*Oppose - in these cases I just ask myself if the article is findable easily. It is, so where's the problem? Also, most band articles are followed by (band) wherever the band name has any other meaning, so it's not as if this article is suffering from being different in that respect.

message: I've moved the two pics recently added by Enigmaticland to what seems more logical spots; also slightly modified the captions to describe the one with John Foxx and Robin Simon as the 'final lineup' of the band's 'first incarnation'. The prev. caption stating it was the 'first lineup' is misleading since Steve Shears was in that lineup, not Simon - however if anyone thinks it can be rephrased better, give it a go. On a separate but related topic, the source(s) of those publicity photos should probably be added to the image files... Cheers, Ian Rose 00:46, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

message: What does this quote mean?
"Island dropped the three Ultravox albums from its catalogue, and released a compilation of highlights from the group's first three albums in 1979, called Three into One, which was until the mid-1990s, the only available selection of Ultravox's early material."
Does that mean the first three albums were unavailable until the mid-1990s? If so, most definitely not true, as I for purchased all of them in the early 80s. If they were deleted from Island's catalog that's one thing, but the paragraph implies that the albums were non-existent until the 90s.70.91.35.27 (talk) 17:57, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Band name 

message: First sentence above is laughable you use the word "ARE" so I presume you mean "NOW" and you're using the word NEW WAVE - in 2012! only nearly 35 years after anyone would have described Ultravox in that way! and rock - hardly a "rock band" yes they used guitars sometimes but calling them "rock" is just misleading they are nowhere near being defined as a rock band. Synth-pop more than rock. Sort it out!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.174.159.254 (talk) 22:01, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Don't see any reason why not to use the word "are" (see other articles of active bands). But I agree with the two remaining items. The term "New Wave" is also mentioned in the following sentence (refering to the past) so we could easily get rid of it. "Rock band" - maybe a bit of it, but surely not exclusively. So what about writing: "Ultravox are a British band formed in 1974. They were one of the primary exponents ..." --GraceKelly (talk) 09:52, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
