How to do it?
There is no MoS for anime soundtracks so we must rely on what worked.

actually Music of the Final Fantasy VII series is the best way to go IMO, considering the article passed GA assessment and looks pretty organized.Bread Ninja (talk)


 * You don't have the ammunitions for it. You don't have neither the additional informations nor the Reliable Source to assert them. --KrebMarkt 16:39, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

at the moment no, I'm just organizing the article. after the rough draft is finalized i look for additional sources and refs for each. even though it's not going to happen at the moment, doesnt mean it's not going to happen at all. i'll look for more sources after i format every track list and add it here, right now NGE:S2 works is what takes most of my time, if someone could help me format them, that would be a great time saver.Bread Ninja (talk) 17:54, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Question 1: How do you want to organize the article?
First by series, second by Compilations and third by Other. though one question, why is the title A Cruel Angel's Thesis Even though the single is called Neon Genesis Evangelion: Fly me to the Moon. Shouldn't there be more mention of Fly me to the Moon in that article?


 * Don't ask me i'm not the one who wrote this article :p --KrebMarkt 16:39, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

oh ok then, I'll see what i can do on that article. but other than that i think the article is pretty organized.Bread Ninja (talk) 18:05, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I like the format that the list is in right now; coupla questions. Are the album covers going to be included or not?  Do you want to have the track listings in a format that can be hidden/shown, as in the FFVII article's lists? Willbyr (talk | contribs) 20:13, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Manual of Style won't allow multiple singles and albums covers inside a list of soundtrack or discography. That why some fans prefer one article per single & album so they can have plenty CD covers disregarding notability issue.
 * Hidden/Shown was frowned upon by FL reviewers during Popotan FL review due to accessibility issue. Then again Music of Final Fantasy XYZ can get GA without raising that issue.
 * All CDs are sourced in the above section with reference to Oricon database those information include basic release information, list of tracks, composer, arranger, lyricist (if applicable) of each tracks and charts information: best ranking, number of week in the charts and periods it charted. What is missing is tracks lengths and sells raw numbers. --KrebMarkt 20:31, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

List of Popotan soundtracks does not show refs on there tracklist except on one. not so sure if they had them there before, but if the track lists contains refs, i don't think that would be against WP:ACCESS because a reader can still access the information even though they cant get it directly from the article.Bread Ninja (talk) 16:08, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
 * The refs used in the prose chunk before each track list also assert the track list. --KrebMarkt 16:22, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

I'm a bit concern about adding infoboxes in the article. Music of the Final Fantasy VII series was able to get GA without them, so should be have Infoboxes for each section or not?

I was thinking if we were to add infoboxes, we would merge some together, like some relating to the same series. and if we weren't going to add infoboxes, then we just move the information on to the opening paragraph. any thoughts on how to approach this?Bread Ninja (talk) 16:50, 7 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Against infobox, Popotan FL can do without. All information in prose. --KrebMarkt 17:22, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

http://www.toycup.com/ancdsonegeev1.html i found this for S2 works. think it's a reliable source?Bread Ninja (talk) 21:25, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

What to merge?
To have a separate album or single article: WP:NALBUMS

WP:NALBUMS focus more on singles and Albums. But doesn't mention much of compilation, it is much difficult for this an d probably needs some mention in the guide if asked for. Bread Ninja (talk) 16:05, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
