Chronology

Can someone tell me why Greatest Hits is included in the infobox chronology and Medium Rare is left out? --Larshei (talk) 19:34, 11 August 2014 (UTC)

I think it would be a lot more easier for people if we went by studio album chronology rather than an overall album chronology. I think a lot of people would only want to go through the studio albums, rather than their entire discography, so Wasting Light is a better album to link to rather than Medium Rare. After all, Wasting Light was their last studio album, and Medium Rare is merely a compilation album. PhilipTerryGraham ⡭ ₪ ·o' ⍦ ࿂ 06:36, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

Yes, this was my doing. I usually just link the main studio albums. If there's some guideline out there that says otherwise, I'll stop doing it, but most of the time people don't contest it... Sergecross73 msg me 13:18, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

Sonic Highways (album) → Sonic Highways – The Sonic Highways album would be more prominent than the TV series and should be listed under the "Sonic Highways" name rather than leave it as a redirect to the page instead. The current hat note on the article will stay, and the TV series will be listed under "Sonic Highways (TV series)" as it currently is. PhilipTerryGraham ⡭ ₪ ·o' ⍦ ࿂ 06:29, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

"Sonic Highways (TV series)" was located at "Sonic Highways" before 11 August -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 05:42, 15 August 2014 (UTC)
• Support the TV series is based on the album, so is a subsidiary property, unlikely to become primary over the source property. -- 65.94.169.222 (talk) 05:42, 15 August 2014 (UTC)

track listing include the city it was recorded in

I'm a Wiki Novice, can someone edit this article to include which city each song belongs to? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.201.235.2 (talk) 21:55, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

Singles

Since due to the modern world of music downloads the definition of what is a single has become increasingly blurred, it is going to be somewhat confusing as which songs to list as singles from this album. What I would suggest is that the four songs that are/will be released before the album is released be listed as singles, with the remaining four not as singles but perhaps as promotional singles. Comments appreciated.QuintusPetillius (talk) 13:07, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

Personnel

I talked to someone on a forum who got the full bundle and looked at the attributed personnel. Previously, Joan Jett was listed as guitar on "I Am a River" here, and Bad Brains was listed as being part of "The Feast and the Famine". The person I talked to said that neither of these people are mentioned anywhere in the notes, as well as the rumor that went around for a while saying that Carrie Underwood would be on the Nashville song, "Congregation". I see that Zac Brown is listed for Congregation, and I Am a River has been fixed to not say Joan Jett. I do not own a copy of the bundle, but somebody who does should correct "The Feast and the Famine". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.81.150.19 (talk) 21:54, 12 November 2014‎

Butch Vig on production

Some information in this interview would be good addition to the composition and production section of this article, particularly 33:38-36:06. --Lapadite (talk) 09:04, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
