Dido discography

I think this discography about the British singer is comprehensive and well referenced. -- Underneath-it-All (talk) 22:12, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

  • It reached reached number one and went nine times platinum in the UK.[3][4] - "reached reached?"

Fixed this -- Underneath-it-All (talk) 22:30, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

• • The record enjoyed international success with sales of over twelve million.[5] - enjoyed? is there another word for this, this word, in my eyes, is very wordy, in other words not right here.

I changed it to "experienced". Does it sound better now? -- Underneath-it-All (talk) 22:30, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

• • In the singles table, you have general references for the charting of the singles, yet their is an individual ref for some of them, while this doesn't hurt the article, if they are covered by the general ref, their really isn't no use for individual ones. Now if this is the opposite, then they can stay.

The extra references are for the chart positions not covered by the general references at the top of the table. -- Underneath-it-All (talk) 22:30, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

• • For the misc, what makes them notable to be in her discography, if they haven't appeared in an album or chart?

This section is included in other featured discographies. -- Underneath-it-All (talk) 22:30, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

• Comments
  • For a list of this length I'd prefer to see the lead expanded - there seems plenty to talk about.
  • "Dido" used in first three sentences, can we be more imaginative?
  • The lead is a series of quite choppy trivia-esque short sentences, I'd recommend a copyedit to improve the flow and hence hit criterion 1, prose.
  • Don't think those dates in the releases need to be wikilinked.
  • Extended plays has a note B but a note A underneath the table.
  • No need to overlink DVD in the videos section.
  • Still concerned over Zobbel being an RS.

Hopefully I got everything. As for Zobbel, I used it as a reference because it is listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Discographies/style -- Underneath-it-All (talk) 00:44, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Comments

• The text has a lot of information about this artist and awards, but the article is a discography rather than awards list.
• Why the image is so small?
• Singles
  • Title → Song
    • "Don't Think Of Me" → "Don't Think of Me"
• Videos → Video albums per The Rambling Man comments on Opeth discography FLC page;
  • Title → Video details
    • Dido: Live At Brixton Academy → Dido: Live at Brixton Academy
• Music videos
  • Director → Director(s), per Dr. Dre and Philip Atwell;
  • "Here With Me" → "Here with Me";
• Miscellaneous? → Other appearances;
  • "Do They Know It's Christmas?" → Album...?
• I could not understand why to be used Title instead Album details.
• Sales= 12 or 9 million where?
• The tables aren't aligned.

Oppose For all that I saw and read, not yet ready for such a FL. Cannibaloki 02:16, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

I have added your comments into the article. As for the information on awards, I have included them in past featured discographies and haven't received any objections. Also, on my laptop using Firefox the tables appear to be aligned. -- Underneath-it-All (talk) 04:11, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
