I would like to say that you have missed out their first album from the chronology. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.151.133.134 ( talk • contribs)
I can find no reference on the 'net for "Brothers in Arms" being the first CD single. - Foetusized ( talk) 14:58, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
This single from Phil Collins ( http://991.com/buy/productinformation.aspx?StockNumber=63767) is from 1982, preceding Brothers in Arms by at leasts 2 years. So Brothers in Arms certainly wasn't the first CD single. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.58.163.112 ( talk) 21:49, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
Is this text true for the UK as well as the USA?
"Due to pressure from record labels, singles charts became song charts, allowing album cuts to chart based only on airplay, without a single ever being released."
I remember the new rules for what could be classed as a "Single" coming in (no more than 3 tracks etc.) but as far as I remember it continued to be the "Singles" chart until a couple of years ago when Download sales were added. 86.164.183.227 ( talk) 19:26, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Who calls it a Compact Disc single? This is a much simpler title and just about every song infobox on Wikipedia has it linked like this anyway. Relisted. Jenks24 ( talk) 12:08, 3 July 2012 (UTC) Unreal7 ( talk) 13:08, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

– The term CD single describe 8cm CD single in Japan and also in documentation, while the text apparently imply (both before and after my latest edit) somewhere in the world people call 12cm CD single as simply CD single. The best course of action in this case I suppose would be leave the
CD single page as disambiguation page and then diffierentiate them clearly by their numerical form factor. I also suggest the renaming of mini CD single to 8cn CD single to align with it and to avoid confusion.

As per Amakuru's suggestion above, and the Technology section as well as technical specification section in the Mini CD single article seems to suit the Mini CD article better. C933103 ( talk) 14:17, 5 March 2016 (UTC)
