message: I'm quite new to this Wikipedia thing and english is not my native languange, but one thing I could do is to cleanup the released album section. There is no need to put remastered albums on their own links as the information about those rereleases should appear under original album links. I happen to have all those remastered CDs, so I have the neccessary information about those at hand. I should begin this cleanup in a day or two. --ZagMac 13:01, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I just did some major work, deleted some NPOV stuff, got rid of duplicated info, reorganized a bit, and deleted redlinks to all the remastered albums. I switched the tag from cleanup to unsourced, since that's the main problem now. Chubbles 17:25, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

message: The article says electronica, but I've always heard Yello described as techno.  I've been listening to Yello since the 80s, before the term "electronica" was invented.  To me it sounds like "electronica" is what some people call the artists that used to be called techno, because to these people "techno" means something more like house or trance now.  Anyway, a google search on "yello electronica" yields 70.000 hits, but "yello techno" yields 178.000 hits.  I guess most people still feel the way I do. 193.91.181.142 02:52, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I wanted to suggest that indeed Yello made techno music.  The unnamed user above is correct. They also make significant number of ambient and downtempo tracks. These three more specific genres should replace the more general electronica, especially since we can leave the catch EDM genre because they dabble in Future Jazz, Soundtrack, Tribal, Trip Hop and Ambient Dub. - Shiftchange (talk) 01:51, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

message: is it really kosher to cite a wikipedia page that is simply from another language as a wikipedia source? not that a statement regarding how the band name "yello" came to be is significant by any means, but I'm just saying...would you use an un-cited statement from the native sri lankan wiki as a source for saying something about the tamil conflict on the english page? just doesn't seem right...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pfflyers07 (talk • contribs) 07:04, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

message: It would be interesting to include musical influences into the article, e.g. mambo is an obvious influence. Libido (talk) 04:52, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

message: They were on Mercury/Vertigo in Europe from the beginning. Stiff put a few 12"s out in the US, but never an album.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.128.190.96 (talk) 18:17, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

message: Here it is: https://www.flickr.com/photos/szene/8957815016
I uploaded a smaller version because my browser times-out when grabbing the full-size version from Flickr. Could someone please download the "original size" (click the "ooo" icon at Flickr). Then go to the Commons image and click "upload newer version". I would be grateful. I will later crop the image so that only Boris is in the shot to use for his article and this article.

thread_title:  Boris Blank image 

message: The associated_acts field of the infobox (which according to the template page "is for professional relationships with other musicians or bands that are significant and notable to this artist's career") lists The Residents. However, they are not mentioned in the article, and their own article does not mention Yello, Blank, Meier or Perón (but again, Yello is listed as an associated act).
Are they actually associated in some significant way or did someone just think they were sort of similar?

message: Looks like the (semi-)album "Yello Live At The Roxy N.Y. Dec.'83" is amiss from the discography. The album has been released in 1984 on vertigo/phonogram (catalog # 822262) and contains a single 15-minute track on the A-side. The B-side, while having a groove, contains no noticeable content and doesn't even have a disk label. Apparently, it has also been re-released on CD in 1989. More information here https://www.discogs.com/Yello-Live-At-The-Roxy-NY-Dec-83/release/163075
Cheers.
