Opening a discussion as suggested by @ Paper9oll. I personally don't think it's necessary because Wikipedia:WikiProject Discographies/style suggests to keep a chronological order of releases and NCT 127 doesn't have a huge discography which would require an ulterior subdivision. Other than the fact that it's used in K-pop articles, which is just a convention not an actual guideline, I don't see how it would be necessary. Pinging @ 124.120.122.235.

Every artist is different, and therefore no two discographies will be exactly the same ... It is our goal to provide information in the best way possible, so a strict adherence to the guidelines listed above may not always be the best way to accomplish our goals", while "
every artist is different" depends on how you actually intrepret it, however it's quote "
It is our goal to provide information in the best way possible, so a strict adherence to the guidelines listed above may not always be the best way to accomplish our goals" which imo is what matters. — Paper9oll ( 🔔 • 📝) 16:15, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
I agree with Poirot09 that separating the tables by language doesn't improve this particular article. I think it does work for some articles, where the artist has really a extensive discography with a clear division by language/region. The TVXQ singles discography is an example of one of those (though wow, I would just make those two different tables — it's way too long). But NCT 127's discography is not nearly as long as to make separation necessary for readability. In any case, I would be hesitant to make any judgements about whether an album is Korean, Japanese, or English without confirmation from independent sources. It doesn't look like we have that for Up Next.
Also there may be some accessibility concerns with putting column headers in the middle of a table, per MOS:COLHEAD. I'm not sure if there is consensus on that, but you might reach out to Wikipedia:WikiProject Accessibility to ask. Lenoresm ( talk) 20:06, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
