Removal of hard rock
I'm removing hard rock since 4 genres are enough, heavy metal already covers hard rock, and it was added by a banned sock account. — Preceding unsigned comment added by I call the big one bitey (talk • contribs) 18:26, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
Jar of flies
Jar of flies should be in the discography. 100.12.138.225 (talk) 19:12, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
- Discography sections are for studio albums only. 4TheWynne (talk • contribs) 01:13, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- It is listed in the correct place, here, Compilation albums - FlightTime (open channel) 01:17, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
This is kind of a special case, as these EPs are basically considered studio albums. There was a prior discussion about it that went ignored (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Alice_in_Chains/Archive_2#Sap_and_Jar_of_Flies_should_be_added_under_Discography ). It should imo be considered to make an exception here and list the EPs in the section. --FMSky (talk) 03:56, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- I don't think that we should be making exceptions for some bands/artists and not others, and think it makes even less sense to make exceptions for only certain releases and not others as was suggested in the above discussion that unfortunately went overlooked; it will probably end up just circling back to the fact that there's a perfectly adequate discography list linked in the section. Unless you wanted to put a little more detail in the lead section, I don't see why anything needs to be done. 4TheWynne (talk • contribs) 05:56, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
