Lostprophets discography

 * Nominator(s): Mister sparky (talk) 16:42, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because i believe that it's a good representation of the bands work, the article had some problems before and i feel that they have been addressed. Mister sparky (talk) 16:42, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Support All of my concerns have been addressed, and I'm happy to support. Excellent work! Drewcifer (talk) 22:10, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
 * yay! thank you so much for your help :) Mister sparky (talk) 22:30, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

Comments I see this is the 4th attempt, hopefully this is the one! It looks like the list has indeed been improved with each FLC, but I still see some problems I'd like to see addressed:


 * The multiple-column certifications is something I haven't seen in a while. The common form transitioned to a single-column (a la, for instance, Nine Inch Nails discography), since a column for each ends up being a huge waste of space.  Additionally, there should be a link to List of music recording sales certifications.
 * Done. Mister sparky (talk) 17:11, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * The dates are in American form (Month Day Year), but since the band is Welsh they should be in international form (Day Month Year).
 * Done. Mister sparky (talk) 17:11, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Some general references would be helpful. Again, you could look at the NIN discog for an example.
 * added some. Mister sparky (talk) 17:11, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * There's no need for a line break with the citation for directors; there's plenty of space on the same line. Drewcifer (talk) 00:52, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Done. Mister sparky (talk) 17:11, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * What makes The Rock Hard Times. http://www.trht.net/artist/Lostprophets a reliable source?
 * Allmusic should be wikilinked, at least in the first reference (or if you include them, in a general reference).
 * Done. Mister sparky (talk) 17:11, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * "The band were established in 1997 in the Welsh town of Pontypridd" This fact is repeated twice.
 * Done. Mister sparky (talk) 17:11, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * UK should be spelled out the first time it's mentioned.
 * Done. Mister sparky (talk) 17:11, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * There's some broken references now. Drewcifer (talk) 00:53, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
 * The first column ommits formats, while the second includes them. Use one or the other, not both.  Same thing with release dates: the first table includes it, the second ommits it.
 * Removed EP table. Mister sparky (talk) 17:11, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Why did you loose the table? That's not what I suggested at all.  Am I missing something? Drewcifer (talk) 00:53, 9 August 2009 (UTC)


 * i removed the ep table until i could find reliable enough refs, then i'll re-instate it. and haha oops! fixed the broke refs Mister sparky (talk) 05:29, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Well unfortunately, I don't think it's that easy. If the lostprophets released EPs, they should be included in the discography.  So if they're not there, the list is incomplete, and so it would fail the FL criteria. Drewcifer (talk) 05:35, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
 * re-instated the ep table with the info i could find from a ref recommended on this very page. Mister sparky (talk) 11:32, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Not sure where someone recommended MusicBrainz, but it's definitely not reliable, since it's user-editable. Therefore it can't be used for information-verification, ie, references.  You could get away with using as an external link, but not as a reference.  Definitely need to find something else. Drewcifer (talk) 03:04, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
 * as discussed elsewhere the table has been removed, so not relevant now. Mister sparky (talk) 21:11, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

I also noticed how the MTV music video reference doesn't actually cover all of the music videos, just Rooftops. So obviously this doesn't work where it's placed, since it implies the same source for all of the directors. As it stands only one of the directors is referenced. Drewcifer (talk) 03:26, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Done. Mister sparky (talk) 21:11, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

More comments
 * I'm not sure about the removing of the EP section. If they released it, then it's part of the discography.  Though I understand that desire to take it out as well.  If you can find some reliable sources that confirm their existence, I would recommend putting them back in, but I'll let that slide for the purposes of this FLC.
 * reliable sources cannot be found to prove their actual existance, so they were probably just leaked demo's. hence their removal. Mister sparky (talk) 11:48, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * MVDbase is not considered reliable, so you'll have to replace that one.
 * wasn't sure about that one myself actually, removed now. Mister sparky (talk) 11:48, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Ref #8 and #9 need publisher values.
 * added. Mister sparky (talk) 11:48, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * No need to wikilink CD and digital download after the first time.
 * Done. Mister sparky (talk) 11:48, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * The dates still need to be changed to international format. Maybe you can scam Kiac into fixing them back? =) Drewcifer (talk) 23:09, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Rockband forums is not a reliable source.

 * I agree with Drew that The Hard Rock Times looks dubious. One video source could be replaced with MTV.
 * Done. Mister sparky (talk) 17:52, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * The RIAA reference (#15) is missing a publisher.
 * it has one as far as i can see. please clarify Mister sparky (talk) 17:52, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
 * It has been removed, all good.


 * Add general references to their discography on the official website, Rolling Stone and Allmusic. Then add an External Link to Musicbrainz. This should cover the release dates, etc.
 * Done. Mister sparky (talk) 17:52, 8 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Torrentz reliable as a source? What makes these three releases notable for inclusion? How are they official releases? If they're only available on Torrents sites, were they ever actually publicly released, or just leaked by the band?
 * have removed the ep table until a more reliable ref can be found. Mister sparky (talk) 17:52, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
 * They all seem to just be demos, referred to here that way anyway. In this case - and if they were never officially released, then they don't really fit criteria for inclusion. This is a touchy one though, could just be that they were so small as a band at the time, that there's been no coverage of the releases. I see you've used Musicbrainz, I don't believe that is reliable as it is open source (user-submitted), just like Wikipedia.
 * okay i'm confused now! at the top of the page the advice was they have to be included, you say they dont. which is correct? and why recommend an external link to a site that you think is unreliable? doesnt make sense to me lol. Mister sparky (talk) 23:32, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I know, it's confusing! I'll clarify - Musicbrainz and Discogs are user-submitted, so they are not reliable sources - but they are useful as External Links, because they cover similar information, etc.
 * as discussed elsewhere table has not been removed so not relevant anymore. Mister sparky (talk) 21:11, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

okay confused again! a few days ago drew said that as the band are welsh the dates should be put into the european format (day, month year), but today kiac changed them back to the american format (month, day year). which is correct guys?! you two keep contradicting each other so its making this very difficult to learn which is the correct way to do things.... Mister sparky (talk) 15:23, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Modern Rock Tracks > Alternative Songs (redirects there, same chart different name)
 * already changed. Mister sparky (talk) 21:36, 13 August 2009 (UTC)


 * No mention at all of any singles in the lead? The lead's quite thin, you could expand it a bit and not concentrate so much on their formation and style, but on their actual releases - remember, this is a discography.
 * Partially done, but does need more. Mister sparky (talk) 17:52, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Hmm. The lead is too extensive now (lol). As i said, remember it's a discography - it shouldn't stray away from the releases and details surrounding the actual releases. Information on television appearance, live success and their formation, is really not notable here and should be in the Lostprophets page only. You need to make sure discography is wikilinked in the first sentence (what if someone doesn't know what a discog is?). The second paragraph is trivial here and has nothing to do with the list, this part ("During this period the band built up a strong live following with support slots to popular acts such as Linkin Park and Deftones, as well as several headlining stints of their own.[4] The band subsequently toured with Ozzfest, played at Glastonbury and the Reading and Leeds Festival.[4][5] They also appeared on a number of British TV shows, including Top of the Pops, CD:UK and Never Mind the Buzzcocks. They also performed as part of the 2002 NME Carling Awards tour.") needs to be condensed. I understand that this was a major time for the band, with their success progressing without chart honors, but this is not all that relevant here. Critical response is superfluous here also. You need to concentrate on the releases. k.i.a.c  ( talktome  -  contribs ) 06:31, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Also we need to make a decision about the ep's. because you are contradicting each other on that as well. are they notable enough to be included or not. also have been looking for days and cannot find a reliable enough source to use so cant be included anyways. gah! what do u guys think? Mister sparky (talk) 15:46, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
 * My opinion is that they are not even EPs, they are in fact demos. Perhaps promotionally released to record labels or local fans when they were still small - there is no real claim for notability in each article and they should probably be deleted or merged into other articles. If you can find a reliable source proving this viewpoint wrong, then we can include them, if not then they have to stay out on the basis they are not actual EPs. k.i.a.c  ( talktome  -  contribs ) 11:50, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
 * okay as with the certs i'm going to remove the ep's until a reliable enough source can confirm whether they exist or not, and they lack notability. Mister sparky (talk) 12:21, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

More comments
 * MTV link only sources one of the videos, the other 10 need sources too.
 * Done now. Mister sparky (talk) 21:11, 13 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Find a better source for the two citations from Purevolume, it's self-published and not really necessary to be included here. Should be easy to find another one or two for what it's covering.
 * We're going to have to go through the lead thoroughly, it's not going to pass FLC as is. Note: "Featured List criteria 2. Lead. It has an engaging lead that introduces the subject and defines the scope and inclusion criteria." Concentrate on this, what's in the list is what we need to cover - the scope. Touring, producers and formation details aren't relevant here. k.i.a.c  ( talktome  -  contribs ) 10:42, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

Music video directors sources - which seem to contradict others. k.i.a.c ( talktome  -  contribs ) 11:22, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
 * "A Town Called Hypocrisy" directed by Ryan Smith posted by Visible Noise Records
 * "Rooftops" was co-directed by the band and Ryan Phillips (of Story of the Year) posted by Visible Noise Records. VH1 says it was Ryan Smith also though?
 * "Can't Catch Tomorrow" Ryan Smith posted by Visible Noise Records
 * "Burn Burn" Patrick Kiely VH1
 * "Last Summer" The Malloys VH1
 * "Wake Up" - was this only live in concert?
 * "The Fake Sound of Progress" Mike Piscetelli VH1
 * "Shinobi" Mike Piscetelli VH1
 * thank you so much!! still cant find refs for the director of wake up or goodbye tonight, its really frustrating!
 * Happy to help. I'm assuming "Wake Up" was only ever released as a live video - meaning I would personally not require a director, just a note and reference of where it was filmed or something. Link for Goodbye Tonight - not 100% sure about this reference though, as it is his current production company, which he joined after making the video. Nevertheless, it clearly shows he directed the video for "Tonight". k.i.a.c  ( talktome  -  contribs ) 13:09, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
 * voila! done. and thank you! you have much better searching skills than i have :) Mister sparky (talk) 13:26, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
 * You get used to it! :)
 * You need to replace the onlinemusikvideos link with the already provided VH1 links and this one for Last Train Home. I don't like the look of that website. You missed the ref for the Malloys too. And they should be on one line, no need to put a line break between director and the reference. Visible Noise should have a wikilink. k.i.a.c  ( talktome  -  contribs ) 13:41, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
 * better now? :) Mister sparky (talk) 14:33, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
 * We're getting there, we're getting there! I've done some fixes for you. There is still more to do however. 4:AM's reference could be replaced with this, which does not also contain Can't Catch Tomorrow for some reason. Found this on the website of the video's cinematographer, Christopher Pobst.

 * Only the original release's record label should be included. So Thefakesoundofprogress was originally released by only Visible Noise, I understand, so only VN should be listed, etc.
 * Done. Mister sparky (talk) 11:59, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
 * All three albums were released on both Columbia and VN in the UK? Should only list the first and main label to release it, only one.
 * forgot about the table! fixed now. 16:10, 18 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Singles table wikilinks: link GER → Media Control Charts, IRE → Irish Singles Chart, NZ → Recording Industry Association of New Zealand.
 * was told to de-wikilink those a few days ago?? Mister sparky (talk) 11:59, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I know, but they were wikilinked to the country pages when they were delinked, not the actual charts. :)
 * haha fair enough. changed now. Mister sparky (talk) 16:10, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

We're so close, so very close! One thing i will note, in the future get into the routine of using the most accurate title of a page in the reference, as opposed to just the most descriptive comment (eg. Use '"Shinobi vs Dragon Ninja" by Lostprophets' as opposed to 'Shinobi video and director'), anyway, nothing major, just something to consider.
 * thanks, does make it better :) Mister sparky (talk) 16:10, 18 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I screwed up the Last Train Home link, should be, that does not cover the director though. Ray Kay is wrong, he was the director of the Ryan Star song of the same name. Got one, select music videos then Brian Weber:
 * changed. Mister sparky (talk) 16:10, 18 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Why is the full release date needed in the lead? Does it really matter, especially when it would presumably be released on different dates internationally?
 * changed to just month and year. or better to be just year? Mister sparky (talk) 16:10, 18 August 2009 (UTC)


 * In the second paragraph, title should have commas on either side - The band's first album, Thefakesoundofprogress, was released..

Should be it after these. :) k.i.a.c  ( talktome  -  contribs ) 05:38, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
 * In the lead, mention the fact they have two top ten singles in the UK?
 * added. Mister sparky (talk) 16:10, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
 * UK Top Ten, "top ten" should be in lower case. Also remove Shinobi's mention of the UK Top 40 - not quite reaching the Top 40 has little relevance as compared to the Alt Songs chart and it's a bit long-winded.
 * changed. Mister sparky (talk) 12:36, 19 August 2009 (UTC)


 * As I mentioned below, Amazon is not a reliable source. Can you explain "Pictures of You" being the release? Wasn't "Boys Don't Cry" by Lostprophets released on just this NME Cure tribute? k.i.a.c  ( talktome  -  contribs ) 05:37, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * looking at the image in the nme article, pictures of you was the title of the cd. Mister sparky (talk) 12:36, 19 August 2009 (UTC)


 * What's with the table code style changes? The alignment is rather poor now. It was fine the way it was, you had a few supports, no need to do major changes so late in a review. k.i.a.c  ( talktome  -  contribs ) 07:53, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
 * hi, i was experimenting with an idea with the column widths. but you're right it doesnt rly work, so have changed them back now :) Mister sparky (talk) 13:11, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Are you sure that none of their singles have been certified? Are you sure that their albums have not been certified elsewhere? I would suggest doing a sweep of all the major sites, just to be sure.
 * In the "General" section follow "General" with " ", then the refs, then " " . This should free up the "Specific" section.

 * All three of those were promoted over 6 months ago, and are getting outdated. Its only a small thing to add is generally required per MOS:DISCOG. k.i.a.c  ( talktome  -  contribs ) 14:06, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
 * done now. Mister sparky (talk) 21:36, 13 August 2009 (UTC)


 * "The second track from Start Something, "Last Train Home", reached number one on the Modern Rock Tracks charts." Reference? Try using a different ref than ones used in the tables already.
 * did look but couldnt find a reliable one, only forums. so used billboard. Mister sparky (talk) 21:36, 13 August 2009 (UTC)


 * The image in the infobox needs alternative text per WP:ALT.
 * still dont understand what that means, have looked at other FL discogs to see what theirs was and couldnt find any alternative text? please clarify. i'm probably just having a blonde evening! Mister sparky (talk) 21:36, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
 * It's alright, alt text is a new requirement. Look at the infobox in Massive Attack discography, at the parameter that says "alt=". Dabomb87 (talk) 04:00, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
 * thank you! i understand now. added. Mister sparky (talk) 12:15, 14 August 2009 (UTC)


 * NME is published by IPC Media.
 * Done. Mister sparky (talk) 21:36, 13 August 2009 (UTC)

Comments from
 * In the singles table, the "GER" and "NZ" columns shouldn't be linked per WP:OVERLINK.
 * i de-linked them the other day as requested. but then 2 others said no change them back. make your minds up guys! Mister sparky (talk) 22:43, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * have been de-linked now. Mister sparky (talk) 15:37, 20 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Change the widths of the "Other appearances" table to fit the other ones, e.g. Song -> 210px.

Sources look good. Dabomb87 (talk) 15:54, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Ref 3, BBC Wales should not be in italics.
 * changed. Mister sparky (talk) 12:13, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * It would be great if you could find replacements for ChartStats, but I won't push the issue if you can't.
 * chartstats is used as the uk ref for all FL discographies that i've seen, its the only uk chart archive that covers positions 1-100 and is also listed at WP:GOODCHARTS as perfectly acceptable. Mister sparky (talk) 12:13, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Refs 8 and 9 need publishers, and should be formatted like the others.
 * added now. Mister sparky (talk) 12:13, 17 August 2009 (UTC)


 * What makes http://www.mvdbase.com/artist.php?last=Lostprophets&first= reliable?
 * been replaced now anyways. Mister sparky (talk) 12:13, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

 * What makes http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=268875 reliable? Dabomb87 (talk) 15:24, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * the source was recommended to me on this very page by kiac, so a reviewer would not recommend an unreliable source. Mister sparky (talk) 15:29, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * That's not very convincing, with all due respect to kiac and you. To me, it looks little more than a blog post by Anton Djamoos. Is he an expert? How do we know that the site gets their information from reliable sources? Dabomb87 (talk) 15:31, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * i do see what you mean, but in my search for a better source i found that the exactly the same info is listed at amazon.com, cd universe.com and punktheclock.com the makers of the cd and rolling stone. but will replace with rolling stone if you'd prefer? Mister sparky (talk) 15:36, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Rolling Stone would be great. Dabomb87 (talk) 15:39, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * added. Mister sparky (talk) 15:45, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks, but do we need the absolutepunk source anymore? Dabomb87 (talk) 15:48, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
 * haha very true. removed. Mister sparky (talk) 15:51, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Of those, only "Figure of Eight (Turbulent Soundscape mix)" from should be added per MOS:DISCOG.
 * Check out this, The Jam cover here and "Lucky You" is on the Spider-Man 2 soundtrack. k.i.a.c ( talktome  -  contribs ) 12:25, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
 * thanks for finding these guys! have added them to the article. suggestions for improvements? Mister sparky (talk) 16:34, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, Amazon is not a reliable source because it is a retail outlet. k.i.a.c  ( talktome  -  contribs ) 05:37, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
