Re: Geoff Nicholls

Hello. Geoff Nicholls was not an official member of Black Sabbath on the albums Heaven and Hell, Mob Rules, Live Evil, Born Again, Dehumanizer, Live at Hammersmith, or The Dio Years. The obvious way to prove this is to view the band photos from each album. Nicholls is in none of them. If Nicholls was a band member at this time, he would be in the photos. Liner notes explicitly separate him from the other members. Of course he deserves to be mentioned, but not as a band member on these albums. This is fact.

Please see WP:ALBUM#Credits. This is not a list of designated "official members". It's a list of who contributed to the album. This is not about promoting Brian May or the photographer listed on Paranoid to band member status.

The business of who is or was an "official member", whatever that means, should be taken to the band page, not the album page.

Anyway, we've had this discussion before. Your use of expressions like "You know this"[1] and "This is fact" suggest you aren't interested in finding a WP:CONSENSUS but imposing your vision on Wikipedia. You might want to re-consider what you're doing here before you are banned again. / edgarde 22:27, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
