Talk:Endless Wire (The Who album)

message: The article says "The release date had been pushed back to October 30, 2006, due to drummer Zak Starkey's commitments to work with Oasis on their album Don't Believe the Truth and on their 2005 tour."
Given that it turns out that Zak only played on a single track from the album, is this commonly-held belief actually true?  If they had held the album up so that Zak would be available, wouldn't he have performed on most of the album?  The liner notes suggest that the delay was caused by Pete holding the songs back until he was really confident that they were done, and that the delay caused Zak to be unavailable, not the other way around. -Erik Harris 18:27, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Whether or not true, it's not important enough to be in the lead, which is supposed to be a summary of the article not a repository for random facts. However, given that the statement's veracity has been challenged without reply since October last year, and given that what you say about the liner notes is correct, I've removed it all together. --kingboyk 10:02, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Comes from a press release according to the article itself. Quoting a press release at such length goes beyond "fair use" imho, so unless the press release was released to the public domain or under a compatible free licence (which would require proper attribution) it smells like a copyvio. --kingboyk 10:04, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
