Images
editA lot of the image links arent image links. Just pointing this out. 216.222.255.113 22:56, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
More importantly, the images are probably all copyright violation with no valid fair use rationale (they are samples of the author's work which are not the subject of any critical commentary) - see WP:FAIR counterexample 6 JohnGray 22:19, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
Album art omission
editIf I'm correct, I believe Roger's work on the album "Charge!" by Paladin, released on the Bronze label around 1972, has been left off the list. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.11.60.223 (talk) 17:29, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
The Avatar Question
editShould there be a section in this article referring to the number of similarities of some of the creatures and landscapes of Pandora in the film Avatar and the Art work of Roger Dean of which there is much discussion whether he should claim compensation from James Cameron? Can any one find and article on this issue from a valid source? Rifleman jay (talk) 16:01, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
Book section
editI feel that a book section should be started. He did covers for a few books as well. Notably, "Views Over Atlantis" by John Mitchell. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.239.164.135 (talk • contribs) 19:55, May 4, 2011
Dragon's Dream
editThe description of Dragon's Dream reads like biased sales puff ripped off the back cover or somewhere. Even if it is original, it needs a copyedit. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 20:30, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
Lighthouse - One Fine Morning
editSomeone just removed the cover for Lighthouse's One Fine Morning, claiming that it had actually been painted by Brad Johanssen. Dean actually did do the iconic cover. What caused confusion for the anon editor, was that Brad Johanssen did a cover for a different release of that album. Links: Dean's cover, showing no artist credit page showing the Johanssen cover front cover image from that page back cover, showing artist credit It should be clear from these images that Dean did do the cover, and Johanssen did a different cover. -Freekee (talk) 02:08, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
