[edit] Moving page

If nobody complains, I will be moving the page to BoA discography to match Category:Discographies. -- ReyBrujo 05:16, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

Nope, no one is complaing and its done. -- Darknshadow 00:44, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mini-albums?

It's true that they are not real albums, but under Korea's album naming conventions, they are still considered full albums, given the .5 designation. Therefore, I don't see why they're split up into "Full" and "mini" when the ".5" should suffice. SKS2K6 02:49, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pictures

If The Beatles can have pictures in their discography, why can't everyone else? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.231.37.93 (talk • contribs).

"If XXX can, why not us?" is not a good rationale for restoring covers. -- ReyBrujo 02:52, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

On the contrary. If adding pictures to discography is now, as you said on the other page, considered purely decorative Wikipedia policy, surely things need to be standardized across the board, especially regarding the most popular music act of the 20th century. By the way, I did read the article about Fair Use Policy: has anyone reached any kind of consensus as to what constitutes "decorative" means? By that I mean a discussion page where a sysop(or community debate that went to a vote, whichever) officially declared discography pictures as persona non grata. In some cases you could surely argue the covers are important parts of the artistic package. I suppose you could argue that having the pictures on the revelant CD/album pages would be enough, but surely having the pictures in one article displays a quick visual guide to the evolution of the artist(again I must point to Pink Floyd and The Beatles as an example) without taking place in the main artist page. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.231.37.93 (talk • contribs).

You can discuss discography usage at Wikipedia:Fair use talk page. -- ReyBrujo 02:06, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] BoA videos

Shouldn't BoA videos be merged here? I do not think we need two lists in the same way we don't need a single and an album list. -- ReyBrujo (talk) 03:38, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

That's what I figured too, but when I did it on another artist's page, it got deleted. I have no problem if you want to merge it, :) Rosalietruong (talk) 03:55, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
