Hi,everybody (or whoever is in cherge here) I'd just like to be added to the band's line-up, because I'm the author of all of Ainur's lyrics apart from very few literal quotations from the Silmarillion. The complete line-up ( taken from the band's official website) is as follows:

The Line-up is ok on the album page. We list only musicians. Sorry Wilma.

Are you sure, Tuzvihar? Here's a counter-example (from In the Court of the Crimson King): Line-up/Musicians - Robert Fripp / guitar - Greg Lake / bass guitar, lead vocals - Ian McDonald / reeds, woodwind, vibes, keyboards, mellotron, vocals - Michael Giles / drums, percussion, vocals - Peter Sinfield / words and illumination ------------- FREEDOM OF SPEECH GO TO HELL |

Pete Sinfield is an exception.

Hmmh - interesting issue what's coming up here  We have a standard for the discography presentation defined by JOOLZ which says: 3.4 Additional personnel, such as producers, lyricists, engineers etc are excluded But his policy is not known by everyone and was completed last year ... Therefore you will see exceptions here and there. ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/users/Rivertree" rel="nofollow">  |

Non-musician credits can be slotted into the Release Information cubby hole with impunity. See these two lines from Joolz's Album Standard... 4.1 Contains data or description pertaining only to album releases [but not tracks, recording dates etc]
4.5 No specific restriction on additional data, except that it must be brief and succinct
It would be good improvement to have a specific section in the album entry for (Non-Musician) Credits
