Image

[edit]

I have reverted the image from the promo pic to the photo of the band on stage. I have done this for the following reasons:

  • The promo pic does not clearly represent the subject, as it has been heavily edited. The 'live' photo is a closer representation of the band.
  • "...at the request of the band..." holds no weight here. This is wikipedia, not a private promotional site for the band. Anyone can request removal of images, but through the correct process, and it is unlikely that the current uncontroversial image would be removed.

ok. It would be nice though to be able to replace the image, if only as a decent courtesy to the band. Would it be possible to replace the image with another live picture or a less-edited press picture that we'd upload on wikipedia commons ? Philippe m (talk) 17:37, 2 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, provided it was appropriately licensed. It is possible to have multiple pictures in articles, too - if you have better pics, that are licensed, go ahead! Thanks sparkl!sm hey! 19:18, 2 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
