What about Sunshine Woman and Sugar Mama? Can they be put under as under album and date: NA? I know they are unreleased but they were still recorded by Led Zeppelin.—

Some observations/comments (don't feel that they need to be acted on, but consider):
Lead – This is quite long (a list should stand largely on its own) and discusses albums, tours, etc. The focus should be on songs. Maybe include a brief mention of who wrote the group songs, how the credits were distributed (music vs. lyrics), how this changed over time, which are more associated with particular members, etc. Although the "cover" writers are noted in the captions, maybe something could be in the lead also (e.g., preference for adapting old blues).
Images – These may be crowding/competing with the table (how does it look on a portable device?). Perhaps reduce the px a bit.
Writers – Since space is limited, consider using the full names for the first appearance, followed by last names only. Also, this field sorts on the first letter of the name. For entries with first and last name, using {{Sort}} would fix this. (But I notice several FLs use all full names and don't sort on the writer field.)
I'm having trouble figuring out the official writers for "Sunshine Woman". The Complete BBC Sessions credits (Bonham, Jones, Plant, and Page). However,
AllMusic credits (Bonham, Jones, Plant, Page, Robert Johnson, and Willie Dixon) while
Discogs credits (Bonham, Jones, Plant, Page, and Dixon). Anyone have an idea of who the official writers of the song are? BeatlesLedTV (

An image of the actual album notes shows: "Jimmy Page/Robert Plant/John Paul Jones/John Bonham/Willie Dixon/Robert Johnson".
[1] The
ISWC (T-919.867.978-6) shows the same, but alphabetically.
[2] Page say they made it up on the spot,
[3] which is probably why all four are credited. Plant however threw in some old blues lyrics, so I guess they decided to play it safe and add Dixon and Johnson (if they'd have done that 45+ years ago, they could have saved a lot in lawyers' fees!). —

The Discogs link added to the article doesn't have any images of the actual album notes that show the songwriter credits and the text doesn't include the correct ones. This is also the case for "The Girl I Love". This is one problem with Discogs – many releases must be sifted through to find the right one. —

Is there a reason why in an article about Led Zeppelin, there is not a single image of Led Zeppelin, instead there are images of other artists?

I thought it would be but other editors at FLC said that because it's a sortable table everyone needs to have links. I personally don't like having all of them but it's what they said. BeatlesLedTV (

It's mentioned in the "
List of Led Zeppelin songs written or inspired by others", but since there are side panel images of the original artists of some of the songs here, I would think mentioning Bert Jansch might be appropriate here as well. I don't ordinarily participate in Wikipedia writing/editing, though, so I'll leave it to the more experienced to judge.
