Daniil Trifonov discography

 * Nominator(s): Zingarese talk  ·  contribs  20:20, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

This is the discography of a Grammy Award-winning young classical pianist, Daniil Trifonov. I believe that it meets the featured list criteria and is very thorough and informative. Compared to other FLs of the discographies of other classical artists, including Lang Lang discography, Vladimir Horowitz discography, Oregon Symphony discography, and Kronos Quartet discography, this article has a more engaging lede and is more detailed in terms of the actual lists. This is my second nomination of this list; the first was stalled after an editor expressed concern that #3b of the criteria was violated because the main article was small. It is now more than four times as large as it was when I nominated this list for the first time, with a large bulk of further expansion pending! As such, I hope any concerns of 3b are now alleviated, at the very least... Thank you very much for your consideration in advance, Zingarese talk  ·  contribs  20:20, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

All I got so far. Still needs lots of work. BeatlesLedTV (talk) 21:13, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Comments from BeatlesLedTV
 * First off, I don't think using Vladimir Horowitz discography is a good template for this because honestly that list is very out of date in terms of discographies (promoted in 2010). It doesn't even have the discography infobox listing all the albums, nor does this one. You honestly need to have that here in this one.
 * I originally did, but then another editor removed it and rewrote the lede, which I actually like more than having an infobox and the previous lede.
 * Most FL discographies start off with something like "So and so has released __ studio albums, __ compilation albums, etc." Why isn't that here as well?
 * See above.
 * The tables need scope rows on the albums/singles (you have cols but not rows)
 * Argh, will fix asap.
 * Don't think Discogs is seen as a reliable source (It isn't (see WP:NOTRSMUSIC)
 * I’ll remove
 * Trifonov Live should be in its own col like the rest
 * Will fix
 * Why aren't the album titles anywhere in the first paragraph?
 * Will add them
 * General question: Why are his albums referred to as 'CDs' when many were released as digital downloads as well? Why not just 'albums'?
 * I’ll look into that I ✅ all mentions of "CDs" to albums
 * THank you for your comments; please let me know if you catch anything else. Zingarese talk  ·  contribs  21:45, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
 * More comments:
 * Put scope rows on the albums not the years (Lots of discographies don't even have a year col because it already says the year in the details)
 * Separate titles on video releases
 * Move refs to their own col at the end
 * I'm not sure I understand why that is necessary...most discographies have the refs with the album title
 * "The Magics Of Music / The Castelfranco Veneto Recital" – don't need to capitalize 'of'
 * Why is details in video releases table sortable when every other details section isn't? (hint: unsort it)
 * Continuing from last statement, "The Magics Of Music" and "The Castelfranco Veneto Recital" should be italicized (not in quotes) (see MOS:ITALICTITLE)
 * Gotta keep date formats consistent
 * Remove the external link to Discogs (as discussed earlier)
 * Why? It's inappropriate to use it as a source for information, but I think it's fair to use it as an external link.
 * Still has a ways to go. BeatlesLedTV (talk) 17:56, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

 * Support – sorry completely forgot about this one. Looks much better now after others' inputs. Happy to support. – BeatlesLedTV (talk) 17:05, 6 May 2019 (UTC)

 * Quick question - how do you differentiate between a studio album and a live album? The second "studio" album says it was recorded at "Concert Hall of the Mariinsky Theatre in Saint Petersburg", which clearly isn't a recording studio, and the fact that it was recorded in a concert hall implies that it is in fact a recording of a live concert.  Or was it recorded at the concert hall but without an audience and therefore isn't really "live"?  Could you clarify.....? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:14, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
 * More often that not, concertos for piano and orchestra cannot fit in a normal recording studio. Huge solo instrument, conductor’s podium, 90-100 players in the orchestra... Piano concerto studio recordings are thus usually taken in a concert hall. Acoustically it’s still great, maybe even better, and most major concert halls already have a professional microphone system (which they use frequently for radio broadcasts). For albums of classical music, it’s quite the “norm” to label live recordings as “Live Recording” or “Recorded live at...” because of how different they can be (and always are) from studio recordings For instance, his two Rachmaninov concerto albums were also recorded in a concert hall-  Verizon Hall in Philly - but watch the trailer, or even see the photo on the back cover of the Variations album - it’s on AllMusic- and you can see that it’s not a live recording. Same case for the Tchaikovsky album. Hope that clears things up! Zingarese  talk  ·  contribs  15:56, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
 * That makes perfect sense, thanks. I'll do a full review later -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:00, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Wanted to follow up vis-à-vis your full review. Regards, Zingarese talk  ·  contribs  03:34, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
 * - humblest apologies, I completely forgot. I am about to log off, but I promise (promise!) I will do it in the next 48 hours -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 16:32, 20 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Comments
 * "His first album for DG, The Carnegie Recital, was of a live recording from a recital" => "His first album for DG, The Carnegie Recital, was a live recording of a recital"
 * "such as those of Verbier and of Lockenhaus" => "such as those of Verbier and Lockenhaus"
 * "as well as Rachmaniana" => "and Rachmaniana"
 * "The first DVD included a documentary which included" - repetition of "included". If the first DVD only has this documentary, I would suggest changing the first "included" to "contained".  If it has other stuff, change the second "included" to "featured"
 * "ranked on Billboard Top Classical Album charts" => "ranked on the Billboard Top Classical Album chart"
 * Each album only has a ref against the release date - can you confirm that these refs also support everything else (the recording date and location and the contents)
 * "Format: CD4" - is that a typo? Never heard of a "CD4" before.........
 * Think that's it from me........ -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:37, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Dear Thank you for your comments; i have made all of the changes that you suggested. I can also confirm that the references support all other details of each album in addition to the release dates. The reason why the references are behind the release date is because it was suggested above (previously, I had put them behind the album titles). Warm regards, Zingarese  talk  ·  contribs  05:04, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
 * You still had that "included.....included" thing at the end of the first paragraph, but I have fixed that for you and am now happy to support -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:33, 26 April 2019 (UTC)

Comment this list, and the associated work on the main Daniil Trifonov article, are excellent. I really appreciate the effort put in to cover the 3b concerns. The Rambling Man (talk) 07:52, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
