See, this is one of the better examples of why including the marketing text on the back of a publication can be a bad idea. This publisher's summary is ''very'' misleading. It makes it sound like Courtney and Sladen "teamed up" (actually that phrase is used precisely) to make something new and exciting. In fact, Courtney's bit was 10 years old at the time of release, and Courtney and Sladen were never in the same studio to record this thing. Do we actually ''need'' the publisher's summary here?

:The publisher's summary has a place. There should then be a note explaining what really happened. | |||
:The reason the summary has a place is if someone finds the item, they can quickly compare it to what they see on the Wiki, and then make a more informed decision as to whether they want to purchase it. -- [[User:Sulfur|sulfur]] 11:40, July 4, 2010 (UTC) | |||
