Talk:Yellowcard

message: I don't think stuff as time lines (when which song and which video from that album was released on the bands myspace page, for example) belongs into an encyclopedia. Either a native speaker rewrites that or I'll do it. And this ain't going to be pretty ;) . 78.48.233.201 08:51, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Far too much information in "Paper Walls" part

message: I was pretty sure these guys moved out to LA at some point and their myspace ( http://myspace.com/yellowcard ) also mentions it, however I find no info on this in the article. 
>>For singer and guitarist Ryan Key, the experience felt overwhelming, and more than a little pivotal. A year since the release of their major-label debut, Ocean Avenue, and five years since the band staked out from its Jacksonville, Florida hometown for Los Angeles, Yellowcard had grown (very quickly) into full-scale rock phenomenon. With three hit singles under their belts, sold-out tours across the globe and Ocean Avenue going on to sell 2.5 million copies worldwide, it felt like the closing of a very successful chapter.
Maybe this wiki could clarify this section of history Psycadelc 17:53, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: yellowcard in LA?

message: I removed the official statement from the "original lineup" section of the article because it was copy/pasted from the band's website, and not really necessary for wikipedia.  -Varco 02:15, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

message: I'll get rolling on the cleanup sometime this weekend. Shouldn't be too hard...
By the way, is anyone on here also active on the Underdogs message board? Cathryn 00:07, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: More coming...

message: Yeah, this article references "Midget Tossing" as the first album, but "One for the Kids" as the debut album. I'm not a genius or particularly well-versed in music terminology, but aren't the two the same thing?
:It's a tricky topic for this band (and is frequently discussed on fan message boards).  The lineup (not to mention--disputably--the band's general tone and style) underwent such a drastic change between "Midget Tossing" and "One for the Kids" (and, to a lesser degree, between "Where We Stand" and "One for the Kids") that it's hard to say just what is their "first" album.  Since the band's name and a few of their members carried over to "One for the Kids," "Midget Tossing" is often called their "first" album.  However, "One for the Kids" was the first album released by the current (main) lineup and matches the band's sound in proceeding albums much more closely...thus, it's often labelled their "debut" album.  Still, I agree that the labels are pretty subjective & tricky to deal with.  
:Does that make any more sense? Cathryn 08:26, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh, also, many fans (and journalists) call "One for the Kids" the band's "debut" album for reasons of notoriety...it's often considered their breakout album in many ways.  Of course, the big bucks didn't start rolling in until the band signed with Capitol for "Ocean Avenue," but "One for the Kids" was when they really started to get their name out there.  Cathryn 08:39, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Another interesting point: no albums released before "One for the Kids" are listed under the band's discography on their own official website...even though "Where We Stand" was re-released last year as a promotion preceeding the "Lights and Sounds" release.  Very interesting.  (And confusing.)  Cathryn 08:56, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  First Album/Debut Album 

message: The amount and content of the trivia is simply ridiculous and needs to be cut down. It seems like whoever posted it all is simply trying to promote Yellowcard rather than to inform.
:No kidding! I added some templates that might call attention to the need for help (and if nothing else, they'll at least let readers know that a lot of what is being said is kind of fishy).  
:Any ideas?  I'm tempted to just scrap the whole section, but maybe it would be better to pick a few important points, dig up verifiable sources for them, and delete everything else.  (But that's a lot of work for a decidedly "trivial" problem. ;) )
:It's too bad they took down the "Trivia" section from the band's new website (as of the L&S release).  That would have been a good place to start.  Cathryn 08:32, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Trivial Trivia 

message: Longineu W. Parsons III is mentioned as in the starting line up in the text, but is missing from the Initial lineup list for Midget Tossing Section (4.1).
:Well, then, fix it! ;)  
:What?  You didn't?  Fine, fine, I'll go do it.  Cathryn 08:33, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

message: This section needs to be edited for neutrality.  The tone may be appropriate for a fan message board, but not a general information encyclopedia. Cathryn 08:17, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: ''Lights and Sounds''

message: Okay.  As I see it, things are looking good--only a few changes still need to be made to whip this into shape:
*Expand and clarify introduction
*(Possibly) further clean up History (correct tone and flow; get source for MTV News citation)
*Clean up neurtality issues in Lights and Sounds under Lineup Changes (Good luck with this--it's a very touchy subject right now.  Both Capitol and the band members themselves have been pretty mum about the whole thing.  The MTV source already cited in the section may be the only place to get good information.)
*Figure out what in the world to do with the Trivia section (Again, good luck.  I'll try to see if I can get the info from the Trivia section from the old website, but I'm not sure I'll be able to.  To whomever tackles this: please keep in mind that if you can't cite a source, it doesn't belong on Wikipedia--save it for the Yellowcard message boards.) 
Any other ideas?  What else needs to be done?
Hooray for cleaning up such an awkwardly worded, opinionated mess!  :)  Cathryn 09:32, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Apart from what you already said, the whole Lineup changes section needs to be re-written in prose and incorporated into the History. Anything notable from the Trivia should be referenced and merged into the History as well. --Fritz S. (Talk) 10:26, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I like the merging ideas, although the article won't be very long after it's done. :)  What does anyone else think?  Cathryn 23:34, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

message: The Japanese release of the "Ocean Avenue" album was released with the name "Special Edition" attached and comes with four bonus tracks and the musical score of the song "Ocean Avenue" plus a couple of videos (viewable on PC) it seems. I have a copy of this disc and | here is another reference (with tracklist). I'm not sure whether this should be added just on the Ocean Avenue page or as a separate album or just as trivia or what... My knowledge of the band is very very limited (buying the CD is the first look at them I've taken) so I'd feel wrong adding the information myself. ProdigySim 09:11, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

It's not like blink-182's hiatus though. The members are still getting along, they just said they need a break to get in touch with themselves or something like that.
