Also, remember that short verbs (''Is'', ''Are'', and ''Do'') and pronouns (''Me'', ''It'', and ''His'') are capitalized. Do not replicate stylized typography in logos and album art, though a redirect may be appropriate (for example, [[=W=eezer]] redirects to [[Weezer]]).

When necessary, disambiguation should be done using (band), (album), or (song) (such as [[Welcome to Vas Llegas (album)]]; use further disambiguation only when needed (for example [[Mykel and Carli (Black Market Flowers song)]], [[Mykel and Carli (Weezer song)]]. Unless multiple albums of the same name exist, they do not need to be disambiguated any further. For example [[Pinkerton|Pinkerton (Weezer album)]] is unnecessary. Self-titled albums may be conveniently linked to using the self-titled template. For example, <nowiki>{{S/T|The Relationship}}</nowiki> will provide you with an italicized link to the band's self-titled album: {{S/T|The Relationship}}. Disambiguate albums and songs by artist and not by year unless the artist releases multiple albums with the same name. For Weezer's self-titled albums, Weezerpedia differentiates by the color of their album artwork. For exmaple: ''[[Weezer (The Blue Album)]]'' and ''[[Weezer (The Green Album)]]''. When a track is not strictly a song (in other words a composition without lyrics, or an instrumental that is not a cover of a song), disambiguation should be done using (composition) or (instrumental).
