Talk:Queen discography

message: Is this article even neccessary? Queen's discography is included in their main article. TheImpossibleMan 21:57, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, it's necessary and standard practice. Queen have an extensive catalogue and the full discography is way too large for inclusion within the band's main article. I support the retention and improvement of ths article, and the severe trimming of the Discography section in Queen (band). --kingboyk 10:13, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

message: The section on Greatest Hits lists its status as 11x Platinum however it gives its sales figures as 5.5 million + which would actually make it 18x Platinum as the BPI awards platinum status on sales of multiples of 300,000 copies.

thread_title:  Greatest Hits 

message: At least one song's link leads to a sub-section in the album's article, but there are entire articles about the individual song, and the link takes the reader to a little snippet about the song in the album's article. In fact, one of the songs linked to one of these sub-sections, and then under the song name it had a main article link. Can't we just link the songs with their own articles to those articles? Why the indirect links? I think we can be more helpful to the readers. Fdssdf (talk) 07:23, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Song links 

message: I believe that something's wrong with the numeration of the tracks on the studio albums. For example "Keep Yourself Alive" is the first track on the "Queen" album but here on Wikipedia it has no number (only "#") and "Doing All Right" is numbered as the first song (in real world it's second). I've tried to edit that, but nothing happens to work. Pacio (talk) 18:26, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

This provides a groundwork for discussion on the finer points, which should hopefully lead to consensus! -Rushyo (talk) 00:24, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: My edit makes the section less confusing and it removes unnecessary information. Like a user above me sated, we don't need the tracklisting on the discography page. Thats what the Album pages are for. My edit also makes it look more updated and professional. My edit includes the names, dates, artwork, and chart positions in a chart wheareas the the current one just has it in confusing sentences sans the album artwork. Plus, do you really think its fair that Britney Spears has a better discography page than Queen? --FreddyFreak (talk) 03:15, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Actually (and I can't believe I'm saying this) but I think I'm gonna have to disagree with you on this one. The band have continually positioned their partnership with Paul as effectively being Queen + a guest singer, had they marketed themselves under a completely different name then I'd agree.

thread_title:  Redirect error? 

message: Since there seems to be a disagreement about whether or not the entries about Queen + Paul Rodgers should be in the article, I'm starting a discussion here about it. My personal opinion is that they should not be included, because Queen + Paul Rodgers is a whole different band, and have a discography of their own. What do others think about the article?

replies: text: There is only 1 dynamic IP user (and his/her occasional single purpose accounts) that keep re-adding the unreq'd content. Q+PR is a separate band from Queen and their recorded content details go in the article specific to them, not this one. Queen stopped being Queen in any official standing in 1997. So any projects that Brian May and Roger Taylor do are no t "Queen"... they are "X featuring former Queen members Brian May and Roger Taylor". I am having every IP that tampers with the article blocked for disruptive editing. The Real Libs-speak politely 16:32, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: What does "Queen stopped being Queen in any official standing in 1997." mean? Define "official"! The surviving two of the three founding members of Queen continue to use the name - why isn't that "official"? Other bands have continued under the same name with different personnel (Sugababes springs to mind as an extreme example), so why are you so pedantic about Queen? Your suggestion to block users who differ in opinion seems only spiteful. To the point about the inclusion of Queen + Paul Rodgers in this discography, I note that Queen: The Ultimate Illustrated History of the Crown Kings of Rock () includes The Cosmos Rocks in its Queen discography without setting it off in any way. So why shouldn't we do the same here? --Ant (talk) 12:10, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

text: Eh, what the heck is this dictatorial stance about what is and is not "Queen"?  Bottom line is that Brian May + Roger Taylor are marketing themselves as "Queen," not as "X featuring former Queen members Brian May and Roger Taylor."  That is a fiction invented by an editor who has a rather unreasonably dogmatic view of the subject.  If you want to run this in any manner resembling a professional encyclopedia, the legal entity "Queen" is now composed of Brian May and Roger Taylor.  That is why the "Cosmos Rocks" album is listed as "QUEEN" + Paul Rodgers.  The point is that the band and its music is a continuation of the 70s band that once also included Freddie Mercury and John Deacon.  Whether some purist agrees with this decision is besides the point: legal recognition and ownership of the name "Queen" as the name of a rock band now belongs to Brian May and Roger Taylor and that his how they are marketing themselves.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.88.111.111 (talk) 03:41, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The official Queen web site includes the Rodgers material.  I think that makes it clear that they consider the "Queen" part of "Queen + Paul Rodgers" to be the same Queen, therefore it is all part of the same discography. 24.149.45.52 (talk) 18:25, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

message: Queen did indeed release 7 EPs but only one has got listed separately. This is therefore incorrect. Either the choice is to list all EPs as singles with a footnote that it actually were EPs released, or one has to consequently list all EPs separated from the singles releases. The main title tracks on those EPs may be regarded as songs releases aimed at the singles buying public, nevertheless they are NOT singles releases. EPs got listed in UK singles charts from the 70s on, but not in the 60s. 83.85.143.141 (talk) 16:57, 4 December 2016 (UTC)
