Discographies Chronology
Hi. I'm triyng to improve discographies by jazz musicians, but I don't know what's the standard chronology in jazz. My first choice was order of release, but I've noticed that most of the jazz discographies used order of recording for the chronology. What do you think? Thanks.--Cayelr (talk) 08:41, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

 * Hi -- just a quick note to say that I changed your second level heading to just a bold heading in that review -- the FA candidates page doesn't work very well with second level headings inside the reviews, and it was causing the table of contents to get misformatted.

Art Farmer discography
Thanks for your expansion of pages for the Art Farmer discography. Your last edit there suggested that you are going to create a page for the Columbia album The Time and the Place; you also deleted the entry for the Mosaic album of the same name. My understanding is that these are separate albums – see Mosaic's account. Why they chose the same title for recordings which had been confused in the past is a mystery, but... If you agree with my interpretation, could you restore the Mosaic album/collection to the discog and maybe give your planned page a different title? EddieHugh (talk) 10:24, 27 July 2014 (UTC)

AllMusic template
Hi, good work on tireless work on adding jazz albums to the project. I would like to introduce to something that you might find helpful and easy to use. When you add references to AllMusic, there is actually nice template (Allmusic) just for that use that will perfectly format the citation in the references section. Instead of typing this,, for example, try this:. It's great because it keeps things clean and consistent.

Hi DISEman, you recently added an entry in the [John Williams Discography] article that doesn't make a concensus among the experts I've consulted so far. Are you really sure that it's the good John Williams that you credited on the "Introducing Jimmy Cleveland and His All Stars " 1955 album?

Stan Kenton Albums
Greetings,

I want to point out that the Kenton albums, "Rendezvous with Kenton" and "Back to Balboa," were recorded at the Rendezvous Ballroom because Kenton wanted to capture the wide open ambience of the room. The album liner notes clearly state that this was Kenton's intention. There was no audience present so these cannot be considered live recordings.

"The Stage Door Swings" is a studio album.

I could have made the necessary changes myself but thought that you'd like to handle the corrections yourself. JaneOlds (talk) 12:02, 18 April 2016 (UTC)

Stan Kenton Album Chronology
My dear DISEman,

There may be a slight discrepancy in your Kenton album chronology.

Here's what I believe to be the correct American release order based on the catalog number of the original Capitol albums.

Stan Kenton - (1) Stan Kenton Encores (H-155)

Stan Kenton - (2) Artistry In Rhythm (T-167)

Stan Kenton - (3) A Presentation of Progressive Jazz (T-172)

Stan Kenton - (5) Innovations In Modern Music Vol. 1 (P-189)

Stan Kenton - (6) Stan Kenton's Milestones (T-190)

I wanted to offer this info for your consideration. JaneOlds (talk) 05:19, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

Fair Use in Australia campaign update

 * I'm writing you this followup message, as you took the time to vote in support of a Wikipedia banner campaign for the introduction of Fair Use in Australia.


 * After much planning and coordination with the WMF, Australian Digital Alliance, and Electronic Frontiers Australia, as of Monday the banner-campaign is active on English Wikipedia to a portion of logged-out readers in Australia (technical details). The banners direct people to this page on Meta: FairCopyrightOz. That page, alongside lots of information, further directs people towards the campaign website faircopyright.org.au where Australians are invited to write to their local MP to express support of Fair Use. If you are interested in supporting this campaign, please, send a letter yourself using the template letter provided at that link.


 * Furthermore, and with the support of the ADA & EFA, we have received fantastic media coverage - with article "Fair Use: Wikipedia targets Australians in bid to change the law" appearing on page 2 of the Sydney Morning Herald and page 10 of the Melbourne Age on Monday's edition. It was for a time the 3rd most read article the Fairfax website, and Fair Use was "trending" on Twitter in Australia. We are running the account @FairCopyrightOz on twitter, and we are tracking other press-mentions on the talkpage on Meta.


 * Today, day 2, we published a detailed post about the campaign on the Wikimedia Blog, ran an "Ask Me Anything" Q&A session on the Australia page in Reddit, and [by happy coincidence of timing] the article History of fair use proposals in Australia appeared on the en.wp mainpage as a Did You Know. [The creation of that "history of..." article was a specific request arising from in the community consultation in which you voted].


 * And, most importantly, in a little more than a day nearly 800 letters to MPs have been sent encouraging them to support the Productivity Commission's recommendation to adopt Fair Use in Australia. I urge you - please add your own message.


 * Sincerely, Wittylama 16:29, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

Reliable release dates and labels for albums
Do you know of a reliable source for release dates for albums and the labels that released them? Often I encounter conflicting data. I thought this kind of data would be easy to get and relatively reliable, but problems exist. I'm surprised at how much AllMusic gets wrong: dates, labels, musicians' names, songwriters. You name it and they'll get it wrong. I could use Discogs, but that information comes from everyone and is therefore not a legitimate source for Wikipedia, and in fact I've seen errors in Discogs. The musician's web site seems like an obviously reliable source, but often the site's discography is incomplete and lists albums with the labels that are currently distributing them, rather than the labels that issued them in the beginning. I know that retail sites can't be used, though I occasionally look at Amazon for verification, but Amazon, too, has incorrect data. Other problems arise: this label bought that label, or this one distributes that one, which is different for imports, and so on. What seems like simple information turns out to be more difficult to locate than it ought to be. I thought there might be some kind of business or legal source or site where this information could be found with something closer to certainty or reliability. Any ideas? Thanks for your help. –Vmavanti (talk) 22:53, 24 May 2017 (UTC)

The jazz articles you create
sometimes show up on the Cleanup listing for Wikiproject Jazz. I don't want to sound too critical, but I wonder why so many of the articles you create are short on references. This strikes me as odd because based on your User Page you seem to have been here a while and you know what you're doing. I don't create many pages because I know there are many other articles that need to be improved first. I try to do what's best for Wikipedia. When I create a page, I try to make sure I've laid a solid framework with enough good references. Otherwise, I feel I've dropped unfinished work into someone else's lap. Does that make sense? There are already too many inchoate articles on Wikipedia. Is there any chance of altering your methods slightly? –Vmavanti (talk) 02:38, 21 June 2017 (UTC) –Vmavanti (talk) 15:40, 27 July 2017 (UTC) –Vmavanti (talk) 02:14, 11 August 2017 (UTC)

Additions to Billy Butler
You added two albums by Johnny Hodges to the Billy Butler article. Where did that information come from?. Discographies have to be sourced, too. One result if they aren't is that all the people who make unsourced drive-by edits will continue to do so. If regular editors aren't going to document their work, then why should some guy sitting at Starbucks with his iPhone? Or with his laptop in front of the TV, tapping in a piece of information that happens to pop into his head. Those little bugs can bring a good article down, and they reflect poorly on the rest of Wikipedia. If you've been here for ten years, you should know all this, so if you do, then maybe you can share your method of operation so that I and everyone else can know what the rules of editing at Wikipedia really are. I don't like to see music articles treated as a rule-free zone where people are encouraged to kick up their feet and lay back and avoid everything that applies to more serious subjects on the rest of site. The facts in music articles are important, too, and ought to be documented. Obviously it can be pushed too far, but let's at least start down the road to documenting and improving the hundreds of existing articles that need work and get our own methods in order. –Vmavanti (talk) 17:15, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

Cosmopolite by Benny Carter and album editing
I know you've been around a while, but you can save yourself some time and trouble if you make a few changes in how you edit album pages, assuming you still edit the way you edited Cosmpolite by Benny Carter. Per MOS, don't link instruments, except in certain rare cases. If you are going to provide track by track credits, you need a source. I assume you got these from discogs.com, which cannot be used as a source because it relies on user-generated content. Save yourself the trouble, regardless, because track by track credits are messy and unnecessary. Name and instrument is enough, though if you want to go into detail you can do that in the body of the article. Per MOS, one person per line, "double bass" instead of "bass" for acoustic bass, and "bass guitar" for electric bass. You used small text to enter catalog numbers. If you want to use small text, you can use the Track-Note-Length template that I used. When you put the composer in the Note field, it appears in small text. Generally I'm against small text because computer text is small enough already. In this case, the Title-Note-Length template looks nice, and it's easier and faster to type. Don't enter catalog numbers. If you want to go into detail about releases you can do that in the body text. If every album page used catalog numbers, it would be a different story. But for the sake of consistency and simplicity, leave off the catalog numbers. WP isn't a record collector's catalog. It's unnecessary detail that most readers don't want or need. Last, I'm not a big fan of that AllMusic template that some people use, the one with the id number, because it usually lacks important information such as the access date and author. I find the easiest way to do citations is to copy and past the URL into the pop up box in the Templates drop down menu and let the fields fill in automatically. Many IP users seem unaware of this method. It's easiest, fastest, and most thorough. One other point: There are differences in the track listing in what you entered and what AllMusic has. Where did you get your track listing? Which album does it refer to? Would it better to list the tracks from an album that people are more likely to see? Thank you for reading.

Articles about jazz albums
I've been passing this around. I hope it helps. Some notes on articles about albums.

Infobox:
 * Omit "in" before the place the album was recorded
 * "Recorded" is for a date (April 1, 2000)
 * "Studio" is for the name of studio, with a city next to it (Abbey Road Studios, London)
 * "Venue" is for the name of a venue, with a city next to it (O2 Arena, London)
 * Omit "Records" or "Music" and pipe the label. (Decca American release is preferred.
 * Every album has either a studio where it was recorded or a live venue. After filling in one, delete the other rather than leave it blank.
 * If you aren't using the Alt field, delete it
 * Omit catalog numbers
 * Omit space before and after slash mark.
 * You can line up the equals signs, but it's not a rule. I think infoboxes are easier to read when they are lined up.
 * Avoid the use of ALL CAPS in nearly all instances. On the internet ALL CAPS means SHOUTING.

Lede:
 * Don't count albums. Don't list the album count of the musician. Don't write "the fourth album by" even if you are certain.
 * Albums are released by labels, not "through" labels or "via" labels or "on" labels. For the most part, musicians don't release albums. Labels do. Musicians record albums. Labels release albums.
 * It's not "on the Columbia label" or "through the Columbia label". "Columbia" is sufficient.

Sources:
 * Don't use Discogs.com or Amazon.com as sources. Click on my name for more information about this subject or read the relevant Wikipedia documentation.

Personnel:
 * "Personnel" in the header, not "credits"
 * Any information you use has to be sourced. This goes for everything you add to Wikipedia. Everything. Don't add unsourced information.
 * Don't mimic the formats in the credits sections of AllMusic and Discogs.com
 * Don't enter track specific information for musicians, like "track 7" or "1,2,3" like Discogs.com. You can't use Discogs.com as a source.
 * Don't enter "photographer" "composer" "arranger" like AllMusic. The musicians are the main thing. If you want to enter production information, do it in a separate section.
 * All you need to enter is name first, en dash, instruments lowercased, not bracketed, commas between instruments, no periods, no parentheses with track numbers
 * Sort instruments by: leader first, brass, woodwind, keyboards, strings, bass, drums, percussion, vocals, backing vocals; within each (more than one trumpeter, for example) sort by last name
 * En dash is formed with the option key and the hyphen key (on most keyboards, option to the left of space bar, hyphen to the left of plus sign)
 * Em dash is formed with the option key to the right of the space bar, while holding shift (directly above it) and they hyphen key. A three-key press.
 * Make sure you know when to use the hyphen and when to use the en dash or em dash.
 * On Wikipedia, the en dash gets used a lot, so you might as well learn it.

One more thing: Vmavanti (talk) 04:14, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Always keep the reader in mind. Always keep your audience in mind. The reader doesn't know what you know. The reader is different from you. Don't write to please yourself. Write for the common reader. Readers don't always like what you like. Readers don't always think the way you think.

Blues albums
Good work on a lot of older blues albums and artist discographies. One thing I noticed is that several compilation albums by artists are being added to the discographies of the sidemen. This can be misleading, since the sidemen might only play on a couple of songs; these compilations may span 10 or more years and include several different sidemen on the same instrument. Unless it is certain that one plays on all or most of the album's songs, maybe identify specific songs or add something like "Other pianists/guitarists/bassists/etc. also play on some songs". Thanks. —Ojorojo (talk) 14:55, 19 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I've made some corrections to Howlin' Wolf album articles. Template:Infobox album provides guidance on the proper use of the template. Some points:
 * compilation should be used for albums that are collections of previously released singles or songs which weren't specifically recorded to be released together on an album (usually a "studio album").
 * The infobox should only include info about the original album; reissue date(s), running times, labels, etc., should be added to the main article body instead. Also, catalogue numbers are unnecessary.
 * Abbreviations for states should not be used ("Tennessee", rather than "TN"). These are not well understood outside of the U.S. (see MOS:ABBREV).
 * and should not be used in infoboxes (causes WP:ACCESS problems).
 * WP:ALBUMSTYLE also gives advice on article layout, etc. Although it is optional, Track listing is a clean way to present the songs, writers, durations, etc. Live in Cook County Jail is an example of a recent good article. If an album article only consists of a track listing and one review, consider whether an article is really needed: "Notability aside, a standalone article is only appropriate when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged into the artist's article or discography." (see WP:NALBUMS).
 * —Ojorojo (talk) 16:31, 20 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi – I've noticed many album articles you've created contain links to self-published sources. Many appear as the second or third source for a sentence – it is better to use one reliable source, rather than add problematic ones. Biographies and music encyclopedias may be used to provide more background and analyses of the albums (try Google book searches). Again, a track listing and a quote from AllMusic is not really sufficient for a WP article (a reader could simply go to AllMusic for the same info). Choose a few albums you can really write about in some detail. —Ojorojo (talk) 16:09, 12 November 2019 (UTC)

No selected
Please avoid adding "selected" before discography in those sections.

Notes on The Love Connection
Some requests regarding your edit of The Love Connection by Freddie Hubbard. I can go into detail or justify these further if you like.


 * Please consider using the pop-up template for citations. It's easiest, fastest, and provides more information. This goes for AllMusic too. I see this kind of thing all over: "Allmusic|class=album|id=mw0000819769" in brackets. Please use the pop-up menu style. If you don't know how, ask me. Usually it's merely adding the URL, clicking the button, and the fields fill in automatically.
 * Please use the horizontal format for citations. What we don't want is mixed styles, and most people use the horizontal. In additiona, I see the same citation from The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide all over the jazz articles. Some improvements you might consider (other than horizontal): add periods to "U.S." (it's U.S. or US, not USA) and delete blank fields. This too can be done with the pop up menu, using cite book; you add the ISBN and click the button.
 * Try to avoid using semicolons as bold type. Use the apostrophes instead. The semicolons skew the text for people who use colored syntax.
 * Try to avoid having two linked items next to each other, as in jazz musician Freddie Hubbard. This makes it difficult to know which word to click.
 * Generally citations should be the last name of the author. If someone else has used the same author in the article, you can use something like "Larkin1" or a page number or some other way of distinguishing that particular citation. In longer articles, it can be v. important to have easily recognizable, distinct citations.
 * You don't need to link anything in citations. Readers rarely click in footnotes. Brackets in citations are a waste of time and another excuse to fill the screen with blue links.
 * The infobox was right except the type was listed Studio Album, bracketed and in caps. Use small letters, no brackets: studio
 * Try to avoid separating song lists into Side A and Side B. I suspect there are many people today who have never owned vinyl, so the convention of Side A and Side B is probably pointless for them. There are many ways of acquiring music besides vinyl.
 * Avoid track information in Personnel sections. This usually comes from Discogs.com, which technically isn't a source that can be cited. To me the information is extraneous. It's enough to know who is on the album. The rest is a waste of time that could be better spent.
 * If there is a bassist, try to use either "double bass" or "bass guitar" rather than simply "bass", which sometimes gets tagged as too vague.

Thank you for reading and for your many contributions.-Vmavanti (talk) 23:52, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

Cadet
What that article really needs is sourced material, not more albums. We usually omit catalog numbers. The article needs content, not more data. Articles that are merely lists sometimes get deleted because they don't provide any content. Wikipedia isn't a record collector's catalog. It's written for everyone. Vmavanti (talk) 00:47, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

The Printmakers
I saw from the edit history that you created the article for The Printmakers. There are some problems. Before you create another article, please read the Wikipedia documentation, starting with notability. Try to establish notability before creating an article. This saves everyone a lot of wasted time, effort, and aggravation. One sentence doesn't constitute an "article". That should be common sense. One or two sources usually isn't enough, something everyone should have learned in school. See the documentation for the latest version of infoboxes. There needs to be consistency from article to article. Omit catalog numbers. These are of special interest to a tiny group of collectors but mean nothing to the common reader and are not in the public interest. References and external links are not interchangeable and therefore they or the sections that contain them should not be combined or confused. Don't put entire sentences in italics simply because it looks pretty on the screen. It doesn't. Don't link instruments unless it's something out of the ordinary. Linking them assumes that every person who reads an article on an album will automatically want to read about, say, the history of the trumpet. Not true. The preferred order for personnel comes from classical music, where instruments are listed from high notes to low. In jazz, this usually means: leader first (it's their album), then brass (trumpet, trombone), woodwinds (soprano sax on down), piano, keyboards, guitar, bass guitar or double bass, drums, percussion, vocals.

50th Birthday Celebration album covers
Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I will be exporting to Commons the twelve 50th Birthday Celebration album covers for John Zorn you uploaded. As their designs consist only of simple geometric shapes and text, they are not subject to copyright – see PD-logo. Volumes 5 to 12 all use file names of the form "File:50th Birthday Celebration Volume n.jpg", which matches the titles of the respective album articles. But volumes 1 to 4 use different file naming structures, and I will be renaming them to match those of volumes 5 to 12. Once the twelve images are exported to Commons, I will be uploading higher resolution images from AMG, and their corresponding fair-use files in Wikipedia will be deleted. So you may see deletion notices on your talk page. —Bruce1eetalk 11:45, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi DISEman, Do you know if this photograph portrays Don Moye? Vysotsky (talk) 13:53, 26 September 2022 (UTC)


 * I seriously doubt it DISEman (talk) 09:18, 27 September 2022 (UTC)
 * I can imagine that. At the same time, Art Ensemble of Chicago performed at this festival on Sunday 28 June 1970, and Don Moye was one of the few persons (with Dr John) to dress extravagantly. Vysotsky (talk) 20:22, 27 September 2022 (UTC)

ECM
Thank you for all the work you've done over the years! I'm trying to go through and standardize the ECM releases, and it seems you've done half of everything productive on the lot. I tried to find the neutral common ground that preserved what was there and minimized words, and I ended up with a pretty slight modification of your template—please let me know if there's anything you think I should changed!

 * Wow… that work was so long ago I'm just really glad that someone else has invested time in reviewing it.
 * Thanks so very much DISEman (talk) 23:30, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
