Following the inclusion of a Gwen Stefani song Cool as todays featured article, which Frank album do people feel should be nominated for featured article status?Gareth E Kegg 00:29, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

I would say none of them have enough information in them to be considered yet. That song entry has an AMAZING amount of information in it, much more than any Frank ALBUM article. I think we all have some work to do before any can be considered. Williamnilly 04:26, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] his finest collection

I have a sinatra 2 disc cd called frank sinatra his finest collection. Is it mentioned here?

It sunds like a compilation album, and as such is not listed in the discography, or the list would be endless! The songs from your album were released before on other albums :) Gareth E Kegg 14:26, 12 December 2006 (UTC)


Can someone please add release dates to all these singles and albums listed? 21 January 2007 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.12.87.94 (talk) 20:49, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Discography

Why not title the article 'Frank Sinatra discography', instead of the overly long 'Chronological list of singles and albums recorded by Frank Sinatra'? To me, it seems like the two names mean the same thing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by KearF (talkcontribs) 13:17, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

I believe the article should be moved to Frank Sinatra discography based on overwhelming precedence and widely-accepted naming conventions. Discographies are chronological by nature, so having such a long title is unnecessary. Drewcifer (talk) 09:56, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Fine with me. Powers T 11:49, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Problem: What are the criteria for inclusion?

Discographies of artists like, say, Gwen Stefani are easy because a) they haven't been around very long, and b) pop stars record far, far less material today than they did fifty years ago. Frank Sinatra's full discography is, without the slightest bit of hyperbole, HUGE, and fills an entire book that is 640 pages long. Even abbreviated discographies, like the one in Friedwald's Sinatra! The Song is You runs to nearly a hundred pages if I remember correctly. Realistically speaking, I think we need to stake out some criteria for what does, and does not, merit inclusion in this article. Ford MF (talk) 22:22, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
