message: He did drop the Cheb from his name a while ago. Yes, there are a lot of people that have Khaled as a first name, but they never go with just Khaled. Waseem7
: Oh.  That's kind of funny - I guess he's not young enough to a "Cheb" any more! In that case, I guess you're right.  My apologies. - Mustafaa 23:39, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)

message: In the article it says:
"In response, fundamentalists sent death threats to some raï artists and murdered at least one, Cheb Hasni. The danger forced Khaled to move to Paris in 1986 (see 1986 in music). In 1992 (see 1992 in music), after dropping "Cheb" from his name, he released his self titled album Khaled, which established his reputation as a superstar in France and among Algerian emigrants around the world."
Just wanted to point out that Hasni was killed in 1994 and from the above text it makes it seem like he was killed in 1986 (and which forced Khaled to move). I think it could be worded better!
:Addressed comment. Waseem7 01:37, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  While perhaps all that was written before had too much unsourced conjecture (and thus was rightfully removed from the article), beginning with "In 1992" seemed far too limited. So, I've added a very short introduction, and a "source needed" tag. I don't have time to dig it up at the moment, but it should be found and added. Perhaps finding this will also allow for some further elaborations on offenses and threats without crossing into the territoty of original material. MXVN (talk) 14:37, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  I see that there is no explanation now of why he moved to France; perhaps one should be added if the source can be found. MXVN (talk) 04:13, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

message: The article lists this song as being on the soundtrack for the US film The Fifth Element. This actually is not the case- though the song was featured in the film, for some reason it was not released on the soundtrack. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 74.139.214.114 (talk) 14:24, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Where is the album Salam Maghreb? How should that album fit in his discography? It's not everywhere mentioned on the internet, but it exists (and it's a rather good cd as well). 84.82.213.147 23:48, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Khaled has several old recordings that were released as albums by record labels that are not his official one. These recordings are not included in the discography Waseem7 22:50, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  If it includes original material not available on another album, and a solid source can be found which shows a release year, label, track listing, etcetera, I'll add it to the discography. Until then, I agree with Waseem7, as there could be a great many "unofficial" albums, and unfortunately we'd need a source as to avoid listing something that is a bootleg, a sampler, not a true album, or doesn't actually exist. *EDIT: Amazon has a listing for Salam Maghreb, but it does not offer enough information. I looked on Discogs.com, and there was no sign of it there. However, Moule El Kouchi was released by his primary label at the time (Celluloid) in France, and on cassette, LP and CD formats. The track listing is original (not a compilation) so I've added it to the discography. MXVN (talk) 13:56, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

message: Khaled is from Algeria. Since I barely know Arabic myself, I'd like to ask you guys: is the Arabic he sings in a sort of Algerian dialect or is it a sort of standard Arabic understood in many Arabic-speaking countries without problems? For example, Abdel Halim Hafez sang in distinct Egyptian dialect with some parts fairly different from standard Arabic, presumedly not understood 100% by the whole Arab world. -andy 92.229.113.39 (talk) 06:36, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

message: Something went terribly wrong with the Dutch chart listings here. Khaled only ever had two Dutch top40 hits, cited as the source in the table:   http://www.top40.nl/top40-artiesten/khaled 
The competing Dutchcharts.nl has four listings by Khaled: the same two and two minor ones. http://dutchcharts.nl/showitem.asp?interpret=Khaled&titel=A%EFcha&cat=s 
I did not change the table (yet) because maybe somebody can shed a light on where these listings are coming from.

message: We may have to put something of a lock on the discography. The page says he was active from 1984 forward, because that is the earliest known official album (his label was Cellulose at the time) that can be confirmed, titled Hada Raykoum. This album used to be listed in the discography, as well as Cheb Khaled: Moule El Kouchi, released in 1985, and Fuir, Mais Ou? from 1988. Ya Taleb was also released on Celluloid, but we do not know the initial release year. It is listed as a compilation album, but this is also not verified. The first three, with confirmed release years on Cellulose, are the only albums that seem to be confirmed official before Kutche.
Now, for some reason, these albums are all removed, and several references exist for others which *cannot be verified* to be official albums. Nor can their release years be verified. Discogs may not be the only source of info, but most albums are there if they are anywhere, and these do not list enough information to include in the article. The changes (removing known official works and replacing them with perhaps unofficial tapes of unknown release year) are also not sourced. As such, I will remove them unless a good, verifiable source can be presented for each one. Also, as there is a verifiable source for at least the first three Celluloid albums mentioned, I will re-add them unless a good argument can be made as to why they should not be included.
In the end, we need an *agreed-upon standard* that will tell us which albums can be proven to be official enough to present here, and which cannot. MXVN (talk) 00:51, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
