Please stop adding the album cover artist to the navbox. He is not a member of the band, and as such inclusion is tangential and WP:UNDUE. Artists have multiple aspects to their careers, so to tie them to bands is problematic. To give another example, we do not include Vaughan Oliver in {{Pixies}} or {{The Breeders}}, etc, etc. The artist should be adequately linked in the individual articles for the works that they have worked on, so navbox inclusion should be unnecessary - i.e., you wouldn't need to navigate from non-directly related articles. --woodensuperman 15:09, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Not only is James Marsh's art an important aspect of Talk Talk's carreer, but so is Talk Talk an important aspect of James Marsh's carreer — his website features a whole Talk Talk projects section. The prints he sells are, except two, almost entirely Talk Talk. He published a book about the band, for expletive's sake. I agree with you that mentioning Marsh on Template:Ross Macdonald would be WP:UNDUE, but from these examples it should now be obvious that Marsh considers his work with Talk Talk probably the most important aspect of his carreer, and uses it to promote his other work. You mention Vaughan Oliver. He created art for multiple artists, but primarily for a single label — and thanks to you, i have just added him to Category:4AD. I raise you a Stanley Donwood, who is in a similar relationship to Radiohead as Marsh is to Talk Talk. I also raise you a Roger Dean who is mentioned in Template:Yes (band) and is in Category:Yes (band) and Category:Asia (band) despite his relationship with either band being even more sketchy.
