I've been looking for this EP for years... and I still am.

Single debate

edit

It's clear that this release was not a single but an EP. Why should it be listed as a single here?,

Never mind, sorry. Misread. Blackmorningsun 17:01, 4 March 2007 (UTC

OK, I actually own a real copy and two fakes. I know its supposed to be an EP and is well known as that but is there any official proof that it is actually an EP ? And record industry rules are that an EP is 5-8 songs I believe. This has 4.Many Nirvana singles have 4 tracks. It comes in a slimline 'single' case where as EP's usually come in an album 'jewel' case (like Hormoaning does). And is it an album ? no it isn't. Which is it more like, an album or single ? Unless you were told it was an EP, it has all the charachteristics of a single. It doesn't have any charachteristics of an EP let alone an Album. Maybe officially an EP, but here it fits the singles section more than the albums.

In the UK EP's are included in the singles charts, for example Mettalica Garage days revisted EP(6 songs). Some EP's with more songs will be included in the album charts. As in all countries if an EP sells enough to chart it will be included in either the singles OR albums chart but not both. There has never been a chart anywhere for just EPs. Hormoaning was an EP and included in the Japananese albums. In the UK there have been various EP's calssed either as singles or albums. I know "Blew" was released on an underground label but had it been a major release on Geffen and charted it would have been classed as a single with out doubt.

It is classed as an EP because it has 4 songs, and non of those 4 songs are alternate versions of other songs on the same release. See: Extended play. As for charts: EP's with 4 or 5 songs are counted as singles and EP's with 6 or more songs are counted as albums. Either way Blew is an EP.QuintusPetillius (talk) 16:49, 9 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for Image:Blew.jpg

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Tuning

edit

I am pretty certain that Bleach was not totally in standard. Blew itself is whole step down dropped C, and I am pretty sure Negative Creep was Drop D. Dakatsu1993 (talk) 23:23, 25 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Requested move 29 July 2015

edit
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moved. Fairly conclusive evidence that this is the primary topic; and no evidence that "blew" is a common search term on Wikipedia for "Blow" or "blow" or "blow job" or whatnot. (non-admin closure) Alakzi (talk) 23:11, 11 August 2015 (UTC)Reply


Blew (EP)Blew – This is the only most notable (see my comment below in the discussion) topic on Wikipedia by this title. If necessary, a hatnote can be added to the top of the article directing the reader to the disambiguation page Blow, but I don't see that being necessary myself. Steel1943 (talk) 16:57, 29 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Oppose. I disagree. If anything "Blew" should redirect to the Blow page as they are the same thing. I would recommend that it stays as Blew (EP), and if changed to anything at all it should be "Blew (Nirvana song)".QuintusPetillius (talk) 19:02, 29 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
  • Again, the issue is that Blow is a disambiguation page. Of the three entries at the top of the disambiguation page that were somehow declared the co-dominant topics, the only one that "blew" could refer to is Exhalation, but even that's a bit if a stretch since the word "blew" is not in the article.

Primary topic for Blew?

edit

These are all of the uses of Blew on Wikipedia.

Pretty clear winner. --В²C 20:30, 30 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

There's also Blew (surname), which was viewed 27 times in 201506. [5], but yes. Dohn joe (talk) 23:19, 30 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
Ha ha. Yeah, I got the names of the people with surname Blew off that page. Now that we have a dab page for Blew, I think we should fold the contents of Blew (surname) into it under a section called People with surname Blew, or something like that. --В²C 23:26, 30 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
  • No, you missed blow job which is very frequently as a verb is just "blow" and past tense "blew". This is not a dictionary entry, this should be the primary topic, if you have a primary topic. The verb-form usually redirects to the noun form on Wikipedia, and we have the noun form at "blow job" -- 67.70.32.190 (talk) 04:07, 31 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
    • To argue that, you would need to provide evidence in reliable sources that "blew" is commonly used to refer to "blow job". Good luck with that. More practically, who the heck would use "blew" when searching for "blow job"? --В²C 16:17, 31 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
