Overlap with singles articles

[edit]

Although there has been some slight trimming, and the addition of the "Main article" links, there is still a very large overlap in the material presented in the "Singles" section and that in each of the articles for the singles themselves. I don't see the real benefit when all the detail on these songs is one click away. I'm not even sure a section called "Singles" is required. If there is something to be said about songs that were not singles, fair enough, maybe in a section called "Songs"? All this duplication just makes the article bloated for no good reason.

  • I added the singles section, because I considered that people would visit more often the main page of the album, and not so much the singles, so I decided to add some background of the singles themselves, I agree it was too much info, so I removed some info and added the links to the main page of the songs, but do you think we should remove that section completely?

As the singles all have articles of their own, I think the section should be removed or, at least, pared down to the bare minimum. I'd be more interested to see a summary of the songs that were not singles - that information is not available in other articles. Martinevans123 (talk) 17:55, 15 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I will try to dig up some info on the non-singles, if I can't I will remove info from the singles section or remove the section completely. Info4allthepeople (talk) 23:51, 15 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. One of your later edits removed the paragraph about "Sepia" which was apparently sourced to Price (1999). Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 08:57, 16 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I think the article looks in much better shape now. But I'm surprised you've remove some songs altogther! Even if you personally don't consider them notable, provided they are supported by a WP:RS I think they could be included. After all, unlike the singles, they are not discussed anywhere else at all in the encyclopedia. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:27, 16 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Do you think I should include all songs? Don't want the article to become very hard to read and too long, I can try pairing up the songs though. Info4allthepeople (talk) 19:31, 16 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
So I decided to remove the singles from the songs section, because they have their own articles and I kept the other songs because it has referenced information that is not available anywhere else in Wikipedia. Hope it looks better now. Info4allthepeople (talk) 19:50, 16 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I think it's much better now. Thanks for your efforts. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:55, 16 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
