Guy Sebastian discography

 * Nominator(s): Usfun8991 07:29, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I believe it fulfills the featured list criteria and is sufficiently comprehensive. Any comments or suggestions that may assist in improving this list would be much appreciated. Thank you. — Usfun8991 07:29, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

Support A comprehensive and well sourced list. Nicely done! Simon (talk) 13:22, 13 November 2014 (UTC)

Support Plenty of information and all is sourced. I think it meets the criteria for a featured list! I do have a question though. In studio albums, what is up with all the numbers next to the record label? BMG (#82876587792). -- Joseph Prasad (talk) 06:12, 14 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your support! The numbers are the catalogue numbers for the albums. I'm not quite sure why they're there. Do you think they are appropriate for a discography article or should I move them into their individual articles? — Usfun8991 (talk) 12:05, 15 December 2014 (UTC)
 * I haven't actually seen them on many articles, like Drake Bell discography, I don't see the catalog numbers for the albums. Also, take an already featured list, Taylor Swift discography. No Catalog numbers there, or on the albums. I don't think they belong at all. -- Joseph Prasad (talk) 23:47, 15 December 2014 (UTC)
 * All done! — Usfun8991 (talk) 08:11, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Ok, full on support now. -- Joseph Prasad (talk) 08:14, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Support All issued I'd raised have been dealt with. Good job! --Prosperosity (talk) 23:17, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Comments – The subject is not one I know anything about, and I cannot usefully comment on how the page matches FL criterion 3. A few comments, which I hope will be useful: That's all from me.  Tim riley  talk    09:05, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Lead
 * "the highest for an Australian Idol contestant" – missing a word, evidently. I think you want "the highest number"
 * Singles
 * To a non-expert in popular music the distinction between "with" and "featuring" in the first column isn't obvious
 * References
 * The Manual of Style (MOS:QUOTE) bids us rationalise punctuation within quotations, on which basis I think you ought to replace the hyphens and spaced em-dashes in your references (e.g. refs 71-80 etc) with spaced en-dashes or unspaced em-dashes.
 * Similarly I think, with regard to MOS:QUOTE, the titles of songs should be capitalised in the refs to conform with how they are capitalised in the main text, so that – for instance – you don't have "Oh, Oh" in the text and "Oh, oh" in the refs, and similarly with "In the Midnight Hour/In The Midnight Hour" and so on.
 * Ref 66: inner quotes should be single.
 * "featuring" means the artist is featuring on (Guy Sebastian)'s song, where as "with" means both artists are credited equally for the song. This is also made evident in the individual articles. Also, what do you mean by inner quotes? — Usfun8991 (talk) 10:54, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
 * "With/featuring": understood – fine. Quotes: "Guy Sebastian – "Kryptonite"" should be "Guy Sebastian – 'Kryptonite'",with doubles at the start and end and singles inside, round Kryptonite.   Tim riley  talk    13:31, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Okay, all fixed now! — Usfun8991 (talk) 23:05, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
