[edit] JDalt17.jpg

The image in this article (Image:JDalt17.jpg) does not currently have any source or copyright information - and so it can now be deleted. I've looked around on google images for the original but can't source it. Does anyone here know where its from or have a free replacement image they could upload?

The image has been deleted. I had notified the uploader a month or so back, but they have deleted the message on their talk page and taken no action. Evil Monkey - Hello 20:02, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

That page is a copy of the Wikipedia article. boffy_b 21:10, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Songs by Deacon

Is there a point in having a "Other songs by Deacon" section? It's incomplete and ultimately pointless. I recommend deleting it.

[edit] Quote on Pepsi's "We Will Rock You" attributed to Brian May

In an interview with Roger Taylor on the Pepsi rendition of "We Will Rock You", he said that "All of us can make mistakes. By the way, all those things were Brian's ideas..." See http://www.brianmay.com/queen/wwry/moscow/launch.html

[edit] Image

IMHO, the image (the cover of Queen II) is being misused here. It should be used only to illustrate the album - using it to point out individual band members is misuse. Stevage 07:34, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Jimmy Sargison

"As a trained electrical engineer, he often used to Jimmy Sargison up equipment for the band."

What does "Jimmy Sargison" mean?? I suggest replacing this expression with something that is more commonly understood or explain this in a footnote.
