This live album appears to be semi-legal at best; bootleg at worst. I'm not sure it deserves to be listed in list of official Bowie live albums. Thoughts? 87Fan (talk) 21:38, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Addition of either the "Nine Inch Nails" or "Trent Reznor" page (probably the first is more accurate) to the "Related artists" section. Miguelpinheirokrip (talk) 02:34, 11 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: Related artists are musicians or bands that are significant and notable to the artist's career, including such things like acts with which the artist has repeatedly collaborated, groups of which he has been a member, etc. A laundry list of everyone David Bowie has ever been associated with is not helpful in the least to the average reader. --ElHef (Meep?) 06:22, 14 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please correct the Link to Bowie's Album Heathen. The correct article's name is "Heathen (album)". --93.195.121.213 (talk) 16:24, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Earthling should be changed to EART HL I NG. Especially since Heroes and Hours are in quotes. Let's take the artist at their word. It could be Eart Hl I Ng if Wikipedia's capitalization extends to templates. The article itself could use some redirects too, if not a move. The album is more often listed as EART HL I NG. 184.63.132.236 (talk) 21:30, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: Pending the outcome of the discussion on Talk:Earthling (album)#Eart hl i ng, since that discussion will get more traffic than a template talk page will. If the discussion there moves in favor of changing the name, it would of course make sense to change it here as well. That said, a redirect does seem reasonable and I'll be creating one shortly.

Edit request - 9th November 2015

[edit]

The Buddha of Suburbia should be considered a 'studio album' rather than a soundtrack. The music on the album bears almost no relationship to the music Bowie composed for the TV mini-series of the same name.

I noticed this in reading that the upcoming Blackstar is being touted as Bowie's '25th studio album', when it is - if The Buddha of Suburbia is indeed to be considered a studio ablum - the 26th. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 14.201.13.83 (talk) 10:36, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I think this page needs a link to David Bowie Narrates Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf. I'm not sure which section it belongs in. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SleepIsTheBrotherOfDeath (talkcontribs) 11:44, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Why is Ice Cube listed in the 'related artists' section? According to Mr Cube's own page, his only connection to Bowie is that he co-remixed one song. If this is considered 'related', then the related artists list should be 500 people long. The request is to have Ice Cube removed from the list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 14.201.13.83 (talk) 15:47, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder, considering that Blackstar is written by its symbol ★, shouldn't the template have it that way, like in the discography? I understand why not the page itself, but what about the template? Timeless Days (talk) 14:41, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The Gouster

[edit]

David Bowie discography wikilinks The Gouster to Who Can I Be Now? (1974–1976)#The Gouster (remastered tracks). Is doing the same in this template contrary to Wikipedia rules? —⁠71.105.198.152 (talk) 06:35, 1 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Iman: wife or widow?

[edit]

Should Iman be described as his widow rather than his wife? I don't know Wikipedia's policy regarding this. —⁠71.105.198.152 (talk) 06:44, 1 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
