Paul Kelly discography
I believe that this passes the criteria for a featured list and I think that it should be recognised as such. Dan arndt (talk) 00:39, 10 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Support - my issues have been resolved to meet the FL Criteria.-- S R X  23:12, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Dates—It's not so much that you don't need to autoformat dates, but that such is deprecated at WP:MOSNUM. I've updated the discog guidelines, which I note are a proposal only. Tony   (talk)  03:31, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I have no problem with going along with WP:MOSNUM (and your new edit of MOS:DISCOG) over earlier MOS:DISCOG guidelines, I only thought the latter was an exception to the former and didn't realise it was outdated: thanks for the clarification.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 22:18, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

certification columns have been re-sized - the blue cells represent those singles that were not released in the US and hence did not chart in the US. Dan arndt (talk) 23:59, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Questions - Why are the certifications columns so wide, and why are some of the cells in the tables blue while others have em dashes? Jennavecia  (Talk)  14:37, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Comments
 * What makes the following reliable sources?
 * http://hem.passagen.se/honga/database/k/kellypaul.html


 * Some 110 articles cite Australian Rock Database (ARDb), see wikipedia search result. ARDb is a listing of Australian rock artists as edited by Magnus Holmgren, it contains substantial information on their albums (including different types of releases in different markets), band members, record producers/labels and projects for these artists. Some of the 110 articles found above are GA (I helped write three) and I have used ARDb. It is run independently of the artists' control although they are sometimes acknowledged as sources for the information. I believe it is a reliable source. It would be difficult to find another on-line resource for this sort of information about Australian rock bands.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 06:23, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


 * The Australian Government sponsored site Australian rock music lists Australian Rock Database as a resource for information on the Music industry.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 16:21, 20 September 2008 (UTC)


 * http://www.mvdbase.com/index.php?


 * Only 91 articles use mvdbase.com mostly discography articles. In particular, Powderfinger discography is an FL and was cited above as one of my starting points.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 06:23, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


 * http://www.amws.com.au/pk/bio/1997.html


 * Australian Music Web Site is an internet site which relies on its accuracy for sales and information.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 06:23, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


 * http://www.discogs.com/


 * Will replace this ref with a better one if necessary.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 06:23, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Found the liner notes for the album and they agree with the discogs entry on this particular album, I have left the discogs ref as it is now only a back-up to the liner note ref.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 09:35, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

 * A site sponsored by Brisbane City Council, which is independent and reliable.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 06:23, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Pick one, either put the author's last name first or their first name first in the references, but be consistent.

Authors names have been added to those references that have been used. Sanity is a music store. Dan arndt (talk) 03:33, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Otherwise sources look okay, links checked out with the link checker tool. Ealdgyth - Talk 12:37, 18 September 2008 (UTC)


 * I believe that I've consistently used, last name, first name for authors in the references but that editors are given as first name last name:. Throughout I use the cite web, cite news or cite book forms as applicable. Could you point out an e.g. where this has been inconsistent? I may have missed one.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 05:35, 19 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Support - Is it possible to seperate the Compilations table into "Live albums" (Live...Live at the Continental) "Compilations" (Songs from the South) and "Live DVD's" (Ways and Means, Live Apples) to provide a bit more detail... I've tried myself but not that up on wikitables and don't want to muck up your great work. DISEman (talk) 03:29, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I suppose that it is possible to separate the Compilations table, but I'm no wiz with wikitables either and it would take awhile. I'll have a try at it on my sandbox later today but can't promise it'll get done today.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 03:53, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Some 'FL' discographies such as the Powderfinger discography do not split them into various tables but I do not others do - guess it is simply a question of style and what the user considers looks good. Dan arndt (talk) 04:04, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Yes check.svg|20px]] I've had a go at splitting the tables, have a look, see which you prefer.Shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 05:35, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
