I have added a couple of album pages ( The Only Ones and Remains) but they're very brief, just a track listing and an image of the album cover, so if anyone wants to expand them feel free. BTW, 'Babys Got A Gun' in the Remains page track listing is spelt that way (without a " ' ") on the cover and LP itself, so it's not a typo on my part. Ian Dunster 14:16, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
The band photo currently in use isn't free, and seems to have a dubious fair use claim. Does anyone have a genuinely free (e.g. self-taken, public domain) picture that could replace this before the current one is picked up and deleted? Notinasnaid 12:22, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Did you read the claim made for it on the image page? The words make a claim that simply is not valid. "It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of videotape covers to illustrate the videotape in question ... qualifies as fair use". This picture is illustrating a band article, not an article about a videotape. It seems pretty clear cut. Notinasnaid 07:15, 28 March 2007 (UTC) Less obvious, but still a major problem, the image has been cropped so as to remove the video name etc. An cover illustration, even if used under a valid claim for fair use, cannot be cropped for detail.

I am forced to semi-protect this page for one day, the amount of spam originating from multiple IP addresses is very high. —— Eagle101 Need help? 15:45, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
http://www.network54.com/Forum/285921/ has been repeated deleted from the external links by a "spam bot" which has been programmed to remove all network54 links. It is the most active Only Ones forum on the internet. There are no Only Ones Official or Unofficial websites. Does anyone have a legitimate reason for it not to be listed here? If there is no objections within the next 7 days, I will re-instate the link.

The link had been there for months. A spam bot removed it as they were getting rid of network54 links. I re-instated it as there are so few dedicated Only Ones sites and is worthy of inclusion. The spam bot started to revert my edits, then you started repeatedly reverting the edits whils refusing to discuss the matter.

The guideline only says "normally to be avoided". It doesn't say a forum cannot and mustn't be linked to. If there was an official website and forum and numerours fansites there would be little need for the forum to be linked. As it stands, there are no Only Ones websites at all, official or unofficial. It is the only solely Only Ones dedicated website or forum on the internet.

Apologies for the lyric link. Steveritt 23 April 2007
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

I am so sick of reading music articles that claim virtually every song is about drugs! In this case the writer of this song has even directly responded to this claim and refuted it saying it’s not a hidden message song but about what it apparently is about: girls, and love.
It’s a symptom of Idiocy to believe in the drugs and music myth that artists all write music on drugs—not true—and that somehow every song that has cryptic lyrics is somehow about drugs. As an artist myself, I also understand why so few songs are about drugs: it’s a vulgar topic that doesn’t lead to much inspiration.
There’s no citation for the stupid assertion either.it also accused the band of having songs that are ALL about drugs as it’s dominant the E. WHERE IS THE CITATION? Just giving my two cents. Wikipedia is not respected as a source of information and this is one of the reasons why. People in basements with no knowledge about music and art perpetuating the myth that creativity must all be drugs because they themselves can’t fathom creating beautiful and obscure things because they aren’t artistically talented . It’s actually the opposite of the myth, drugs kill creativity, hence Peter not writing any songs after the band broke up and picking up crack and heroin regularly. He only wrote songs again when he temporary quit drugs in the 90s only to use again and not create. I can also give anyone a million examples of how drugs crush creativity and how so few songs are actually about them more in passing references. 2600:1012:B1B8:AECA:F903:1163:5B6D:4B14 ( talk) 06:51, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
