There is a man named Simon Hury in the member timeline listed as "fan." This is ridiculous, he is not a member of the band. JohnnyPStevens (talk) 15:28, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
- I don't see a Hury in this listicle nor the article whose talk page you're in, what are you talking about? Carlinal (talk) 15:35, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
- Not done: Name not in this article. - FlightTime (open channel) 16:29, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
- What are you talking about...? Hury is not listed in the article at all? ― VAUGHAN J. (t · c) 00:31, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what you mean. I checked earlier today, and I saw no mention of Simon Hury in the member timeline. HorrorLover555 (talk) 02:24, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
Recent infobox edits[edit]
To @FMSky, I'm a little confused at your recent edits to the infobox, which includes using an outdated SVG of the band's logo (without removing the other logo's appearance) and removing the parameter for the head image size. Could you give an explanation? Carlinal (talk) 18:38, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
- MOS:IMGSIZE "Except with very good reason, a fixed width in pixels (e.g. 17px) should not be specified, because it ignores the user's base width setting. " -FMSky (talk) 18:47, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
- Perfectly understandable, thanks.
- I'll add over the logo thing, however, that I don't really see a point in it appearing in the infobox, since I believe it would be better used to further illustrate the origins of AC/DC's name and branding. Not to say adding official branding in infoboxes is a bad thing, but I don't see it as the best solution in this case. Carlinal (talk) 18:56, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
