I would like to put forward some ideas about the Thompson discography for discussion. It seems to me that there is a case for merging the "Richard Thompson" and "Richard and Linda Thompson" discographies. From a point of view of tracing the career and development of Richard Thompson it makes more sense to have a sequence that runs from "Henry..." in 1972, then on to "Bright Lights" in 1974 through to "Shoot Out The Lights" in 1982 and then continues with "Hand Of Kindness" in 1983.

This seems to make more sense than a "Richard Thomspon discography" that starts with "Henry" in 1972 and then has nothing until "Strict tempo" (which was really a side project) in 1981 and then "Hand Of Kindness" as the next "proper" album. In the meantime Thompson's career, life and art had developed and that development is reflected in the Richard and Linda albums.

Good point. Have a look at the Rush Discography & see how we squared the circle there. What we could do is put all of the albums in chronological order with an extra column for "artist" and colour code the rows for studio/live/compilations. That way we have a full "arc" of everything Richard's done in chronological order. How does that sound? Megamanic 02:14, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

I've just done precisely this - let's discuss the change & either continue or revert depending on what the concensus is. Megamanic 04:34, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

It's not what I had in mind really. I was thinking of the actual album pages and the info boxes therein. To me it seems that the "next" album from "Henry The Human Fly" should be "Bright Lights". The sequence would then carry on through to "Shoot Out The Lights" and then carry on to "Hand Of Kindness".

But that's perhaps looking at it from a Richard Thompson-centric view. Those albums would just as much form as part of a Linda Thompson discography. I'm not sure that it's for wikipedia to present these albums as part of Richard Thompson's artistic development, so probably best to leave it as is.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:FCFCcover.jpg

Image:FCFCcover.jpg 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 Wikipedia articles 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 insure 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 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 06:17, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
