There have been several attempts to change track lengths and names. The table here shows such variations. Please note that the article is currently based on the original 1973 Vinyl release.

Genre
Consensus has concluded that Progressive rock alone is the most suitable genre to put in the infobox. While arguments have been put forward for other genres such as rock or psychedelic rock, discussions tend to go round in circles and the status quo of a single genre is the preferred option.
This article is written in British English, which has its own spelling conventions (colour, travelled, centre, defence, artefact, analyse) and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other varieties of English. According to the relevant style guide, this should not be changed without broad consensus.
I don't understand. Is showing the cover of an LP in an encyclopedia article about said LP not the epitome of fair use? Certainly moreso than a vectorized facsimile (aka derivative work)?
An album that came out yesterday will have its [most definitely copyrighted] sleeve in the article. Whether the artwork was submitted for copyright in the UK vs. the US in 1973 shouldn't matter, and even if it did, an svg that looks a whole lot like it is not an appropriate replacement.

The SVG version is nominated for deletion in Commons. I just found out someone replaced the PNG version with SVG one, despite stale/failed discussion at FFD. Oh, and that discussion was solely about the album cover's US copyright status. By the way, to what "album" were you referring in the 2nd paragraph? –George Ho (talk) 08:00, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ah okay, then we're all in agreement, 😂. Regarding the second paragraph, it was completely hypothetical. I just meant that any "album released yesterday" would automatically have its cover used for the associated Wikipedia article, and no one would have any qualms about it.

I assume this is why the album cover on the top of the page is such low quality then. Cause I was planning to add a higher quality image, but then read about the image copyright stuff and backed down. AnonReason (talk) 01:30, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I note that we don't mention the official release of this 4.0 original mix on the Immersion Boxset; is there some reason I'm not seeing here, or should I write it up?
