and leave out the subjective & florid pontifications on the meaning of Foxx's lyrics! --feline1 15:07, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)

message: The second paragraph of the Departure from Ultravox section probably goes too much into the post-Foxx Ultravox. This material should be in the Ultravox article, if it isn't already. 207.172.87.49 05:34, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:John Foxx.jpg

message: I've been delving into information about Shifting City in order to add an article about the album, but stumbled on an interesting dilemma: there does not seem to be a certainty on when the album was released. This article lists its release date as 1997 (the same date of course going for Cathedral Oceans), as does Foxx's official website. Yet in both the Shifting City & Cathedral Oceans CD's they're marked as copyright (and whatever that P symbol stands for) 1995 Metamatic Records. The Discogs discography lists both as being released in 1995, while Allmusic quotes 1995 in the review but 1997 in the release details. So what? When? Huh? — Kjet (talk · contribs) 13:02, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: If it can help: Politikens Store Rockleksikon (2004, in Danish), which is usually a reliable source, lists the release date for both albums as March 1997. – IbLeo (talk) 19:56, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

message: Any reason why the Metamatic Records article has been redirected to the John Foxx article? Metamatic Records also has the artist Louis Gordon. I feel the record label with the releases should have a seperate article.--Electronic Music (talk) 16:09, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

message: I have removed 2,000+ bytes worth of unsourced, opinionated text out of the article, and tidied up formatting, information flow and regularised the referencing format.  It is still short of a decent article.  The external links section needs a reappraisal, the discography is way too detailed and therefore almost unreadable, and there are a number of paragraphs without any references.  Be bold by all means, but please do not add your own opinion and/or elements of fancruft/trivia/hearsay.
Verifiable sources from third parties are also still in the minority of the overall reference count.
