AC/DC discography
Self nomination another discography FLC. Comments are appreciated. No-Bullet (Talk • Contribs) 19:38, 24 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment Would it be possible to make the columns sortable? -- Scorpion0422 19:43, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I didn't make sortable columns because none of the other featured discographies have them =) No-Bullet (Talk • Contribs) 19:54, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
 * So? I tried to find what their highest charting song was, but it was difficult because I had to search through the table. Sortability would make it easier. -- Scorpion0422 00:07, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
 * As far as I know, not a single FL discog does this. So, to be fair to the nominator, I think this would be a topic better discussed at WP:DISCOG, since it would be kind of a discography-wide proposal/change/discussion type thing. Drewcifer (talk) 00:13, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

Support Looking good! Drewcifer (talk) 04:54, 30 April 2008 (UTC)


 * No chart positions for New Zealand, Canada, Japan, or any other country?
 * So?
 * So is that right? Seems odd for a big group like ACDC, especially in NZ, their neighbouring country. -- ṃ• α• Ł• ṭ• ʰ• Ə• Щ•   @  01:40, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * OK, I added charts for Austria, Norway, New Zealand, Sweden and Switzerland. No-Bullet (Talk • Contribs) 22:14, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * That looks better. Can charts for these territories be found for the singles, too? -- ṃ• α• Ł• ṭ• ʰ• Ə• Щ<big style="color:#090">•   @  05:10, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
 * One other thing, is that the infobox header seems to be formatted wrong with AC/DC wikilinked. It's all squashed together. In an edit preview without the link, it looks fine. Not sure what the problem is though, sorry. -- <small style="background:#fff;border:#ff8c00 1px solid;color:#000;padding:0px 3px 1px 4px;white-space:nowrap">ṃ<big style="color:#090">• α<big style="color:#090">• Ł<big style="color:#090">• ṭ<big style="color:#090">• ʰ<big style="color:#090">• Ə<big style="color:#090">• Щ<big style="color:#090">•   @  05:10, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
 * That's weird, I see the infobox just fine. I'll add the charts to the singles table later this morning. No-Bullet (Talk • Contribs) 03:40, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Done, I completed the singles charts. No-Bullet (Talk • Contribs) 16:14, 30 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment Finally, a discography FLC for a band I actually like. Since AC/DC is an Australian band, would you be able to include the album certifications in Australia? -- Scorpion0422 22:45, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I can't really find sources for that, the ARIA website only lists gold and platinum certifications from 1997 onwards, here. The Australian FL discographies (Tenacious D discography, Powderfinger discography and Silverchair discography) are all charted because they're modern bands. Stiff Upper Lip was certified platinum in 2001, though. Should I add it to the table? No-Bullet (Talk • Contribs) 03:15, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, you should list the ones you can. -- Scorpion0422 13:31, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Strong oppose - not nearly ready yet.
 * Expand the lead. Given the history of the band, the lead should be around two big paragraphs. (one for the Scott era, the other for Johnson) Pay importance to their landmark albums (HTH, BIB)
 * I think the studio albums can be split to (International) Studio albums and Aussie-only studio albums. The Aus. in the brackets don't make it clear that they were only released in Australia. But a discussion before you change it would be better.
 * US and UK should be as close to the beginning as possible because they are the most important territories for any band, in terms of tours, popularity, promotion, marketing sales etc... Johnson was English, wasn't he?
 * Rockdetector is not a reliable site. What are you using it for? Where is the Aussie chart info on the site anyway?
 * Atlantic Records --> only Atlantic (same for all labels).
 * Don't link anything more than once n the discography section, i.e, after the lead. So don't link a record label in every section.
 * Why are boxsets not in a table? Just as you don't list the individual songs within a album, I don't think you should list what's inside the boxset (the various albums).
 * Renames videography to videos; where is the detailed release dates, record labels, format of releae etc?
 * Where are the indivdual music videos?
 * Even for the singles, move the UK and US charts next to the Aussie one.
 * You have to cite individual certifications (on the BPI website) while referencing the British certifications; see Nirvana discography or The Prodigy discography. indopug (talk) 14:43, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm busy with my studies ATM, but I'll try to fix everything before tomorrow. No-Bullet (Talk • Contribs) 15:24, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
