thread_title: Merge with ''Input/Output''

message: Is this the same album now known to be called Big Blue Ball or a different project? Either way, both articles should clearly state the answer. Also, if the latter, is I/O confirmed to be the title or is it simply a working title? I thought it was the latter but the article states straight out that it is the title. 66.60.238.109 22:37, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I would like the answer to that as well!  I raised the same question on the "Talk" page of the main Pter Gabriel article a little while back and no one has responded yet.  :-(  211.26.1.82 10:23, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Needs to Be Updated 

message: This article should be deleted. For many years, I/O was simply the possible working title of a Peter Gabriel album. However, as Gabriel has so many songs in storage, and as of 2012 is working on brand new material (according to his video blogs), there is no indication that he will ever release an album called I/O. This article is essentially a vague interpretation of bits of news, gossip, and assumptions, clustered together as if it was a definitive plan for an album project that Gabriel has obviously no clear intention of completing and releasing. Valid details about Gabriel's work process from this period can be relocated to the Peter Gabriel article page, but there is no mention on Gabriel's official website that he is working on an album called I/O anymore. In an interview in Rolling Stone in Oct 2011, he stated that the I/O project was simply a set of song ideas he had been working on, rather than something he intended to finish and release. 88.104.25.229 (talk) 19:09, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: A few weeks ago the page became a redirect due to an AfD, which effectively became worthless once the album and tour was officially announced. There's no apparent reason why it shouldn't stay. Usernameofarat (talk) 01:33, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Keep article or redirect? 

message: Set for release on January 6 is a single entitled "Panopticom (Bright Side Mix)" whose cover art includes the title "i/o" (stylized as such). Spotify link here: https://open.spotify.com/album/3GNMqTdpaUO3wcmtFLT9yo
So with a single confirmed for release that virtually confirms a new album entitled i/o is on the way, should this article be reinstated? Or at least, does the topic deserve an article yet at all (whether it be the original or a rewrite). Elephantranges (talk) 18:39, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, the album was also officially announced alongside a tour last month. The deletion nomination is no longer relevant, so I vote to reinstate the article. Usernameofarat (talk) 20:09, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The discussion for i/o's 2nd nomination for deletion took place just a few weeks before the announcement of the i/o tour and album. Within the discussion, Superastig stated that "Anyone is free to restore the article once the album has received enough coverage." At this point, we have confirmation that several singles from the album will be released every full moon, although we have yet to receive an official release date or track listing. Once a release date and/or track listing is announced, I will certainly support the reinstatement of this article. I can even be convinced to reinstate the article now given that the Panopticom single already has its own page. Dobbyelf62 (talk) 03:36, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text:  
I would agree, not necessarily just because it’s been announced or had singles released from it, but because of its release method – with the way things are going, it seems like PG intends on releasing the tracks one by one as he has with the three that are currently out, rather than releasing the full album at once. I admittedly can’t confirm that, but I feel that we’re at the point where i/o can reasonably be considered an established, current, ongoing project that deserves its own article. Thoughts? —Elephantranges (talk) 01:51, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

text: Yes, at this point, I would support the reinstatement of the article for the reasons listed above. Dobbyelf62 (talk) 18:39, 19 March 2023 (UTC)
