I quite like linking the dates it is very useful when building the year in music pages to look at 'what links here' and then see that Abbado became principle conductor of the LSO, if you were working on 1979 for instance. SimonP 15:00 28 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Well, I don't feel very strongly about it (not today, anyway), so if you want to put them back, I won't remove them again. But I do think it looks ugly, and I think they're of very limited interest for the reader. --Camembert

I probably over linked the first time, you can cover every year for the conductors' by linking to just one of the two. SimonP 15:07 28 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Yeah, it looks much better now. Thanks Simon. --Camembert

It might be nice to have a link on this page to the other symphonies in London. Rmhermen 17:00 28 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Good idea - I've added five that I can think of. I'm sure there are others. --Camembert

Was looking at Londons Symphony Orchestra page, and it looks like that's all this is. Anyone else agree with the merge suggestion?

There is a redirect from the LSO page to the London Symphony Orchestra. I don't know how to set it up myself, but there should be a disambiguation page for the Local Shared Object entry.

[edit] Principal conductors

Why is there a principal conductors section when it just duplicates exactly what is in the template of the same name? I'll remove the section for now, it can be discussed here, if needed. I'll also preserve the table on this page Le the 21:28, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

although i am agnostic on the subject for now, i replaced the section on principal conductors as the issue should be discussed before article is changed. although the data is indeed somewhat redundant, it should be noted that the template only indicates begin dates, and do not reflect periods of vacancy. --emerson7 | Talk 05:23, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
