I would like to update the current info box image to a later image. The current image is from 2018 and is quite outdated. Charlie.j.Mashford199 (talk) 05:55, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
Not done: Hello Charlie.j.Mashford199, and welcome to Wikipedia! A very common reason why images on Wikipedia appear to be updated is due to our 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, 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 edit request.
- Cheers, and happy editing! —Sirdog (talk) 06:35, 30 April 2023 (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. FilBenLeafBoy (talk) 17:22, 10 May 2023 (UTC)

See Petridis (2023) on this matter.[1] The jury decision went in Sheeran's favor. See also Lee (2023).[2] RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 05:56, 6 May 2023 (UTC)

Suggest "Suffolk" (county) gets a link for consistency - as in "Framlingham, Suffolk" - since "West Yorkshire" has one... 2A00:23C8:1382:F201:B5A6:1DB0:AAFF:688F (talk) 21:21, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
