Talk:Loose Fur

Untitled
I've got more research that I'm currently doing to add more information to the page, which (when finished) will be significantly longer than the version that's up now. &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by MWB1138 (talk • contribs).
 * The length doesn't matter; the band doesn't meet the requirements in WP:MUSIC. I've also taken down the  tag, as you've already created your response. Rory 0 96 17:29, 8 February 2006 (UTC)


 * I believe it does meet the requirements of WP:MUSIC so I took down the speedy tag: we should give MWB the chance to make the article better at the very least. Check out  for proof of notability.  This band also meets several other requirements.  Mangojuice 17:34, 8 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks Mangojuice for the welcome and the help. This is the first article I've created, so I've got a lot to learn, but I think this will be a decent article when I'm done.  Should information about the individual albums (such as track-listings) be included in this article, or should it go somewhere else? MWB1138 17:46, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

First a note: I'm not really a big music-editor, so I'm not as familiar with the conventions as others may be. I'm glad to see you're interested in the conventions, though, so let me direct you to WikiProject Music, where there is a lot more written on the subject. From what I gleaned on skimming it, albums are worth their own page, and song lists can be there, but for a group with only one or two albums, you don't HAVE to create a separate page for the albums, it's probably reasonable to have albums and song lists as a section on the band's page. Individual songs, however, are generally not notable unless they're particularly special, so shouldn't get their own article. In this case, I think you can probably put that info in this article, at least for now, and separate them out if the article gets too big and needs separating. Welcome again!

This article meets all criteria and I have passed it. Vikrant Phadkay 15:45, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Wilco and Loose Fur bandmembers and discographies
Since both Wilco and  Loose Fur have categories in them which cause them to be included set of articles that are tagged by bot with ChicagoWikiProject, it might make sense for the band members and related discographies to have similar categories. I was looking at Jeff Tweedy and noticed that he has Category:People from Belleville, Illinois and Category:Illinois musicians in his article. If he had Category:People from Chicago or Category:Chicago musicians in his article then he would be tagged with ChicagoWikiProject and thus they would fall under WP:CHICAGO. As WP:CHICAGO director, I would like to monitor these musicians, but I generally leave category decision to the editors of the pages. Please make whatever category decisions you feel would be correct with this in mind for all band members, the bands and all discographies.

I am placing this message several places. I am asking all respondents to respond at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Alternative_music.
