Talk:Dead or Alive discography

Would someone please erase the page?

Hi! I have allowed myself to remove the contents previously stored in this page, and move them to "Dead or Alive (band)" main page. I don't know if it's the case to leave this page of the sole discography here, even because no link anymore exists now re-directing towards it. So, what about erasing it completely? I cannot do it, and I do not even know if I may, but even in this case, I literally wouldn't know how to do it, so, would someone please cancel this page? Thanks a lot. --TTZnju 19:52, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

I've restored the page anyway - there was no reason to remove its contents in the first place. If you're going to make a huge, sweeping change like this to either the main DoA article or their discography, please discuss it on Talk Pages first. - eo 19:54, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

I'm really sorry. I didn't think I couldn't do that. But I knew that there's a certain policy encouraging the union of pages dealing with the same, or very similar things, that's why I did. Promising that I shall always discuss about these huge changes before making them in the future, could I please know why two pages should exist, when usually a discography is set within the page itself of the related artist or band? Thank you and sorry again... --TTZnju 12:32, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

P.S. By the way, I swept the change coming from the creation ex novo of Dead or Alive page in the Italian Wikipedia, where I consistently made up a one page, both including the history/biography paragraphs and sub-paragraphs, and the template discography of the band. I'd like to know the reason for the separation of the two pages in the English version, not for a matter of empty, useless, unpolite criticism, but just because I would really like to do a good, professional job, and if I get to understand the motives that pushed either the first or the main editor, or whomever else to do so, I might ultimately do a better job, I think... Thanks a lot for your attention and, please, do let me know soon... --TTZnju 13:02, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

No need for apologies, many, many music artists have their discographies separated simply because their main articles are starting to get too long.... if you click on the "Category:Discographies" link at the bottom of the page you'll see really how many artists have a discography page.... seems to make sense for bands who have a good number of albums and singles to their credit. Those tables take up a lot of text! - eo 14:03, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Japanese charts

The unsourced statement I removed was lacking a verifiability. According to the official site of the Oricon, the Western rock group with the most number-one is Bon Jovi, who have ever topped the chart 5 times.[1]Here is the list of the albums that were recorded by Western artists and reached number-one on the Japan's Oricon charts. (Where is the album by Dead or Alive? When did they gain such a striking success?) [2] Their chart trajectories and informations about sales figure in Japan are indicated in the following searched data on the Google.[3] --- Fugreena (talk • contribs) 16:05, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
