Non-production credits

I added all of Andy's production credits known to All Music Guide today. I did not add the albums on which he's not credited as a musician or a producer, though. It is possible that he did production on these albums as well, or that we'll one day want a more complete history, so I'm preserving ones I omitted here -Meegs 12:11, 15 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Table for King Diamond discography

The issue is that an anon user introduced tables but only for King Diamond albums on which Andy LaRocque played. The page is fragmented into two parts and the ordinary text list of albums was enough.

The tables contain the names of the albums, year, record company and a 50px picture of the album cover. However that is simlpy unnecessary because 50px pictures aren't very visible, no additional information about the albums is placed (except for the record companys name but who wants to know that) and the page is crowded and hard to read through. And the table uses a lot of space between the rows!

Since the table is somewhat un-needed and some users preffer just text I propose that we remove it. If anybody disagrees with it please state so on this talk page. This is also the problem on the King Diamond page. Death2 17:13, 19 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with all of the points above and would like to return to a text-only discography. ×Meegs 17:37, 19 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Aesthetics aside, since the albums are not even mentioned in the text of the article, their images do not qualify for fair use as described at WP:Fair use#Images. ×Meegs 18:10, 19 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Additional mention of his collaboration with King Diamond should be emphasized. That was really what made him famous and was his main gig, in my opinion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.249.100.46 (talk) 11:17, 3 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
