Talk:John Lennon discography

Change to layout
The purpose of a discography page is to provide a quick lookup of the albums released by an artist. I think that the recent edits have made this page unclear and confusing to the casual user who just needs quick access to this kind of information at a glance. I would like to revert this page to the last set of changes done by User:Shirimasen but in order to prevent a potential edit war I would be interested in hearing what anyone thinks about this.
 * You can revert it if you feel strongly about it. I won't get into an edit war over it. --typhoon 04:31, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

John Lennon template
Is there need for a John Lennon template (you know, one that can be placed below articles about John Lennon songs/albums, directing to his biography, albums et cetera, similar to Template:The_Beatles? Or should the beatles template be used instead? (Or is this something for the beatles project?) Pie.er 13:56, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Bootlegs Added
I've added a bootleg section. Please expand it, but limit to significant bootlegs, and if there is an extensive series, just add the name of the series so we don't crowd the article up too much.

LIVE PEACE IN TORONTO 1969
Hi,

LIVE PEACE IN TORONTO 1969 has been awarded gold record in the US under the artist name "Plastic Ono Band" and not "John Lennon" but I can't easily introduce the reference in the article because I haven't found how to copy the complete URL address which begins by "http://www.riaa.com/goldandplatinumdata.php?table=SEARCH_RESULTS".

Thank you to introduce it in the article. Carlo Colussi (both my real name and my usual account when I'm logged in but I wasn't logged in when I made the following edit : (cur) (last) 07:53, 9 October 2008 212.23.162.39 (Talk) (14,780 bytes) (→Live albums) (undo)". Sorry for not mastering references addings :

B-sides?
Am a little surprised that the singles here aren't arranged, as with other artists, in a simple table showing B-sides and highest positions, if any, in various charts. Martinevans123 (talk) 19:14, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Sortable tables
It would be nice if someone with knowledge added those to this. --194.197.235.26 (talk) 21:30, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

Interview disc
There's a John Lennon/Yoko Ono interview disc called "Heart Play", could someone add it to the table? --Yeepsi (Talk to me!) 22:36, 1 August 2011 (UTC)

Cite error
"Cite error: tag is missing the closing" on the line of Live Peace in Toronto 1969

I'll look at it myself when I have the time, but if YOU would like to fix it, please do go ahead. I'm not sure if it is this error that causes everything below there to be listed in the Live albums section, or if that's a different issue.

Orphaned references in John Lennon discography
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of John Lennon discography's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "BPI": From Mick Jagger:  From British Phonographic Industry:  From The Beatles discography:  

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 03:01, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
