Missing Music Videos
editThe song "Seasick yet still docked" has an offical music video (Morrissey is in it and clearly singing the words) but is missing from this table. I don't know who directed it or what year but it should be included. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.92.59.246 (talk) 01:31, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
Singles table
editPer comment text already present:
- note: the use of a table for this sort of data is not really very accessible, therefore i am removing the links from the table as i create their pages. if you disagree with this for some reason please comment on the discussion page before changing it back to the table
Sorry I didn't wait, but I don't understand the logic behind this. How is it not "accessible"? It looks rather messy to have the singles listed as half-bullet-list-half-table. Putting wikilinks into a table isn't unusual, if that's what the problem is. There are tons of artist pages in wikipedia with tables set up exactly like this, so how is there a problem? I'm happy to put links here to other artists, if anyone really needs to see them. -- eo 01:11, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
- It makes it hard for disabled people to read and access the information. There is completely no reason whatsoever to have the information in a table. SaltyWater 10:44, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
- Actually, I feel there is a reason. By taking it out of a table you're actually removing information. It also looks more appealing to have it arranged into a table. As most discographies in Wikipedia are arranged in tables (very similar to this), I think it makes most sense to keep it as it is and use the Talk Page to discuss changing it to a text list first; not the other way around. As far as the disabled people part is concerned - if a table makes the info difficult to access, then there are a lot of discography pages that will have to be changed and I suggest contributing to the discussions at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (lists of works) or Wikipedia:WikiProject Music/Tables for charts instead of just removing table information from articles before discussing with editors. In the meantime, leaving the list half changed looks really sloppy. Either have the table there or not. -- eo 13:35, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Compilation with Morrissey's influences
editI remember an album with Morrissey's favourite songs. On it were songs from Klaus Nomi and the New York dolls. The earnings were donated, I think, to animal liberation. Does anybody now and does it belong to this article? 87.123.95.241 15:45, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
YATQ at number 1
editThe highest chart position for you are the quarry was number 1.
- Not correct, it debuted at number two; I've reverted your edit. -- eo 15:15, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
All You Need Is Me
editWhy has this song been listed as a single? It's only been played recently live, and no announcements have been made as to its release or whether it'll be for any particular album. Given Morrissey's fondness for playing his B-sides live, perhaps it would be better not to jump to conclusions and wait until something officially's said? (Unless it has and I'm just being dim, of course ;-) ) - Oberonfoxie 02:09, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

German chart positions
editDear authors, since Germany is the 4th largest record selling market worldwide ([1]) I'd like to ask anyone to add the German chart positions here. For Morrissey you'll find them at [2]. Thanks a lot --192.109.50.233 (talk) 19:45, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
