Template talk:"Weird Al" Yankovic

message: Hi.  I wonder how wise it is to include the Don't Download This Song video in the filmography section.  As I'm sure the interested parties know, Straight Outta Lynwood will have a total of six of these animated videos, all for original songs.  This will result in signficantly more videos, especially for this one album.  Also, it seems that Al's involvement in these videos will be minimal, especially compared to his other music videos.  I'm not even sure that all of these songs will have articles. --Maxamegalon2000 17:44, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Good question.  Should we include the other five videos as well?--Brand Eks 00:38, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

text: Yeah, any song that has an official video sould be on the list. JQF 02:27, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I disagree.  In light of Straight Outta Lynwood, I think any song that has been promoted and shown on TV (or other sources, like Don't Download This Song was) in some form should be listed as a single.  The rest of the songs on SOL shouldn't be listed since they weren't promoted apart from being extras as an incentive to buy the album. ~ Gromreaper 10:45, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

message: There seems to be this one page, List of "Weird Al" Yankovic polka medleys, that isn't on the template, so could someone add it? —T-borg (T | C) 19:42, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't all of Weird Al's songs be included in here? To an extent of course.Wikimichael22 (talk) 16:09, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: He has about 200+ songs. That's a little too much. Plus, every other artist on Wikipedia doesn't put all of their songs. There is, however, a page called Songs by "Weird Al" Yankovic, if you want to check it out. Thanks for the input though.--Gen. Quon (talk) 21:10, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

message: I think he has a lot of singles and enough for a separate template to sort them out with  his albums/soundtracks/etc. Why did it get redirected to this template? WIKIPEDIAN Penguin (♫♫)  20:39, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  [[Template:"Weird Al" Yankovic singles]] 

message: Considering we have a number of songs that are not released as singles but have notability on their own, and to keep the format/clarity with other musician templates, maybe perhaps we have the Singles line and then "Other Songs" to represent notable songs that were not released as singles but have separate articles. --MASEM (t) 19:33, 18 July 2014 (UTC)

message: OK to move that to the "soundtrack" portion or is there enough of the "Other Stuff" for it not to move? Mapsax (talk) 00:39, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
