[edit]Hey, finally getting around to this, sorry about the wait. I've fixed up the albums tables for you - the extended play section also needs to be like this.
- Firstly the charts; a meantion that they have never charted in the US in the lead wouldn't go astray. Two releases just pipped into the UK charts in the 1990s and one in the Dutch charts. That's all I can find at the moment.
- Only the first label used to release should be listed in tables. Also "records" should be pipelinked out = [[Atlantic Records|Atlantic]]
- Add formats to albums. (CD, digital download, etc)
- Singles table doesn't require labels; also add the UK charts mentioned above.
- You should really go over MOS:DISCOG. It explains that "Non-original or previously-released material used on soundtracks, trailers, commercials, or any other compilation releases" should not be listed. So I'm better a whole load of those you have, would not be there then.
- Soundtracks & tributes should be merged with Various artist compilations and called Other appearances for consistency
- All Music videos require directors with reliable sources; this is usually a tough task.
- What is the significance of the Radio sessions? Were they ever released? Did they get significant coverage somewhere? Where are the sources?
- And as I said in the request page; Discogs and MusicBrainz are not reliable sources. It's a real bummer, but that's the way it has to be, we can't verify the information because it is user-submitted. I recommend, once you have trimmer the list down to original releases only, you could use more of Allmusic, or perhaps just Google the releases, they should pop up in some official sites of the labels, the band, or something (just make sure they're not blogs).
- I will usually point people towards the Featured list that is in the centre of this page; it has all of the articles that are of the best quality, so if you want it to be good, you simply just need to replicate them.
After briefly going over this I came to think it's more of a Peer review, perhaps that's the way to go next time, essentially just a name for exactly this. The list is probably sitting at Start Class due to the refs and style changes needed. Once your done with these comments I'll probably pop in and help out more, if you need clarifying, just hit me up. Cheers. k.i.a.c (talktome - contribs) 11:20, 15 October 2009 (UTC)
