Talk:Angel from Montgomery

Redundant mention of versions

I don't understand why the John Denver version need be included in the "Other Recorded Versions" list section when Denver's recording is already mentioned in the text section headed "Other Recorded Versions". I deleted Denver's version from the former with an explanation on November 7 2011 - & a non-logged in editor added it back December 5. Of course it's not a major issue having one version of the song mentioned twice but I am going to delete the Denver version from the list again.--Cherrylimerickey (talk) 20:12, 5 January 2013 (UTC)

Not sure why but there seems to be an issue with versions already mentioned in the article's text being cited in the list: I've recently deleted the double mention of the John Denver version - for the second time - & now the Kristen Stewart version from Out of the Wild has been added to the list despite already being referenced in the text. Again it's not a major issue but as Wikipedia prefers info to be incorporated into an article's text rather than presented in a list format I'd like to encourage editors to check the entire article before adding to the Other Versions list - actually it's always a good idea to read an article carefully before editing it.--Cherrylimerickey (talk) 00:31, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

Many users actually want to check a fact such as how many cover versions and performed by whom. Having it in paragraph style makes it like searching a needle in a haystack full of adjectives and verbs and grammar, when we just want the facts. It's the difference between "Colors used: blue, red, orange." which delivers the facts, and "One color that was used was blue. Some years later a color red, in a crimson hue was also used. In a turn of events, a later use of orange occurred.". Lists don't clog up the information a reader is seeking here. Furthermore... why isn't the cover version by Leslie Spit Tree-o mentioned here? It was a big hit in Canada in the 1990's. 50.46.9.120 (talk) 19:53, 8 August 2024 (UTC)Dude

Published Versions section?

Is this section appropriate for a Wikipedia article? Not saying it's a big deal but as it is preferred that Wikipedia articles be as focused as possible this section does seem to be especially superfluous as it links to an article on a fake book which has no especial relevance to Angel From Montgomery the song rather being simply one of 1200 songs contained therein.--Cherrylimerickey (talk) 00:21, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

Hello fellow wikipedians.

There is a statement that Cameo sings this song. I see no reference for this. Should this be removed? Mediaglyphic (talk) 04:56, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
