replies: text: It's right there, on the page linked from my edit summary: The material should only be used in the article namespace. They should never be used on templates (including stub templates and navigation boxes) or on user pages. Pretty straightforward. android79 12:20, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Any one could have put that on the page. As far as I can see, there's no logic in saying that one can use an image on an article, but yet not use the same image on a template. The template is subsection or part of the article. Therefore, saying that an image can be used on an article, but not a template which the article uses in incoherent and illogical. Either, the information placed on the help page is incorrect or there's misintepretation on your part. I want some sort of confirmation that that hasn't happened! --161.74.11.24 11:45, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The template is not a subsection or part of the article; that's the point of that guideline. The template is :Template:Michael Jackson. The article is Michael Jackson. One could just as easily apply the template to Fruitcake, which would be in violation of fair use. See Wikipedia_talk:Fair use#Album covers: Strike two lines from policy?. Despite being extensively debated, that language remains. Copyrighted images used solely for decorative purposes are not fair use. android79 13:52, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

message: One of the Jackson 5 tours was just added to the list of concert tours. I don't see any particular reason for this one to be special. Either all the J5 tours should be listed, or none. I think none, since this template seems to focus on his solo career and his life, but don't feel strongly enough either way to revert the edit. GDallimore (Talk) 10:31, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I was about to delete it but now I understand the addition because the Victory Tour was basically the "Thriller" tour. There was no real "Thriller" tour so he performed a solo set of the Thriller songs on that tour. MrBlondNYC (talk) 00:56, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

message: I've restored the template to the version where the main articles come first,  otherwise they are hard to find. I can't understand why Death of Michael Jackson would have been relegated to the "influence on society" section.  SlimVirgin talk|contribs 07:18, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

message: Both guitarists should be included in the MJ template, for they have a decent portion in his music legacy, along with Quincy Jones. Any wikipedian who doesn't agree with this, simply doesn't have much sense of understanding.(LonerXL (talk) 06:16, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed, but by that logic, ALL members from MJ tours should be added...and I'm pretty sure the majority of them don't even have articles. MaJic Talk 2 Me. I'll Listen. 22:30, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I also see your point of view, but Jennifer and Orianthi are the most recognizable members. Whenever Michael performed on tours, his guitarist was ALWAY his "music tour assistant" and right hand woman. The guitarist was always the second star in Michael's shows. We are only cheating ourselves and potential wikipedians who are interested on these two, for if it wasn't for Michael, we never would have known they existed.

message: The rows in the template are spaced out too far apart. Perhaps the row height of every row should be decrease. Otherwise, the template would seem too bulky. Ring me up at my talk page if you want a reply. Regards, ANGCHENRUI Talk♨ 14:44, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Row height should be decreased? 

message: I think Template:The Jackson 5 and this should be merged. Michael and the Jackson 5 are both well known. The Jacksons and Jackson 5 templates should be added as a showable box on this. I'll see if I can work out how to do it and I'll post it here.--79.68.89.251 (talk) 14:15, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

replies: text:  I agree. if you do want to nest them, should should at least use "border=child", as I have done above.  Even so, this is just not readable. 174.56.57.138 (talk) 04:49, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
