Can you please update Ed Sheeran's photo to a newer one, not one from 2018, plus he hasn't worn glasses since 2021 [[Special:Contributions/58.179.118.162|58.179.118.162]] ([[User talk:58.179.118.162|talk]]) 21:38, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
:[[File:Red question icon with gradient background.svg|20px|link=|alt=]] '''Not done:''' it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a [[WP:EDITXY|"change X to Y" format]] and provide a [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources|reliable source]] if appropriate.<!-- Template:ESp --> [[User:Tollens|Tollens]] ([[User talk:Tollens|talk]]) 22:34, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
:: {{Reply|Tollens}} and {{Reply|58.179.118.162}} Please give IP users an actual legit response and not an automated one like you are a bot. Actually try to help them. It is more than clear what they want changed. "Provide reliable sources", they are requesting a photo to be changed. Did you even read their request? There is a photo from 2022 but it is not well suited for the infobox because it would need to be cropped. The one from 2018 will have to do for now. We could always crop the 2022 one but I am not sure how to do that. [[User:Bowling is life|Bowling is life]] ([[User talk:Bowling is life|talk]]) 22:43, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
:::{{Reply|Bowling is life}} I assume you are talking about [[:File:Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee 2022 - Platinum Pageant (52124436078).jpg]]. Do you just want a head shot? I can crop down if you want. The mic is only problem as covers part of face. [[User:Keith D|Keith D]] ([[User talk:Keith D|talk]]) 19:09, 28 April 2023 (UTC)
:::: {{Reply|Keith D}} That photo would work. It doesn't necessarily need to be a head shot, maybe we could just cut out some of the background. Like the right side of the photo. [[User:Bowling is life|Bowling is life]] ([[User talk:Bowling is life|talk]]) 22:29, 28 April 2023 (UTC)
:::::{{Reply|Bowling is life}} OK, I have cropped the right-hand side and a little off the top. Here is the result [[:File:Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee 2022 - Platinum Pageant (52124436078) (cropped).jpg]] [[User:Keith D|Keith D]] ([[User talk:Keith D|talk]]) 22:42, 28 April 2023 (UTC)

I would like to update the current info box image to a later image. The current image is from 2018 and is quite outdated. [[User:Charlie.j.Mashford199|Charlie.j.Mashford199]] ([[User talk:Charlie.j.Mashford199|talk]]) 05:55, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
: [[File:Red information icon with gradient background.svg|20px|link=|alt=]] '''Not done:'''<!-- Template:ESp --> Hello {{u|Charlie.j.Mashford199}}, and welcome to Wikipedia! A very common reason why images on Wikipedia appear to be updated is due to our [[WP:NFCCP|policy on the usage of copyrighted images]]. While it would theroretically be possible to use a privately licensed image of Ed Sheeran under [[Fair use|fair use]], policy dictates editors use a free version of a subject when available. These tend to be older images.
: In this particular case, editors are already coordinating in the above section to try and get a freely licensed and more recent photo of Ed Sheeran added to the article. Feel free to participate in that discussion. Such a discussion existing precludes the edit from being performed via an [[WP:ER|edit request]].

:{{not done}} Internal audio samples are generally preferred to external links, which often involve commercial/ promotional elements. See [[Template:Audio]]. Thanks. [[User:Martinevans123|Martinevans123]] ([[User talk:Martinevans123|talk]]) 11:34, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
== Album numbering ==
Sheeran has always distinguished between his "collaborative" studio albums (No.5 ep and No.6 album) and his "solo" studio albums (+×÷=-).
Should we apply the same criteria? Most sources refer to Subtract as Sheeran's fifth studio album and to Equals as his fourth. [[User:FilBenLeafBoy|FilBenLeafBoy]] ([[User talk:FilBenLeafBoy|talk]]) 17:22, 10 May 2023 (UTC)

== Schools ==
Should his secondary schools be included in the infobox? The template advice says: "{{tq|It is usually not relevant to include either parameter for non-graduates, but article talk page consensus may conclude otherwise, as perhaps at [[Bill Gates]].}}" If the schools are notable, such as with many private schools, they are often included, e.g. for [[Charles III|this guy]]. Just askin' for a friend... [[User:Martinevans123|Martinevans123]] ([[User talk:Martinevans123|talk]]) 16:43, 29 September 2024 (UTC)
Suggest "Suffolk" (county) gets a link for consistency - as in "Framlingham, [[Suffolk]]" - since "West Yorkshire" has one...
