I like how this article says that it's only a compilation album when more than one artist is represented, then in the very next sentence is describing single-artist greatest-hits albums as a type of compilation album. 11:56, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
What do you think about tribute records, i.e. different artist recording (but not necessarily playing together) Beatles song for a tribute album? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.253.104.59 ( talk) 22:59, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
The result was Merge Budget cover albums into Compilation album, by silent consensus. -- B. Wolterding 17:31, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
I propose to merge the content of Budget cover albums into here, since the notability of that article has been questioned. In fact, if the information in that article is correct, it would nicely fit into Compilation album.
Please add your comments below. Proposed as part of the Notability wikiproject. -- B. Wolterding 10:18, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
No consensus to move. Vegaswikian ( talk) 01:53, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
Compilation album → Compilation — Compilation albums are usually known simply as compilations. This is also the commonest use of the term compilation, so would be the primary topic for compilation. Cjc13 ( talk) 11:48, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

I propose Greatest hits be merged here because, while not all compilation albums are greatest hits albums, pretty much a greatest hits album is a compilation of the artist(s)'s most successful compositions. Therefore, why not just include the greatest hits information in this article? Geeky Randy ( talk) 19:41, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
Oppose. In some ways any album is a compilation. In popular usage, a compilation album is an album of music by more than one artist. Greatest Hits is looked upon as being part of an artist's discography rather than a compilation but it is a sufficiently distinctive form to have its own article.
