Talk:Foster the People discography

Broken Jaw

I don't think this should be listed in singles, it wasn't shipped to radio for commercial airplay, it was only released as a 45 with "Ruby" for Record Store Day this year. NYSMtalk page 16:04, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

That still makes it a single dude. Or at least a promo single. Regardless, its part of the official discography so it should be listed somewhere on this page. Mrmoustache14 (talk) 06:42, 15 March 2014 (UTC)

Pick U Up EP

As far as I can tell this article seems to be the only place where the "Pick U Up" EP exists. Everything I can find points to all the singles as being non-album singles. Is there a source somewhere pointing to this existing as an actual EP? 2601:600:C700:48F:D95A:B209:C35E:FA69 (talk) 01:25, 22 July 2020 (UTC)

I've removed the two references to this nonexistent EP. 2601:600:C700:48F:65DD:80AA:CBD:1DF8 (talk) 03:36, 25 July 2020 (UTC)

Reverted. Check Spotify, or literally any review of the EP. Rovingrobert (talk) 13:34, 28 July 2020 (UTC)

@Rovingrobert: I checked Spotify and it's there, I guess I missed that. It has no release date, just a year, so I'm not sure where the one in the article came from. However, I can't find "literally any review of the EP" so would you mind sharing? Everything I see refers to Pick U Up as a single, the only thing showing it as an EP is Spotify. I also don't appreciate your comment in the edit summary and the fact that you called my edit vandalism. WP:AGF. 2601:600:C700:48F:257D:6556:83E6:DC6B (talk) 04:50, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

@2601:600:C700:48F:257D:6556:83E6:DC6B: The second result on Google will do: [1]. Not a credible review perhaps, but that link would have directed you to Spotify. It’s a shame the EP was not released more widely — I can’t speak as to why this is the case.

In future, please look to disprove information rather than simply removing it from an article. Thanks! Rovingrobert (talk) 06:20, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

@Rovingrobert: The second result on Google won't do, as that's not a review. Are there any reviews mentioning the EP that you are aware of? I did see that page before, and it has virtually no information so I dismissed it. I did miss the Spotify link on that page, I'll admit that. There is no mention of this as an EP in the press or on social media, it only appears on their Spotify. Everything talking about Pick U Up is talking about the single. It seems far more likely to me that someone running their Spotify just decided to group the singles that had come out at that point under an EP rather than this being an actual release, though of course that's just speculation. I still don't see how this should be included in the article.

It is impossible to prove the nonexistence of something, I'm hardly going to find a source that says this EP doesn't exist. In the absence of any information discussing its existence I didn't think it should be included in the article, and it still doesn't seem appropriate to include.

Further, I'd appreciate some sort of acknowledgement that you went over the line with that edit summary; you were rude with absolutely nothing to justify it. 2601:600:C700:48F:5C19:8227:BE92:87BE (talk) 03:20, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

I made a request for input at WP:3O. 2601:600:C700:48F:CC3B:260C:3477:AC2F (talk) 02:11, 10 August 2020 (UTC)

In future, please look to disprove information rather than simply removing it from an article. Thanks! Not really, see WP:BURDEN. And in this case WP:V. Proving that an EP didn't exist is basically impossible, no? Leijurv (talk) 05:23, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
