Someone had added a cleanup template to the track listing section, which i removed. If you really want it to be there, please explain what should be cleaned up. bbx 13:09, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] statue on the cover??

hey, that statue of an angel on the cover, i think it exists somewhere.. does anybody know where it is?? --PASSIVE (Talk|E-Mail) 17:41, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Coincidentally, I just ran into a picture of it on the web. Do a search for Nightwish on flickr.com and you'll see it passing by.—♦♦ SʘʘTHING(Я) 17:45, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Its Called "Angel of grief" and was orginal made in 1894 original by William Wetmore Story. But there is also one at Stanford university, which was made in the eraly 1900, and is as I understand much bigger. 22 August 2006

Interestingly it also appears on the cover of Evanescence EP from 1998. —Ben FrantzDale 01:51, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Album Numerology

It says on the page that 'Once' is the sixth album from Nightwish; isn't it the fifth? The previous album 'Century Child' is marked as the fourth, and 'Once' comes right after, making it fifth.

The only reason 'Once' would be marked as the sixth album is if you count the EP 'Over the hills and far away' as being an album, but you shouldn't do that: Full-length studio albums are albums. EPs are regurgitations*.

  • There's only five Nightwish albums, but there's 21 if you count all the remixed material. But you shouldn't do that.JimmmyThePiep 03:33, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Nightwish - Nemo.ogg

Image:Nightwish - Nemo.ogg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] "The Falador Massacre"

This particular section needs to be either heavily edited or completely deleted. It does not contribute anything meaningful to the article, is confusing, lacks clarity and relevance, and fails to display rationale behind its statements. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Felojiro (talk • contribs) 20:21, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] DVD-Audio version

I see that there is no mention of the DVD-Audio version of Once. It would be helpful to list any mastering differences, bonus videos, bonus songs, and/or the differences in bit-rates and quality. I do not own the DVDA so I do not feel qualified to talk about it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.28.228.112 (talk) 05:38, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
