Talk:Croatia Records
Don't lie about people, Thompson and Bulic are no longer by Croatia records, ans Mister Skoro is not a nationalist. Wikipedia is a Encyclopedia not a propaganda site.
What do you mean by "Thompson and Bulic are no longer by Croatia Records"? Do you mean they no longer use the record label? Where can this information be verified? Even if they don't use the record label anymore, it is still notable to mention them in the article as there was a time when they used it, and no matter what happens in the future, nothing will change that.
I'm sorry to say, but Miroslav Skoro is a nationalist. Looking up the definition of nationalist on dictionary.com returned the following results:
- Devotion to the interests or culture of one's nation.
- The belief that nations will benefit from acting independently rather than collectively, emphasizing national rather than international goals.
- Aspirations for national independence in a country under foreign domination.
... now by reading through those definitions, can you honestly say Miroslav Skoro does not promote such things in his music? Holding such views is called right-wing, therefore that is what is stated in the article. I don't see what the problem is?
Thank you for resorting to the proper procedures to settle your concerns. –220.245.178.133 09:11, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
If somebody is singing about his homeland he is a nationalist, strange because then there are a lot of nationalists on the world. And one of Miroslav Skoro best friend is a serb strange.
--- I am astonished by this "article", better to say defamation. This is not an article on Jugoton or Croatia Records, just someone taking their frustrations out. There are no relevant data on the company nor music, just 3rd grade tabloid press accusations and smalltalk. PLEASE WRITE THE REAL ARTICE OR DELETE THIS!
- Feel free to improve this article. --Dijxtra 14:32, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
Stulic royalties claims
I've removed that passage about Stulic's recompensation claims again. The whole of it was poorly sourced; the notability of that whole issue was never demonstrated (a single interview where some newspaper gave the guy the opportunity to express his claims? It's not even gone before a court?), and even if it was borderline notable, there'd be hardly grounds for more than a single sentence. Moreover, the passage was poorly written. If people must have the issue covered, a simple, single sentence is sufficient: "Croatia Records has been the object of a controversy raised by singer X over royalty rights to songs by band Y from the 1980s. X has named a sum of Z Euros which he claims the company owes him." Why treat this more deeply at all? But I'd say it should only be covered if it has been the subject of widespread media coverage, with independent analyses published by reliable media outlets (not just an interview in which on of the parties expresses his own claims, as the present source seems to be.) Disclaimer: I can't read sources in Croatian. Fut.Perf. ☼ 21:59, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- This information is not only sourced, it is well known by almost every single person in Croatia and former Yugoslavia. I can dig up 100 interviews if you would like showing this exact information. Hell, Croatia Records will even tell you what they pay him and that they believe they have rights to his work. I would think the actual author would know what rights he sold rather than a for profit corporation. --64.46.2.216 (talk) 08:58, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
