As Bitter:Sweet redirects to Bitter:sweet, maybe this article should be moved to Dirty Laundry (Bitter:sweet) or, even better, Dirty Laundry (Bitter:sweet song)? MSGJ 12:08, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The name of the group is Bitter:Sweet, with a capital S (see www.bittersweetmusic.com or album covers etc.) I don't know why the original creator of Bitter:sweet used the lower case s, perhaps because he thought most people wouldn't know and would use the lower case by default for searches. Although the real problem is people searching, who don't know there is a colon or use the lower case semi-colon by default (How would they know? Most people looking for a song do so precisely because they've only Heard It) I originally used "Dirty Laundry" as the submission title (because I had started at The Mating Game album track list), in order to distinguish it from the existing Dirty Laundry article about the 1982 song by Don Henley. Which is obviously not the way to do it. So I asked the reviewer User talk:Leujohn if he could change them to Dirty Laundry (song Bitter:Sweet) and Dirty Laundry (song Don Henley) or Dirty Laundry (song 2006) and Dirty Laundry (song 1982). He actually used the neater, less redundant and more efficient (given the limited width of the search box) Dirty Laundry (Bitter:Sweet) and renamed the other as Dirty Laundry (Don Henley).

Thank you for removing the redundant/inactive line breaks in the main section, left over from my frustrated attempts to get the type correctly justified. However the one at the end of line 1 was used to prevent the natural line breaking in the middle of Shana Halligan and the one at the bottom doing the same with Coupe de Ville.

Okay, I have moved Bitter:sweet to its correct capitalisation Bitter:Sweet. Lines will break part way through wikilinks. This is normal. And it's pointless to try to stop it because other people's browsers will be different widths to yours ;) MSGJ 09:11, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, that should have occured to me. I'll go back and re-edit the pages I've already done containing futile line breaks and correct the spelling on any old links from pages using the defunct Bitter:sweet spelling.BarbarianHorde (talk) 11:07, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
