Talk:Escala (group)

New article
This is the new page about the britains got talent finalists, Escala —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tompage1994 (talk • contribs) 14:16, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Name typography
Note that their website stylises the name "eScala" but ITV has consistently used "Escala" so naturally most coverage of them uses "Escala". I've changed the instances of their name which aren't directly related to their newfound fame accordingly but not moved the article, as per convention regarding common names. If they release a successful record as "eScala" a full move may be appropriate. BigBlueFish (talk) 23:01, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Good spot! And as you say if and when they release anything under eScala the name can always be moved then. ♦Tangerines♦ · Talk 23:04, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Damn, I just moved it and added the lowercase template. As a novice user, I kinda jumped the gun and didn't check the talk page. Sorry, should it be reverted? DarkWeaver (talk) 07:37, 2 June 2008 (UTC)


 * This article is now located at EScala (group). Srely it needs either reverting back to Escala (group) or moving as stated above to eScala (group). ♦Tangerines♦ · Talk 16:48, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

X Factor party
There seems to be some confusion over which member of the group played at the party. However, the content as it stands is fully sourced from a Daily Mail article which states, "Similarly, they deny a rumour that they’d played last year’s X Factor wrap party, and were thus already ‘known’ to Cowell; in fact, says Izzy, she’d merely played as part of a string section backing Michael Bublé when he appeared as a guest on the show." If it was not her who played then a source needs to be found and added that to confirm that it was Chantal Leverton, but until such time, the above is sourced content, and it should remain as such unless it is proven otherwise. ♦Tangerines♦ · Talk 19:43, 5 June 2008 (UTC)


 * It was Chantal who Played Strings for Michael Bublé on xfactor  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jenzzyuk (talk • contribs) 09:57, 6 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Firstly, please do not remove other users comments from talk pages as you did by removing my message above. In reply to your message, as I said above is there a source that confirms she played? ♦Tangerines♦ · Talk 16:00, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

How do I make it so that the title of the page is capitalized?
It shows up as "escala", but it should be "Escala." How do I change this? S. Dean Jameson (talk) 14:47, 16 June 2008 (UTC)


 * It should be eScala according to their website and not Escala, and nor escala. Do you have a source that states they changed from Scala to eScala and then to Escala? ♦Tangerines♦ · Talk 15:11, 16 June 2008 (UTC)


 * To carry on from the above, I emailedthe groups management company, Young Guns UK (enquiries@younggunsuk.com) about the naming of the group. This was the reply from the groups assistant manager -


 * "The name is Escala, the small e and the big E are both used but Escala is the correct spelling for normal text. The logo on the website will be changing in the next few weeks."


 * The bit about the logo changing in the next few weeks is about the sole use of eScala on their website which will be changing to Escala apparently. I will therefore revert my own revert and restore it to the version as Dean Jameson above. ♦Tangerines♦ · Talk 12:57, 17 June 2008 (UTC)


 * My main question was about how to change the actual title to "Escala" instead of the current "escala." I can't figure out how to do it.S. Dean Jameson (talk) 17:30, 17 June 2008 (UTC)


 * All sorted. It just needed the "lowercase" tag removing. ♦Tangerines♦ · Talk 17:35, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

– This group seems clearly primary over a one-sentence article about a town with fewer than 400 people. This page gets more than 100 times the views and has much more valuable content. &#32;-- Fyrael (talk) 17:06, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Escala (group) → Escala
 * Escala → Escala, Hautes-Pyrénées
 * Strong support 2nd, unsure about 1st given the taxon and surname and other places a DAB might make more sense.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 18:11, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Support 2nd, Oppose 1st. Maybe having a disambiguation page at the basename might be a wise next step! Paintspot Infez (talk) 19:29, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Just created a disambiguation page ("Escala (disambiguation)"), which could be moved to the basename. Paintspot Infez (talk) 19:37, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Great job on the DAB, which is useful regardless of outcome. It's still looking to me like the group would be primary based on views though, getting more than twice as much as all other entries combined, with the Cadillac as the only topic on the same order as the group and that having natural disambiguation: .&#32;-- Fyrael (talk) 20:30, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Oppose 1st 2008 talent show entrant gone without trace, Support 2nd, and would think that escala is best a dab page given L'Escala. In ictu oculi (talk) 20:32, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Hm, doesn't seem "gone without trace" to the hundreds of viewers it gets each day, which is more than 10 times what L'Escala gets. The numbers I linked are for 2020, not 2009 or something. I'm fine if we end up with no primary topic based on long-term significance, but I don't think it's a clear call.&#32;-- Fyrael (talk) 22:30, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Support both per nom.--Ortizesp (talk) 22:16, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Note that there is also a place in Seatle, Washington, see Commons:Category:Escala, Seatle that I disambiguated today and it has an article on the Dutch Wikipedia, maybe that could be created here at Escala (Seatle).  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 21:34, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
 * It's surprising that a residential building in the U.S. has a page on the Dutch wiki. Also I moved that Category to the correct spelling of Seattle but I'm not at all sure that it worked correctly. I don't use Commons much at all.&#32;-- Fyrael (talk) 06:44, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I've added it to the DAB here since there is an internal link with the correct spelling, maybe the article could be imported here with the translate tool.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 13:34, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
