[edit] <^>v!!This album is connected!!v<^>

The article is missing Elephant Stone, which is found on every current version of the album. And the real version of the song, not the drumbot version.

It wasn't on the original release. It was added primarily for the American market. WesleyDodds 08:27, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
If you have a version of the album which features both Elephant Stone and Fool's Gold then it is the US version - even now the true UK release can be bought new with the original listing. (80.193.99.43 (talk) 11:08, 21 April 2008 (UTC))

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

Image:Stoneroses.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 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 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 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.

[edit] Links

I don't know who it is (obviously) who keeps removing my website links from the external links pages of every page relating to The Stone Roses but if you could stop it... then that'd be coool. ta.

The url link for the Discography site - The Definitive Stone Roses Discography is www.orelp502.co.uk and not www.thisisthedaybreak.co.uk. I should know, I designed it and paid for the domain. Cheers. TheJSU - http://www.john-squire.com 08:41, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Release date

Hey guys, I modified the release date to March 13th and provided a cite. In addition to the BBC stating that it was released in March, Discogs also agrees with the March date. However, I have seen a few references to May as well (from generally less reliable sites). I guess an easy way to know for sure is whether someone on here can recall when the album was released. Any help on that is appreciated! --Star shaped 14:06, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
