This article is bordering on ridiculous. It is basically a running year-by-year commentary on particular albums with way too many Prince tangents. Very little mention of the internal workings of WBR, it's status as the "artist's label", The acrimony over the Ostin family and Waronker's ouster, and most egregious of all: only a passing mention of Warner's 25 year relationship with Van Halen and their effect on the label. Heavy editing is needed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.173.74.234 ( talk) 22:41, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
This article has become very convoluted to the point of being almost vague. Instead of focusing primarily on the topic of Warner Bros. Records, it puts way too much focus on the history and broad scope of Warner Music Group overall. The WBR article has always focused too much on WMG, but since the expansion it's gotten worse. —The Real One Returns 17:20, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
Yes, much of the new material is more appropriate for the Warner Music Group article. I think any text that goes beyond a simple mention of Atlantic, Elektra and/or WEA should be moved to the WMG article. Steelbeard1 ( talk) 18:08, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
According to this list http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_albums_worldwide MarkMc1990 ( talk) 00:00, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
Tagging WB's distributor as 'WEA Corp.' seems a bit erroneous. Yes, WEA is the retail distributor of all WMG labels, but WB is self-managed and is its own distribution label; overseeing everything *before* it ultimately gets sent to WEA for hard shipments. Distribution label should be credited to Warner Bros. Records. - The Real One Returns ( talk) 03:08, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
Giant Records is a former Warner Label? Giant_Records_(Warner) and giantrecords.se say some different => "© Giant Records A Warner Music Group Company." (at the bottom, also email, "termns of use" ...). -- WikiMax ( talk) 09:21, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
