POV in intro

[edit]

Serious POV in the introductory paragraphs. While my own preference wouldn't be for rating the works against each other at all, this is utopian; the site does require citing someone when you do so, however. Schissel | Sound the Note! 11:05, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. The commentary is a bit strong for being uncited. In my opinion, its unnecessary on a list page. Anyhow, that section is entirely the work of a single edit of User:Dono from back in early 2007. That editor is still active on Nielsen articles. We could ask if he'd be interested in toning down the introduction.DavidRF (talk) 16:02, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Schissel | Sound the Note! 21:39, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for taking notes of this list (I think nobody will notice this list at all). I have to admit that when I wrote the introductory paragraph I wasn't aware of the tone, and during the past few years I revisited this list on several occasions and said to myself "man, I should have written it better", though I never attempted a rewrite. Finally someone sees the problem and thank you. Yes, I am happy to rewrite it but I can only do it at least few months later. For now I will remove the paragraphs to avoid the tone and citation problems. Dono (talk) 06:30, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

According to the page view tool accessible on the history page, the list received an average of 12 views per day last month, which is not too bad for a Wikipedia page, I think (don't know for sure). Schissel | Sound the Note! 11:14, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sortable list

[edit]

I will try to make a sortable list of the compositions, to replace the listings by FS and OP. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:55, 8 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
