That should be a good start. I highly recommend taking a look at [[MOS:DISCOG]] for some help, as well as other discographies that have already passed FLC. Let me know if you need some more help or some more ideas on what to work on. [[User:Drewcifer3000|Drewcifer]] ([[User talk:Drewcifer3000|talk]]) 09:06, 10 August 2009 (UTC) |

Hello there! What's up? :) How's the Madonna project coming along? Anyone else helping you out? :) I apologize for not being able to help out with the Madonna articles; as I told you recently, life has been so hectic for me... no fun at all. However, I am so happy to see the incredible amount of work you have done. It's great to see such talented artists finally get great looking articles! So, what is going on in your life? I hope all is well!

Madonna singles discog
Well, the good news is that most of the data you would need is already there, and most of it is pretty well-referenced. The bad news is that stylistically, it's a bit of a mess at the moment. And with lists such as discographies that are so data-heavy, style is really half the battle. For now I'd rather avoid going through a point-by-point critique of the list, but here's a few of the more labor-intensive suggestions I have, so that if you want to get started on that you can.
- The chart positions need to be re-ordered, per MOS:DISCOG. That's gonna be a huge annoying task right there, I don't envy you.
- The sum totals at the end of the singles table seems a little celebratory to me. 4 seperate rows seems a little too much for me. Personally I'd go with just two (#1 and Top 10), but that's just me. There's no consensus on this exactly, so I'll let you be the judge of that. But the empty cells on either side should ideally be removed. Take a look at what I did for the first table in Sonic Youth discography for an example of something that would be good.
- The "Promotional singles" table needs to be reformatted a bunch, ideally as closely as possible to the other singles chart. I think you could scrap the Cat. No. column completely.
- The last couple sections should ideally be table-ized as well. Cut out the prose, boil things down to their essentials.
- B-sides are typically not included in discographies.
That should be a good start. I highly recommend taking a look at MOS:DISCOG for some help, as well as other discographies that have already passed FLC. Let me know if you need some more help or some more ideas on what to work on. Drewcifer (talk) 09:06, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
