editWhat about companies owned by the bands themselves? I'm thinking of Apple, Track, Swan Song, etc - Stevehawker 18:50, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
Is this just a list of current independent record labels from the UK, or could the defunct Nuphonic be included?
Note to article editors
editPlease read the following pages WP:NOT#LINK and WP:EL before adding external links to this list. If the label is indeed noteable, then the link would sit on the label's own article page and not here. Lugnuts 09:52, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
Notability
editThis clearly needs to be addressed in this article, too many are not notable at all. Rob Riv (talk) 09:44, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
Having had Fence Records removed (within 24 hours) on the basis of "non-notability, I wonder what criteria are being used? Just1Page (talk) 19:42, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
- Fence Records current doesn't have an article, so therefore notability hasn't been established. Once the article has been created (and it asserts notability), then it can be added. Lugnuts (talk) 07:20, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
Unfortunately people are still adding their own labels in to the mix regardless of notability. If the label is notable enough for inclusion in the list, it should be notable enough for its own article. If it doesn't have its own article, then create one first! Otherwise I and others will continue to delete those additions where notability is not established. Nebuliser (talk) 13:51, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
- Many lists use "enwiki article exists" (no red link) to simplify the maintenance. Generally I like this, it's good enough for software. For record labels I'm less sure, RWG Records exists, also as d:Q60492205, in essence on my say-so (sourced on Wikidata), not (yet) good enough here. OTOH soon (redirect suggested) Coptic Cat might exist, and could be arguably notable here, the "Coptic Cat" label is mentioned on 15 enwiki articles, but nobody bothered to add it on Wikidata so far. –84.46.52.44 (talk) 15:07, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
