thread_title:  Setting 

message: The Soundtrack section was made into two collapsible objects. I was skeptical of the change of the second section from adequate prose into a more dull list.  Changing that list into a table is overcomplicated even if the table can be now hidden.  Having two collapsible boxes is messy and cluttered. If you could make it so the whole soundtrack section could be collapsed in one go instead of two boxes it might makes some sense.  This doesn't really make sense at all if it is not part of a policy (or some kind of consensus) that others are working to apply to the Soundtrack sections across other film articles.  -- Horkana (talk) 00:24, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I was looking at the featured articles list, and can not find (during a short search) any movies that list all of the songs on the soundtrack  (see Mulholland Drive or The Mummy) or else they have a separate page for it (see Casino Royale).  This is not the case for all pages (see Moulin Rouge! or Repo! The Genetic Opera), but those are musicals (if you consider Repo! as such) and have not been featured articles.  Perhaps there is a counterexample, but from my perspective, films that don't depend on the music to further the plot don't need a music section, or should have it on a separate page, with pertinent information about the music on the actual page (as with the Casino Royale page).  For example, if you feel the need to talk about Munch trying to impress Em with that song, then put it in the music section, NOT after the name of the song.  It's distracting and looks less professional.  So, my solution in the meantime is to make the plot section collapsible (I actually meant to make it collapsed when the page loads, but I seem to have done it wrong).

replies: text: Also, can I get rid of the infobox?  There's nothing necessary in there that can't be moved to the music section itself.  Jabberwockgee (talk) 02:39, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  From my limited understanding of the Wikipedia soundtrack project they seem to prefer using a separate page, that would be a good way to keep this all consistent.  This article I think will more than detailed and be long enough on its own.  Infoboxes tend to be redundant, a summary in a way. I would NOT encourage you to delete it and any way if you do decide to create a separate page it will look better to have it.  I notice now that by using a table you removed the numbered track listing, the use of a numbered list was very much intentional there. (I did remove the use of a numbered list on the additional songs because putting a numbered order on them didn't make sense, I'd still be tempted to revert back to the prose explanation of the additional songs and try to clean that up.) Go for it. -- Horkana (talk) 14:41, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  I've discovered there is a Tracklist Template. It isn't as simple and straightforward as using a list but it is a lot less ugly than using a table. I strongly encourage you to use it or revert to the numbered list which was there before.  -- Horkana (talk) 20:02, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I have changed the one that has numbered songs to a numbered list.  Jabberwockgee (talk) 17:32, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

replies: text:  I don't like it but I'm not going to try and block you from doing it. I urge you think if it is really a good idea and if it shouldn't just be separated out into another article. -- Horkana (talk) 23:49, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: All of my corrections have been reverted.  Congrats on having an ugly page again, everyone.  Jabberwockgee (talk) 17:08, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Formatting 

message: Someone (not me, I'm terrible with this stuff) should create a separate page for the soundtrack, not only is it brilliant (by itself or taken with the other songs used in the film), but the other songs used within feature a prominent role in the movie, as evidenced all the Lou Reed, Neil Young, Husker Du, Big Star references, shirts, etc.  From a purely clerical perspective, the soundtrack section is rather large...typically you'd just see a track listing (not that I'm arguing for someone to just wipe it out and not put up a new page - don't!). ````Jason H
