Image & evidence rule
Seeing cover art online does not equal permission to republish it.
For public catalog pages, I AM GO-GO records the source URL, release identity and image credit. Cover art is published only when reuse is cleared or a photograph of an actual copy is supplied for the catalog.
Research rule: no result in the sources checked is labeled “no release.” It stays “not found in sources checked” until stronger evidence changes the record.
