Manager?
The Times obituary of Scott Piering claims that Piering set up the press and promotion department at Rough Trade, and was the manager of the Smiths during the period covering their first 3 albums [the obit's text is on Piering's talk page]. He is also referred to as their former manager in the article Panic (The Smiths song). I find it a little odd that there's no mention of Piering anywhere else in Smiths articles (no incoming links at least); however, as I am certainly inclined to trust The Times as a reliable source I have repeated the claim in the article about him. If you need to make a change to the Piering article, I have that watchlisted. If you need to reply to me here please ping me. --kingboyk (talk) 07:07, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

Louder than bombs
Are we not acknowledging this great album? 47.14.163.159 (talk) 02:41, 5 March 2023 (UTC)


 * In fact it's a compilation album, so in that case you'd need to write down the other ones. And yes, it's great. J. G. is a blonde freak (talk) 18:19, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

Craig Gannon (again)
In the Members section, someone has moved him from the main members section to others. It's true that he's not usually considered one of the main four - and as the editor says, didn't play on any of their studio albums - and the main photo doesn't include him. But we now have the inconsistency of him being included in the info box as a principal member, while being treated as not principal elsewhere in the article. Can we get consensus on this?
