Wolfmother discography[edit]

previous FLC (15:40, 1 September 2008) Everything is sorted out from last time and many changes mean it should now be even more ready. Andre666 (talk) 22:14, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved comments from Underneath-it-All (talk)

Comments by Underneath-it-All (talk · contribs) Support

  • Looks good! Just a couple of comments.
  • Videos → Video albums
    • Someone told me to change this before and I did, but changed it back for some reason. Now that you've brought it up I will change it again!  Done
  • Should gold and platinum be capitalized in the lead?
    • I wasn't originally sure about this, but no, they should not be capitalised.  Done

  • Support Good list and remember you don't need to remove chart positions cause other users sais so. --Be Black Hole Sun (talk) 10:10, 18 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oh actually just noted something, if you don't replace the source for the music video directors i'm forced to change my support to oppose. I'm not good spooting problems, so whats the problem with the list Cannibaloki. --Be Black Hole Sun (talk) 17:17, 18 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
What's wrong with the source? It is the official site and for facts like this (as opposed to those like sales) it is reliable, surely. Correct me if I'm wrong, though, by all means. Andre666 (talk) 17:22, 18 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Official websites are not considered reliable sources on wikipedia so if that list is ever goin to become a FL get a more reliable source which is accepted. --Be Black Hole Sun (talk) 19:24, 18 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This may as well be removed now then, because I've looked and looked. I can not be bothered to argue for the reliability of this source, which it really is. Ah well, looks like it won't be FL. Andre666 (talk) 20:37, 18 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

  • "...six singles and one video." → "...six singles, and one video album."
    •  Done, despite the fact that linking to video helps nothing!
  • "In 2005 they released their full-length debut, also called Wolfmother, in Australia..." (this album is called entitled Wolfmother only in Australia? – reword this sentence)
    •  Done - changed to "is also self-titled".
  • The notes about EPs, could be inside of this same table/section. (will become more harmonious ←hmm...)
    • I think the separate Notes section looks more professional, don't you think? Andre666 (talk) 05:50, 19 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • No professional, but perhaps uniform. Cannibaloki 17:36, 19 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Peak chart positions → Peak positions (please, singles table only)
    • What; why?
      • To make the table less stretched vertically. Cannibaloki 17:36, 19 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • "—" denotes a release that did not chart. → "—" denotes releases that did not chart or were not released in that country. (mainly)
    •  Not done "—" denotes a release that did not chart or was not issued. (issued were? – in this subtitle does not add anything!) Cannibaloki 17:59, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • Yes it does. Each "—" is in its own section, and denotes whatever is declared. It denotes that a release did not chart (in the area the "—" is, the same applies to issues in countries). Andre666 (talk) 18:31, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Jay Martin, Michael Angelos, Nate Young → Jay Martin<br />Michael Angelos<br />Nate Young
    •  Done
  • "Apple Tree" (Live) → "Apple Tree" (live); (cleaner and elegant)
    •  Done
  • Where this Other appearances on infobox?
    •  Done
  • Replace Label with Ref. on other appearances; (take a look at Mastodon discography)
    •  Done

Small note Using the band's official website to cite music directors is perfectly fine. indopug (talk) 12:28, 19 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Awesome, thanks. :) Andre666 (talk) 16:57, 19 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - after the many comments to fix issues, it now meets the FL Criteria.--SRX 13:51, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Weak oppose (due to the references)

  • "currently consists of one "- currently is redundant. There'd be little point in this not being "current"...
    • Why? I believe "currently" should be there if the band is still active and likely to release more material, and it should be removed if the band is disbanded and they are not likely to release any more records. Andre666 (talk) 17:30, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • You have no timeframe on "currently" so even if they released a new album and you weren't around to fix the list, it'll be incorrect anyway. As a compromise, you could add "as of September 2008, ..." The Rambling Man (talk) 17:33, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Don't like the non-specific references which the reader has to follow instructions to see.
    • It is not ideal, is there any way to isolate the site's subpages from the flash as standalone pages? Andre666 (talk) 17:30, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • I don't know. Point is that you should seek to reference this material elsewhere if you all you can provide is instructions - I might as well type it into Google myself which pretty much undermines the principle of specific references. The Rambling Man (talk) 17:33, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
        • I do not think there will be references to replace these, but it will be an ongoing search. I think it still meets the FL criteria though, as I have referenced it nonetheless, it just takes more work. Andre666 (talk) 19:08, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose

  • The studio albums table are completely wrinkled, singles table (bottom key) aren't resolved, and refs. for music videos directors include problems per comments above. That's all. Cannibaloki 17:59, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
