I Fought the Law is a cover, but it was also released as an iTunes single [1] [2]
I think this is good enough to qualify putting it in the "singles" section. anyone else?? Aeris gd 07:22, 6 October 2006 (UTC) Oct 5, 2006
Should Jesus of Suburbia be included in the "Famous songs" section? I'm adding it, but should it be there? Trogdor077 01:14, 31 January 2006 (UTC)Trogdor077
What exactly is the criteria for a famous song? Jtrost ( T | C | #) 21:50, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
There's been a lot of color changes around in this template. Can someone give a good reason why there is so much ado about the colors of this particular template? Circeus 23:45, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
They are just session musicians who play with them sometimes. St jimmy 11:34, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
Maybe they could be added as Touring Members. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Starman15317 ( talk • contribs) 01:51, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
I did a famous songs section, but it is songs that are famous to fans, not any old Joe Schmoe. Like St. Jimmy, for instance, or Dominated Love Slave, they are popular among fans but may not be well known among others. I guess it is free for constructive criticism. Notice not all singles are there. -- Therealmikelvee 16:01, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
I added an 'other' section which has The Network, Cigarettes and Valentines and American Idiot: The Motion Picture on it. Thee things tie in with green day, but couldn't be placed anywhere else on the template. Scrumshus 20:16, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
She, J.A.R., Walking Contracdidction, Macy's Day Parade, and Maria are not Green Day singles. They have no Billboard status chronology, but although msuic videos were made for some of them, they were never official singles. Removed.
She, Walking Contradiction, and Macy's Day Parade ARE singles. Please refer to their articles. Orfen 01:09, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
Source?
J.A.R. is a single. It actually reached number one on Billboard. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angus_(1995_film)#Soundtrack
Can we all agree on these colors (or some varitation of them)?
It's sort of American Idiot-ish but still calls back to the Kerplunk, Dookie and nimrod days. Much better than the current "standard" of light blue and light grey. Ṣ₡ЯՄՊՏɧѱᎦ ☎/ ∑
What happened to ALL of the band templates as uniform? That was the idea. — Mac Davis] ( talk) ( Desk| Help me improve)
Mr. Mac Davis, why did you delete J.A.R. and I fought the law and put on Poprocks and Coke under the singles section? Just because Poprocks has a music video on the DVD doesn't make it a single. Anybody else can confirm? Aeris gd 19:45, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
Which category should it be put in: EPs or Compilations/Live? Hello2112 23:28, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
Whoever it is, stop adding the three other EPs. They are SINGLES. And leave the American Idiot EP there. This is seriously getting irritating, and I consider it vandalism. Hello2112 23:22, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
Never have I seen the album years attached on a band template. I have removed them, as it makes it look a little more tidy. -- Reaper X 17:37, 17 February 2007 (UTC) hey i just figured out if you add up the times of every song on the jesus of sururbia single it actually does not qualify to be a single it is actually the length of an ep not a single. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.172.204.68 ( talk) 13:28, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

On the template I was wondering if someone could add an other songs section in the template.Songs like "2000 Lightyears Away" and "Maria". —Preceding unsigned comment added by CAPTAIN234 ( talk • contribs) 01:46, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
I'm guessing Adozenlies97 thought the green was pretty, so it seemed like a perfectly plausible thing to do. I have no clue about policies for this, but I do know the colour is definitely superfluous, and removing the categories - smart move there. Then to top it off, instead of making it an easy one edit revert, he decides to replace the Singles template with this piece of crap as well, so now somoene has to edit dozens of pages to fix it up. Thanks Adozenlies97! You're a real winner. Someone want to pull out AWB? k.i.a.c ( talktome - contribs) 04:56, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
Does anyone else think the 21 Guns Live EP and Last Night on Earth EP should be placed in the EP section rather than live album? I think that EP would be a better classification for them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.43.83.133 ( talk) 17:32, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
I have just noticed that there is a page for the song St. Jimmy. I don't think it was released as a single. Does that mean it should go in related projects? Rock drum ( talk) 08:22, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
Its a song that was nominated for a grammy! it should have its own pg shouldnt it and thus be put into related articles?? as its not a single but its an obviously well regarded song —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thedeanjones01 ( talk • contribs) 07:46, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
Should this be linked to in the singles section? It is mentioned as a single on Green Day's discography There's also some information here. Rock drum ( talk· contribs· guestbook) 18:56, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
I guess this song has been in and out of the 'Singles' and 'Related' sections alot! It is a single, the article says it! It's got a video (but 'Last Ride In' does and that's not a single). Why should it be in the related section? It's a little confusing -- 77.99.231.37 ( talk) 14:38, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
It's clearly listed as a single. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fewfeet ( talk • contribs) 11:00, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
As mentioned quite a few times above, it is a single and has been available for purchase -- http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003M0HVIO. What more proof could you possibly need? It was the only song under "Related articles", and to me, there's no sense to that distinction except clutter. - 68.63.135.63 ( talk) 16:36, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
I recently changed the infobox to look like this, so it's easier to organize the listed singles. But then it was reverted to this, under the reason that it makes the infobox look "bloated". Is there a given rule on how the infobox should look? Because I've seen ones like Template:Avril Lavigne that contain less content yet uses subsections. Could someone just clear that up? Xij29y6 ( talk) —Preceding undated comment added 20:48, 21 November 2010 (UTC).
I've noticed there are quite a few of these songs, and I think that because of the mass of them they deserve their own section. Last of the American Girls (even though I am a supporter that it is a single, Wikipedia doesn't think so), Poprocks and Coke, Macy's Day Parade, Maria, Last Ride In, and Whatsername (and probably some I'm forgetting). Is this a good idea? -- 24.255.37.229 ( talk) 12:28, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
this is The Networks live DVD album it should be included but to where. it should be either put in the related articles or something but it shouldnt be put in by the network since that if for studio albums and the live albums are for green day themselves ??? BlackDragon 20:02, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
OK then lets compromise ill list the things i have added and say why they should be there and then you do the same and say why they shouldnt
This is why i feel they should be added, please do the same and then leave me a little message on my page saying that you left a message here for me if you will so i can get it as soon as possible and dont miss it BlackDragon 00:45, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

This template's initial visibility currently defaults to autocollapse
, meaning that if there is another collapsible item on the page (a
navbox, sidebar, or
table with the collapsible attribute), it is hidden apart from its title bar; if not, it is fully visible.
To change this template's initial visibility, the |state=
parameter may be used:
{{Green Day|state=collapsed}}
will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar.{{Green Day|state=expanded}}
will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.

As the band's discography continues to grow, and more articles are created for individual songs, the singles section kind of makes this template a bit bloated. As a proposed alternative I made a Green Day songs template that covers all of their songs that have articles, and any covers that have their own sections in other articles. There could be some that are missing, but this is at least a start that has enough content for its own template, and would help this one by removing songs, and making it feel less bloated. Before adding it to any other pages though, I wanted to make the proposal to see what the rest of the community thinks. Please answer with Yes, No, or Maybe in any responses. Thank you!
