Talk:Matador Records

Untitled
Did Void really record for Matador? They are on the list here, but they were primarily a Dischord band, and Matador never released any stuff by hardcore punk bands to my knowledge. Chris77xyz 20:10, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Matador is still listed on the RIAA's site as of 01/10/06.

Matador is also Lloyd "Matador" Daleys reggae recording label.

Merge with list of artists

 * Agree seems a sensible suggestion Ollie 02:12, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Agree RayGates 17:48, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

Merged, as no opposition in three weeks of listing. Ollie 18:29, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

No more mention of Pavement?
The question "No more mention of Pavement?" appeared in the article. It doesnt belong there, so i've put it here instead. I don't really know what it's refering to, so i can't help, but perhaps someone else can!

== ==  every band listed should have an article == ==

Fair use rationale for Image:Matador.gif
Image:Matador.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Roster
I suggest changing this section name to Acts, and the "Current (active) Bands" to simply "Current", and the "Alumni (Former Bands)" to simply "Former". Even if people disagree to those overall changes, I'd still suggest removing (active) from "Current (active) Bands" as it is redundant, and changing "Alumni (Former Bands)" to Former Bands as a record label doesn't have Alumni per the definition given in Alumnus.IrishStephen (talk) 23:55, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Discography
Since many other pages regarding record labels (even indie ones) have a close-to-complete discography, I believe it should be a priority on this page. Any help converting the "notable artists" section to "discography" in table format would be kindly appreciated. Finalius ( gibberings ) 18:48, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
 * On second thought, I would like to know why there is a link to the discography, but it is not listed here. Is this relevant? Finalius  ( gibberings ) 18:50, 22 April 2013 (UTC)

Status
Matador is distributed by ADA in the United States. ADA is owned by Warner. Does that affect its status as being independent? AmericanLeMans (talk) 22:35, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
