Talk:Far East Movement

Untitled

Aren't the sources for this article that I noted reliable? Far East Movement has been a notable music group that can be heard all over the radio now with their current single "Girls On The Dance Floor."

Move?

The following is a closed discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was Move to Far East Movement Parsecboy (talk) 00:04, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

• Far east movement → Far*East Movement — proper name for this group — Andrewlp1991 (talk) 21:38, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
• Or to Far East Movement? See WP:MOSTM about the * character. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 23:31, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
• Support Anthony's suggestion, Oppose Andrew's. The "*" one would violate MOS:TM. TJ Spyke 00:22, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
• Oppose move to Far*East Movement, but support move to Far East Movement. --DAJF (talk) 01:50, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
• My bad, because that's how the article used to be titled. I stand corrected and wish to omit the asterisk. --Andrewlp1991 (talk) 04:11, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
• Based on their official web site, the first sentence of this article, and their use of the abbreviation FM, it looks like they might be using the star as a hyphen and the name would be Far-east Movement, although other sites do use Far East Movement. Station1 (talk) 07:22, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
• Why is there even a discussion, when the current title is blatantly in violation of traditional style guidelines with the lack of capital letter. --Andrewlp1991 (talk) 23:08, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
• Support move to Far East Movement per everything above. --Pwnage8 (talk) 18:52, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
• Support move to Far-east Movement per everything above along with their personal website. --ducridah750 (talk) 17:23, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

In discography section

Can someone explain the difference between the two subheaders "studio albums" and "studio"? What is "studio"? Are those albums or what? If so, these should be combined. - eo (talk) 20:14, 18 November 2010 (UTC)

FALSE CLAIM

This article purports that FM is the first Asian-American group to break into the iTunes and Billboard Top 10 chart. I don't think this is credible. What about M.I.A.? Jay Sean? Those are Asian-American artists. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.69.117.142 (talk) 15:38, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

It's inaccurate, Kyu Sakamoto hit #1 in the 60s, see Sukiyaki (song). - eo (talk) 15:53, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

Actually, it is accurate. Those are all only singers. Yves (talk) 18:47, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

Haha yo both MIA and Jay Sean are British-Asians. But isn't Fort Minor essentially just Mike Shinoda? Idk if that counts as a group? icelandic hurricane #12_(talk) 02:12, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Heads Up

Just letting everyone know, I accepted a revision that went from unsourced material to unsourced matierial. People from IRC said that was probably the best choice. But please, feel free to change it. You know, all of you page watchers/ stalkers. ;) I'm Flightx52 and I approve this message 19:08, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Girls on the Dance Floor

In the singles section, the album that Girls on the Dance Floor is taken from is shown as only Animal but the track is actually included on both Animal and Free Wired. I don't know how to change it so I'll leave it to someone else! --86.156.145.37 (talk) 14:18, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

Descent

There's nothing about who is from which country.--77.0.111.59 (talk) 02:10, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
