Development

Over the weekend, a Facebook account posing as Winehouse had quoted him as saying, "I don't think [Beyonce] brings anything to it."

However, the Amy Winehouse Foundation tweeted that the profile was fake and "does not represent Mitch, the family or Foundation."

He tweeted: "I like Beyoncé's cover and have no probs."

Regarding this edit, is there a way to communicate the comment in prose without including the quotation and without risking libel? --Another Believer _(Talk) 14:56, 17 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Track listing

Regarding this edit, I think more people are interested in the performers than the producers. If we are to include parameters for producers, I think we should include parameters for performers as well. If that is too much information to present, I propose reverting to the version without producers (and perhaps include details in the prose?). --Another Believer _(Talk) 23:25, 6 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Both information is included. — Statυs (talk, contribs) 23:30, 6 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I mean not as parentheticals next to the titles. Performers should be in their own column, just like the writers and producers. --Another Believer _(Talk) 23:34, 6 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I raised the question here. --Another Believer _(Talk) 21:59, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

The album was released today and I figure it should be noted that it includes a fair amount of dialogue from the movie within a number of the tracks. The word "dialogue" was not included once in the article.

Also it should probably be noted that the regular version has the red based cover and the deluxe version target is releasing is a black based cover. --Anon: 11:49, 7 May 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.117.171.250 (talk)

According to the template documentation for album infoboxes (see Template:Extra album cover): If the album has been released with different album covers, they can be added to the infobox using this template. However, per WP:NFCC#3 use of non-free content is to be minimal, and not to be used if one item can convey equivalent significant information. An alternate cover that is significantly different from the original and is widely distributed and/or replaces the original has generally been held to pass this criterion. Also, an alternate cover that is the subject of specific (sourced) critical commentary passes the criteria for inclusion. Covers that are essentially similar, despite differences in colouring, poses, text, etc, should not be included. --Another Believer _(Talk) 22:02, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Production

The following paragraph should IMO be deleted. In the US permission to record a cover of a song is not required. Twitter quotes from a songwriter's father don't seem to me like encyclopaedic content.

"On April 2, 2013, Amy Winehouse's father used his Twitter profile to claim that Beyoncé had not informed him of her plans to cover "Back to Black" and that he wanted income from the song to go to his Amy Winehouse Foundation. He wrote, "I don't know this but what if Beyoncé gave £100,000 to foundation. Do you know how many kids that would help? Just putting it out there." He later added, "Let me repeat. This is the first I have heard of Beyoncé doing Amy's song." Kia Makarechi of The Huffington Post noted that Beyoncé did not use the song on a personal record so it was "slightly curious" for Winehouse to ask her for a donation. Winehouse later used his Twitter account to write: "I like Beyoncé's cover and have no probs." However, upon hearing the full-length track, he wrote on his Twitter profile, "I just heard the Andre part of Back to Black. Terrible. He should have let Beyoncé do it all.""
