211:, when at the moment the issue is undecided and later on we as a community might decide the images are OK. If, on the other hand, the article gets Featured and we later decide that the images must go then go they must, automatically. I don't see any impediment to promoting the article in this state because it's Featured status won't make it immune from a future policy which says these images can't be used. So, what to do? I'd prefer to leave the images there until the issue is decided one way or another, because I feel the article is improved greatly by their presence; but if the only way to get this list Featured is to remove them I suppose I'll do it. It's been a long stated aim of 638:
section. Images have been restored (you couldn't see a version with images because it uses templates for the formatting). It just isn't the same without them, I agree with you. I'm happy with the article as it now stands; if it can't get Featured as is and there are no actionable suggestions to make it so, I guess you are right I shall have to accept it and be content with Good Article status. All that said, the article should be judged on its merits not on how impressive the band were and how much of an impact their catalogue made or didn't make, and I still maintain that's it's one of the best discographies on Knowledge (XXG). It's the
312:. Apart from the covers I see the following issues: references are not properly formatted, title and scope of list do not coincide (the films and books are not part of the discography, a more proper name for the article would be "The KLF publications" or similar). The whole section of KLF communications should be moved to its own article with just the summary being left here. Purpose of the "additional communicators" section is not clear. -- 556:. The first is a list of releases by the record label and the second is a list of guest contributors to albums. I think the problems with the name and the history behind the various sections and where they came from shows that the KLF project are having difficulty finding the correct home for this material. This article is currently a bit like a collection of stuff that didn't make it to 522:- many record labels or groups have official "releases" that weren't actually records). However I do think that the KLF kollaborators should be in their own page. Pages that are a list of "minor characters" are the encouraged practice - this list of KLF kollaborators can then have sub-headings and hence they can be wiki linked from other articles. My main problem with the move is that 621:
point, we'd have to be able to say that this was one of the very best discographies on Knowledge (XXG) and can be held up as an example to others. In addition, it has to be unique on the Internet. Many web sites (official and fan) have very, very good discographies so that is a hard challenge. IMO, it really does need thumnail album/single covers.
232:". That is, unfortunately, what I think is going to happen. I cannot see the value of having the covers in the article, especially when the albums themselves are so prominently linked and have articles of their own. In addition, current Fair Use discussion makes me hesitant to promote lists with so many Fair Use images. -- 616:
be a featured list? I should note that I haven't managed to find a version of this article with pictures of albums/singles on it, so can't comment on what that looked like. The current formatting won't win any prizes and there are many other discographies that I think are presented better. The track

In what way are the images anti-fairuse? While the rename is more suitable (especially given the various names used) the removal of the images has left the article appearing to be poor quality and unfinished. While still comprehensive the overall effect is negative. I know we have to obey guidelines

link, that's a helpful page. I see that the issue is undecided, and I firmly assert that our image use is fair both legally and morally. If it is later decided that this position is wrong, we can remove the images. I'm sure it need not be a barrier to our candidacy given that the position is unclear
620:
A discography could be a featured list, but to "Exemplify Knowledge (XXG)'s very best work. Represent what Knowledge (XXG) offers that is unique on the Internet." it has got to be quite impressive. I really doubt the KLF have produced enough material for one to be impressed by any list. To win this
253:
Yes, I see. You know the ironic thing is that KLF is said by many to mean "Kopyrite Liberation Front"; they've deleted their entire back catalogue and have no further commercial interest in it. I know that's not likely to change the minds of those who have fair use issues but it causes me a little
624:
In summary, I'd recommend you create small to medium sized articles covering cohesive KLF-related topics. If individually these aren't impressive enough to be featured, then you'll just have to accept that. I don't think combining them does the reader any favours. I would like to add that I think

due to length issues. For a short while it was a standalone article, but we felt that the information on who besides Drummond and Cauty appeared on their recordings was suitable material for the discography. Again, if we rename it to KLF Communications "additional communicators" makes more sense.

Image source: the catalogue number and copyright owner of each scan is now given. I don't believe that who scanned it is material, AFAIK there is no copyright in the 2D, flat reproduction of another copyrighted work, i.e. the owner of the artwork holds a copyright but the scanner doesn't. In many

Thanks for the comments. I see a consensus on the contributors issue; I've commented that section out and certainly it looks better without it. I'm not sure yet whether to split it back out to another article or dump it. I'm not a fan of short, context-free articles so I might quietly dump that
138:
Sorry, image fair use rationales and related points were something I meant to sort out before the nomination went live and totally forgot (we've unfortunately lost a WikiProject member, so there's been a delay between Peer Review and FLC). I will attend to it and report back. Other points: this
601:
The third section is a problem. As a non-fan, I'm really struggling to get excited about such a collection of bits and bobs. If each album/single's page mentioned who contributed to that product, isn't that enough? Sometimes having too much information means that the important stuff gets lost.

has been discussed more informally before, and I'm the one that added it to that page. I think their fair use claim is questionable, in that they are not very informative in this context. Also, it adds considerably to the length of the page without adding a lot of encyclopedic value.

The other sections - about their record label, publications and the additional performers on their works - do indeed increase the scope, and are intended to. Let's examine the sections:
