[edit] Infobox reverts

Alright, we seem to have a dispute on our hands, so let me offer my opinion. You said in your last revert, Machchunk: nevertheless it's still a soundtrack. being from an anime doesn't change anything. besides, it non-standardizes the infobox. Actually, the fact that it is from an anime makes all the different because any soundtrack can be a soundtrack, but it are the extra designations added that make it more specific to where it came from. For instince, it can be a movie soundtrack, game soundtrack, anime soundtrack, TV-series soundtrack or something else. It is not just a soundtrack, but an anime soundtrack, and I feel this should still be presented within the article because it makes sense to denote this because those soundtracks were directly from the anime Ouran High School Host Club.

Also, what did you mean when you said "it non-standardizes the infobox"? It may change it's color a bit, but this is only due to a new change given to the Infobox Album template in order to denote a differece between Anime soundtracks and just soundtracks that have no designation assigned to them. -- (十八|talk) 01:08, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

That's the thing; it already says it's an anime soundtrack, so it doesn't really make a difference. We're describing the album itself here, not exactly what it's from. Example: when you linked anime soundtrack in the genre, it redirected to soundtrack. Just because it's from an anime doesn't mean it absolutely HAS to be designated at every single chance.
And when I said "it non-standardizes the infobox", I meant that "Anime soundtrack" is not a supported album type for Infobox Album. Therefore, it is automatically listed in the non-standard infoboxes category.
That said, good job avoiding the 3RR rule and talking about it reasonably here. --Machchunk | make some noise at me 01:56, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
But then using that logic, then what was the reason for Wikipedian's to create a parameter that would alter the appearance of the infobox if the type of soundtrack listed was "Anime Soundtrack" instead of only simply "Soundtrack".
And about that last comment, I always try to talk it out if there's a dispute that won't be resolved simply be reverts, I'll have you know. -- (十八|talk) 02:08, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

I don't know where you got that, but it doesn't.

Now, looking at that, do you see a real reason to specify what kind of media a soundtrack is from? --Machchunk | make some noise at me 05:13, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
And looking at that, this seems to fit more into Television themes anyway. --Machchunk | make some noise at me 05:15, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

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.
