[edit] Move?

Considering the album's tenuous relationship to the TV play (little more than the title track, and a few song titles and chord sequences) would it not make more sense to move this to The Buddha of Suburbia (album), with *(soundtrack) working as a redirect instead?

[edit] Copyright infringement?

The bulk of this article is a lengthy quote from the UK album's liner notes. We could probably use a brief excerpt as fair use, but not the amount that's quoted here. -- Heath 66.32.1.24 01:51, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Followup

Wikipedia:Copyrights advises, It is not the job of rank-and-file Wikipedians to police content for possible copyright infringement, but if you suspect one, you should at the very least bring up the issue on that page's talk page. Others can then examine the situation and take action if needed. The most helpful piece of information you can provide is a URL or other reference to what you believe may be the source of the text. I did that on January 2, above.

When that fails, the advice continues, If some of the content of a page really is an infringement, then the infringing content should be removed, and a note to that effect should be made on the talk page, along with the original source. If the author's permission is obtained later, the text can be restored.

If all of the content of a page is a suspected copyright infringement, then the page should be listed on Wikipedia:Copyright problems and the content of the page replaced by the standard notice which you can find there. If, after a week, the page still appears to be a copyright infringement, then it may be deleted following the procedures on the votes page.

Not quite all of the article is a suspected copyright infringement, but certainly the lion's share was, so I have listed the page accordingly. -- Heath 68.118.23.158 21:55, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

I have just removed the copyvio section. If anyone wants to see the content and its source it's located at this url. Otherwise we will rely on good sourcing and writing to rebuild this article's length. gren グレン ? 19:11, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
