Proposed merge
I propose that Boys Don't Cry (The Cure album) be merged into this, as it is almost the same album and can easily be incorporated into this article. FamblyCat94 (talk) 04:24, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment - I don't see any advantage of merging, the articles work separately or merged. They probably are better separate as they have their own reviews and track listing. Jonpatterns (talk) 10:13, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Closing, given the argument against and no support. Klbrain (talk) 22:11, 5 February 2018 (UTC)

Wikipedia being used to promote specific websites
It really bothers me that websites like Pitchfork and Allmusic have their reviews linked, and cited, so prominently on the Wikipedia entry for almost every important rock album. They are (somewhat subtly) high-jacking Wikipedia for their own promotion. What would be much more valuable would be contemporary reviews of these albums, written at the time of their release. Alas, who has the time to do that? Instead, we often get the Allmusic and/or Pitchfork appraisal from the 21st century, often written by people too young to understand how the album was received in its time. This is a weakness of the crowd-source model, and can be rectified only by people taking the time to find and link contemporary reviews in these articles. Sometimes, the most important contemporary review is not even available online, but could be scanned and posted. Please help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.35.240.182 (talk) 19:40, 18 April 2017 (UTC)
