This page stores permission links for coverart which is made free for use by the rightsholder(s), under cc-by-nc or otherwise.

Please link to both the release and the page providing permission. If permission is granted by other means, such as an email, please copy the document into a subpage to this one, and provide a link to it from here.

It is not ok to simply add such artwork. Documentation of the permission must also be added here.
