[edit] Page creation

I'm not quite sure how album page creation works, but I've copied the information box from Ein kleines bisschen Horrorschau and put in the information from Kauf MICH!. All the translations are my own, so I'm not sure if they'd match up with any other English translations. I could have translate the song summaries as well, but I'm not sure if that might be atypical of album pages. Most of the information is simple summarization from the German page, however, the information on the hidden track following Katastrophen-Kommando isn't in the German version. I thought I saw it there once before, but I don't think it's there anymore. It's not that secret if you play the CD in anything with a readout displaying duration (as it reads 17:57) or time remaining. I'm not sure which song it is (I think "So ein schöner Tag" maybe). Lastly, there's an image of the album cover on the German page, but I'm not sure if it's open for use in the English version. UltimaGecko (talk) 15:02, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Capitalization

I moved the article from Kauf MICH! (album) to Kauf Mich! (album) in accordance with conventional English capitalization guidelines, but the article was immediately moved back to Kauf MICH! (album). Wikipedia:Manual of Style (capital letters) is quite clear on this, so unless "MICH" is an acronym, it should be written as "Mich" regardless of how it is capitalized on the CD itself. --DAJF (talk) 15:12, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

I'm not going to bother changing them back throughout the article, since I don't know the guidelines on most of the stuff here, but the song titles of "Kauf Mich!" and "Wünch Dir was" are capitalized in every instance they are mentioned in the CD (that is: always Kauf MICH! and Wünsch DIR was). If it wasn't linguistically intended by the artists they would read "mich" and "dir" (although "Dir" is also possible). I don't think it's all that important for the article title, however.
