Mid

This article has been rated as Mid-importance on the project's importance scale.

This article was a past project collaboration.

To-do list:

Fair use

Add fair use rationale to all images and sound samples (all except images already labeled free use).
Re-size large images around to 300 pixels (all "fair use" images), other than album covers (already done).

Articles

Expand all articles to at least Start class. Some song stubs can't be expanded and should be redirected to the relevant album article. Use the "Interstellar Overdrive" article as an example when editing a song stub.
Expand all of the Floyd's studio album articles to at least GA status.
See COTM for monthly collabs.

Project building

Add WikiProject Pink Floyd banner {{WPFloyd}} to all appropriate Talk pages.
Personally invite quality editors working on Pink Floyd articles to join the project.

Dominé?[edit]

Wasn't this called "Astronomy Dominé" in the LP release? – Hattrem (talk) 03:11, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Pretty possible, i ran onto this version of name, and i have problem deciding how t tag my mp3 now... Anon. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.61.58.183 (talk) 11:59, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

See first paragraph of the article. The title with an accented "e" appeared in a list of titles from their live set, written in Syd's handwriting, which has been frequently reproduced in books. I don't believe it was ever used on an official release. --A Knight Who Says Ni (talk) 13:45, 19 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ni Ni. Yes, and Roger pronounced it like that in a spoken intro from the stage. Not like "domign" nor "domaine." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.13.188.158 (talk) 22:13, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is how Roger pronounced it. It did have the accent on it on both the original mono and stereo vinyl albums on both the cover and the label. However, it did not have, on either the cover or label of Ummagumma. Mysteriously, the accent resurfaced on the cover and label of A Nice Pair but hasn't appeared on any CDs.

It's spelled Astronomy Dominé, with the french accent aigu, on the original disk release and also on the CD re-release available now on Amazon. It's also how it was pronounced by band members. I think the accented version should be considered the "official" spelling and the wiki page ought to be fixed accordingly. Florin Andrei (talk) 03:14, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
