message: @Zmbro, can you explain for these?()  Also there's another discussions at  Talk:The_Storm_Before_the_Calm#Euro_label, you can make any comment below.  2402:1980:82B1:74F9:0:0:0:1 (talk) 06:11, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: As QuietHere said over there, per Template:Infobox_album#label "it says "Only the record label that the album was originally released on should be specified." "Originally" in this case is referring to release date, not nationality, and from everything I've seen the release was day-and-date simultaneous in all territories." There were more than four labels in the linked cases, and they were all released simultaneously, therefore they all belong there. – zmbro (talk) (cont) 15:31, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: But also says "record label should be mentioned in the article, for example in a Release history section (in different countries in this case)." For example: Ellie Goulding albums were released by Polydor in the UK and Interscope in the U.S., then @SnapSnap prefers Polydor as the main label.

thread_title:  Labels from countries 

message: I noticed that this album infobox seems to be the only one to have some parameters be linked, compared to the person infobox, film infobox, TV infobox, or even something like ship career infobox. The links are:
*"Genre" linking to music genre
*"Label" linking to record label
*"Producer" linking to record producer
Looking at the article Nirvana (band), the above links never appear in the article body, so I wonder if the linked parameters are vestigial and a little unnecessary if they aren't used in articles. I would like to suggest that we do not need to have these links for the parameters since they are instances of too much generalistic linking. The other infoboxes do not have such links for their parameters. Any objection to removal? Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 21:18, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Weak keep I think they're all valid and could be informative to readers. If the text is going to appear anyway, why not give a link to what exactly a record producer is? I think a lot of us don't have very good personal definitions of a term like that. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 22:07, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removing links 

message: Since television season articles have now been moved and they've lost their disambiguation, there are now possible display title clashes between  and this template. To fix this, editors should use  on this template. Another possible more general fix is to place the italic code inside Module:Is infobox in lead so only when this template is the lead template it should handle italicization of the article title.

replies: text: This is a tricky thing about infoboxes: they can really spiral out of control quickly (e.g. look at most cricket players that have wildly detailed statistics). If we include the cover artist, what about conductors, arrangers, engineers, mixers, masterers? Slippery slope arguments are generally weak, so I won't rely just on that, but rest assured that lots of pretty tertiary parameters would be added. Ultimately, I think that if you're looking for an overview of the most basic facts about an album, the cover artist is rarely one of them and is something that would be covered in the text of the article. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 00:46, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: The cover artist is probably the most missed parameter, see "search archive" on top. It is equal to that of the director and also groundbreaking for an era. Lettres (talk) 13:29, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
