Talk:Elvis Presley phenomenon

Stats from American Demographic Magazine
Not sure what year these stats were taken from but they seem very unimpressive. I mean 41% of people having danced to an Elvis record? The figure must be higher than that. Sounds like nonsense to me! Cls14 (talk) 09:46, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Weasel words?
One of the sections says "Elvis Lives?"

Then it carries on with "Many fans", I mean who are the many fans? What number constitutes as "Many"

So yep. —Preceding unsigned comment added by NZAlex (talk • contribs) 13:07, 16 August 2008 (UTC)


 * There is a lot of really questionable verbiage in this article. It's definitely not written like a good encyclopedia article. 168.12.253.66 (talk) 20:48, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

Singles table
This is 1) much too big in relation to the article and 2) seems fairly incoherently placed in the article. I expect the information is already duplicated somewhere else (maybe in its own article) - is that the case? Brilliantine (talk) 03:21, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Agreed.

Possible candidate for a merge?
This is a pretty good article, but: in what sense does it cover a different topic from Cultural impact of Elvis Presley? (The first line of this article even begins 'The Elvis Presley phenomenon refers to the important cultural and social impact of Elvis Presley...'). The only real difference seems to be that Cultural impact of Elvis Presley is about the impact of Elvis during his life, and this one is about his lasting significance after his death. Perhaps the articles should be either merged, or renamed to reflect that. Robofish (talk) 03:19, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
