Talk:Island Records discography

message: *Wow! wonderful article, but much too long.
**First task, extract (sub)labels.
***Expected to do cleanup in 15mn flat by simple extract/create.
***No way. The first label (Sue) already exists and had problems with Island (which was only a distributor).
***Now the situation is a more complex extract/duplicate or extract/merge.

replies: text: Hello Dilane, I think about your suggestion. It seems to be a good idea and neccessary. As soon as I'll find an hour to do it, I will start.

message: I have removed all or a majority of the fair use images on this page as their use was not in line with our Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria policy (likely in that the use is not minimal (3.a.) and it is in a list or a gallery (8.)) or our Wikipedia:Non-free content guideline that states that cover images may only be used for critical commentary on the cover itself, not just identification. Please do not re-add them without discussion. Kotepho 08:38, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: As I'm the person who started this page I think a discography is helpful with images. If you want to defend Wiki guidelines please identify yourself with a user page to have a better discussion. I change the page again. --Reinhard P. Braun 05:16, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  How does a user page allow better discussion?  Why would you complain about the lack of discussion, and then revert without discussion? Kotepho 13:46, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  ... Just because I invested time in this page - not you. Where have you been discussing your steps?--Reinhard P. Braun 21:44, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You see that first post in this section?  That is me trying to discuss this.  Your two posts talk about the lack of discussion, and yet you do not participate in the discussion--but in a meta discussion about there not being discussion.  If you would just respond to my post, there might actually be discussion.  Please desist this wankery, to which I will no longer respond. Kotepho 22:08, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Test case

message: Removed this: That's not to say that Island had lost the plot, but it might fairly be said that but for U2 and the nostalgia market, they could have slipped from public notice. - Can't say this can be true in the slightest. Looking at 1980 onwards we have Marianne Faithfull, Grace Jones, Steve Winwood, Robert Palmer, NIN, Paul Weller, Pulp, PJ Harvery, The Cranberries, all well known acts. 
Removed this: This was a shrewd move, since by then, the purchasers of those original vinyl albums had become both nostalgic and affluent.- Not very encyclopedic. True most of us get more nostalgic when we get older but I cringe at a lot of the stuff I listened to as a kid. And what has age got to do with how much money you have?
