Requested change: Add type "video"[edit]

{{editprotected}} Requested change, needed to merge Template:Infobox Album and Template:Infobox music DVD as discussed at WT:ALBUM. While no final decision to merge has been made, I'm prototyping how such a change would work, and this is needed for such a prototype. It can be reverted if we later decide not to merge. Requested changes:

Add the line |video=[[Music video|Video album]] before the line |#default={{{1|}}}.

Can I request for alternatives be added that are invariably going to be used. Not something we should encourage, but we may as well include DVD, dvd, music video, and anything else you can think of that's applicable to the video option, since it's almost guaranteed that over time these variables are ones that will be used in the infobox. Maybe add these as regular terms, but simply using the Light blue color as from video album. --linca linca 14:50, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

PS: as with the previous request, can this changebe made in conjunction with the adjustment at Template talk:Infobox Album/color. --linca linca 14:51, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm removing editprotected because we haven't decided what types to add, if any. Let's discuss at WT:ALBUM#Video infobox, so that we have a larger forum. --PEJL 15:10, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Req: Support "DVD" as alias for "video"[edit]

Please change |video= to |video|DVD=, per WT:ALBUM#Video infobox. --PEJL 10:57, 18 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation of Demo album[edit]

{{editprotected}} Demo album is a disambiguation page. Please disambiguate it to Demo (music).
