Hi! Any update? (CC) Tbhotch^™ 17:58, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

I'm going to need a lot more time than just a week, specially now that my college is back. This nomination was from months ago. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 17:59, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

No problem. I'll extend it to one month at most. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 18:01, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

Please find more substantive contributions to make

Please find more substantive contributions to make than fiddly nonsense like this. If you're not contributing content or hell, introducing consistency to a page, avoid making edits that don't have any reflection in the visual output. I know you're a fan of Coldplay but you don't need to fiddle with the code of their articles in such a meaningless way. The spacing I put there is consistent with the release history section, which funnily enough you haven't bothered with. It makes no sense to have a space before the pipe (|) but not one after. There is also no need at present to make the caption unnecessarily wordier and longer by putting "weekly" in there. Historically, most main national charts around the world are issued weekly. All the chart positions listed on Coldplay's discography are weekly, and there's been no need to point that out in the captions on discographies, so until there is a different type of chart listed (monthly, year-end), there's no need for the additional specification.

no wp:self published source

Per the discussion at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Albums/Archive_46#Piero_Scaruffi_-_Final_Verdict_on_using_him_as_a_source_in_reviews there's a very clear consensus here that Scaruffi is not to be used as a source in music/album articles in any capacity. So please, do not add his opinions anymore. It is a wp:self published source. Since this is a long running dispute, any contributor warned by the situation and who doesn't respect it, would encounter sanctions and could be blocked from editing. Thanks. You've been informed because you used this source here. Woovee (talk) 15:59, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

I was not aware of this. Just removed Scaruffi from "Viva la Vida" as well. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 16:02, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

Michael J. Fox

Why did you remove what I wrote about Michael J. Fox influence on Chris Martin? Have you seen the clip from Glastonbury 6/30? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sufferingsurfer (talk • contribs) 16:50, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

I didn't removed it, I just placed it somewhere else in the section. Press Ctrl + F and type Michael's name to find it. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 16:59, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Phil Harvey (band manager)

This isn't your page. What you "want" doesn't matter if it conflicts with good practice. You are hiding relevant conversations that could lead to the improvement of the page. Please stop. Alyo (chat·edits) 02:16, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

It isn't your page either. Why are you debating so much about a random thread about the member of a band you don't even care about? The last change that I made (0 instead of 2) wouldn't even be archiving the latest thread until next year. And don't worry about improvements, I intend to work on them when I have the time. You can check the page history yourself and see that I'm the only one who actually worried about it. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 02:25, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

I don't know whether you intended this or not, but the changes certainly appeared like an attempt to hide the GAN when it is a very good description of some issues with the article. Frequent archiving on a page like this does not help readers or other editors. Alyo (chat·edits) 19:27, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

Again

Again, as I said here, please find more substantive contributions to make than fiddling with spacing on every Coldplay article to your preferred style. It makes no sense to have a space on one side of the pipe and not the other. It looks like a newbie did the HTML. Please stop introducing this unsightly spacing; it does not need to be this way. Thank you. Ss112 17:49, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

The space after the pipe is unnecessary, HTML should look tidy, not spacey. I will say, however, it's hilarious how you keep suggesting I'm useless on Wikipedia when I created several good, well-sourced pages here. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 18:00, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

Parachutes music video

Just wondering as a question, since you removed my edit, does the Parachutes "music video" not really count as one? Warriorsandcavaliers2015 (talk) 19:00, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

It wasn't published by any official channel from the band, the producers or the label, so we can't even tell if it really is a music video or just part of a documentary or live performance. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 20:57, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

August 2024

Hello. I wanted to let you know that in your recent contributions to Coldplay, you seemed to act as if you were the owner of the page. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to Wikipedia. This means that editors do not own articles, including ones they create, and should respect the work of their fellow contributors. If you create or edit an article, remember that others are free to change its content. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. FMSky (talk) 14:05, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

You're changing a well established consensus without providing proper explanation, seems like you're the one thinking you own the page. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 14:33, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Here's a few sources referring to Coldplay as a rock band:

• "The first of just two Australian shows in Perth solidified Coldplay's status as rock’s most visionary live act". – Rolling Stone Australia
• "British rock band Coldplay threw it back to the year 2000 [...] at Glastonbury Festival with hit song Yellow". – Evening Standard
• "Coldplay Accepts Top Rock Touring Artist Award" – Billboard

And you can see they are branded solely as rock on music magazines like Pitchfork too. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 14:56, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Yes but the infobox also lists pop, so changing it to "pop and rock band" seems more sensible. But if the consensus is rock its ok with me --FMSky (talk) 14:57, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Coldplay's exploration of different genres is already addressed on the Artistry section and a small part of the lead. They still get referred to as a rock band, still enter rock charts, still receive rock radio airplay and still earn rock nominations in major award shows, so the consensus remains correct as it is. I do understand some purists hate the idea, but that is not Wikipedia's problem. GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 15:12, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Oh, and silly of me to forget, but they still release rock music too (i.e. People of the Pride and Coloratura). GustavoCza (talk • contribs) 15:13, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Further to FMSky's original point, this is just a moronic statement. There was nothing wrong with the revert that I made, and I don't edit the article with the sole purpose of opposing your views/edits; even if all of my edits there were contrary to yours or anyone else's, anyone can edit the article (and yes, you do act like you think you own the article). For what it's worth, that was only my second edit there in nearly five months, so stop acting all hard done by. 4TheWynne (talk • contribs) 16:14, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
