message: So apparently this we know: there was a 7-track EP-length album produced by Peyroux and Wilison.  When she began to produce her own album Careless Love and decided not to perform the other songs, his interests came into conflict with hers, as well as the record company's.  The record company wanted to put out the one album.  Wilison wanted them to release his album, and if not, to have Peyroux promote it.  It isn't quite clear to us, for legal reasons, what Peyroux wanted.  Currently the album has been brought to full length by several songs of his - but obviously it would be to his advantage if the album was marketed as hers.  It seems from all this - the album is more his than hers, she doesn't officially acknowledge it, it didn't receive the release at the same time - suggests that the prominence of this paragraph in the article, as well as the placement and equation of the two albums is inappropriate.  Any thoughts? Huangdi 13:50, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: My feeling is that it doesn't matter to us whether or not she acknowledges the album (officially or otherwise) — it's partly by her, and belongs in the article.  The fact that it's surrounded by so much controversy would tend to support its being given more prominence. --Mel Etitis  (Μελ Ετητης) 17:01, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I respectfully disagree.  In any case - a separate issue - she did not release the album, he did.  So at least an effort should be made to differentiate Careless Love and Got On Your Mind.  And now you've made a bunch of extra changes to my edits outside of our discussion.  I've taken a break from more politically charged topics only to say hello to the frying pan... However I do have I high tolerance for this, to let you know. Huangdi 17:08, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

text: Hold on here.  I am not making this a "battle".  I will look over the articles, both of which rely mainly on him as a source, and try to incorporate both.  The fact that my spelling correction was painted over suggested to me that you reverted without much attention.  In good faith I'll take that back.  "Rave" I think was someone else's add.  If not, I apologize, but it is hardly a sin - I'm sure you find the word used in many published music reviews. Huangdi 08:41, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Mystery Album

message: There was an edit in the article that added some information about William Galison that I just removed. 
All of the information under "legal issue" is supported by the link at the end of this section. Any additional statements NEED to be supported and cited. This is a picture perfect example of a situation where unsupported info could land the editor, and Wikipedia, in hot water. 
Thanks!NickBurns 18:19, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you and whoever else made this section more appropriate.  I'd been trying to do that for a while. Huangdi 07:01, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: WP Biography Rating

message: Hello, I have been looking for information about the year of birth of Madeleine Peyroux and it tends to be 1973 instead of 1974, as it is written in the article. What about changing it? --Webeafix 12:55, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Year of birth 

message: Perhaps their relationship and subsequent legal problems deserve to be mentioned, with several supporting refs. There are several videos of her testimony on YouTube, such as this one: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=YOfRZ7ssGIk which were supposedly uploaded by Galison himself.

replies: text: Ok then, maybe I'll add something on it, with plenty of refs. SteveRamone 21:54, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: William Galison

message: A lot of journalists say that Madeleine Peyroux is 'highly reminiscent' of Billie Holiday, but that's because she's the only name they can think of. It's a flattering comparison of course, but it seems to me that Madeleine has her own unique vocal style and therefore the article should say something like: "a voice often described as reminiscent of Billie Holiday". With supporting refs, of course. SteveRamone 01:31, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Madeleine Peyroux.jpg

message: The "Image and Publicity" section is not written in a WP:NPOV style.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dannygutters (talk • contribs) 19:20, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Image and Publicity 

message: "Women, Art and Work" seems to be apologetics and unrelated to the purpose of an encyclopedia. The section about critics not understanding her personal life being off limits and her fans loving her anyway has a similar problem--is this an encyclopedia or a press release?
The article makes no mention of her legal problems. I don't know how to formally dispute the neutrality of an article on Wikipedia but it seems this article is verging on the edge of "puff."  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.89.192.125 (talk) 06:29, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Apologetics 

message: It is a huge oversight to leave off her involvement with The Lost Wandering Blues and Jazz Band.  It has played an important part of her musical life.  You could say she cut her professional teeth as a member of this group, and she continues to play with them when she can.  A recent example being a performance for an event at the UN in New York, which my parents attended and photographed (so I may be able to get hold of images if useful).--Amedeo Felix (talk) 10:49, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Lost Wandering Blues and Jazz Band 

message: There has been a controversy about the quality of Miss Peyroux's live performances and I think it should be mentioned on the article. I've read several bad reviews on her, this  was just the last one. Anybody else thinks it should be added? S2A (talk) 15:05, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Live Performances 

message: Can't anyone find a more flattering picture of her for this page?  She is a beautiful woman but this picture just makes her look downright scary!
