An article should be written on the new live album from the recent reunion. The name escapes me now though. Robotman 1974 03:45, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
This is definitely a compilation by any reasonable definition, so I've moved it back. -- Richardrj talk email 13:29, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
This is an idea for a new lay-out. Please let me know what you think.

Personally I think it's quite nice and clear and not so much text-based as the discography was. But do covers get used on Wikipedia discography articles at all? Mark in wiki ( talk) 14:05, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

This latest revision of the page saddens me. Mostly because the addition of chart succes seems to imply that succes is relevant to art. I feel it is an enormous simplification to reduce art to a mere contest of who has the most fans or who wins the most money. In my view commercial succes is an uninteresting factor when it comes to assessing art, and if there is a place to mention or discuss it, it should be the article about the band, not the discography. But maybe this is Wikipedia-policy, which is why I didn't simply undo the edits. Also, I only see columns for UK, DE and NL, when it is obvious that in the case of VdGG if you really need to say something about commercial succes a column for Italy would be the most important one. Which is discussed in the article about the band of course. Now to me it is just an ugly collection of dashes. Also, the inclusion of the album title a certain single was taken from, implies that VdGG was a hit-machine, which it was not. Furthermore I have tried to restore all information that was lost in the revision, such as dates. Mark in wiki ( talk) 11:53, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
