Correct version of the cover

[edit]

Seeking input from any and all editors here. Concerning the cover used in the infobox, File:Frozen 2 soundtrack.png, the user Jedi94 has insisted on changing the cover to this version with a smaller icicle that features the text "Original Motion Picture Soundtrack" at the top and "Original Songs by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez" at the bottom, but has only cited an obscure Japanese website as the source for this (the Japanese cover is not even this version anyway—it is this, with the Japanese text on it). This version from a Japanese website is clearly not the main version of the cover; my version of the cover, seen here, is used on most Western download and streaming services—Apple Music and Tidal, and although I do not think Spotify features the standard edition of the soundtrack, they do have the deluxe edition, which is simply a white version of this with "Deluxe Edition" written at the top.

For the digital cover, we should be using the version most online outlets featuring the soundtrack for purchase or streaming use. I cannot find any that use the version with more text on it. What does everybody think? Ss112 04:21, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The cover I added is the one that appears on the standard soundtrack album's physical release. All the physical CDs in the North American release appear as such. Here is a better source, as it appears on AllMusic, and once again here in a review by the Associated Press. Physical versions of album cover art are more reliably consistent as they tangibly exist, as opposed to digital versions, as the latter can vary by online publishers and services. ~ Jedi94 (Want to tell me something?) 04:52, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Quite rarely do digital covers differ between "online publishers and services". If anything, digital covers are more uniform. I don't know where you're getting your anecdotal evidence on "digital versions" from, but I upload album covers regularly, cite online download and streaming services for new releases, and update music charts on Wikipedia every week, and I can tell you services almost always a consistent cover for albums. Besides, that is not the physical cover used in the rest of the world (and it's not even the cover used for all physical versions in America—the vinyl cover is apparently this). For example, I live in Australia, and that is not the cover used on physical editions here (this is), and by the looks of it, other nations' physical editions differ as well (even when they don't use a different translated title than Frozen II). The digital version transcends just one nation's physical version, as Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal and so on are available and accessible in over a hundred countries and would be showing the version I uploaded for the English version of the soundtrack in all of them. Besides, you are not citing the physical version—it's not a scan, nor a photograph of the physical edition. You are uploading a digital version of only the American physical cover. The simpler digital version is obviously used more widely because it contains just "Disney" and the internationally recognisable Frozen logo/title and not more of the English text. There is no guideline for album covers stating we should prefer physical versions that pertain to only or primarily North America. While I am aware it is an American film, the digital version used quite uniformly on over a hundred countries' online stores is far more widely used, recognisable and common.
