terrible[edit]

Entire page reads like a press release. Awful. SlamBurger (talk) 03:22, 17 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Reception Section[edit]

This is an encyclopedia not a list of quotes from record reviewers. The current format which contains a list of quotes is not appropriate in my opinion and violates WP:QUOTE as well as WP:MOS.--—Keithbob • Talk • 19:47, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Changes to Format[edit]

I have made a number of changes to the format of the article as Wikipedia guidelines prefer prose over lists of awards and lists of quotes by reviewers.--—Keithbob • Talk • 21:02, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

For more info see WP:QUOTE, WP:MOS AND WP:EL. Click here for info on lists [1].

Removed Photo[edit]

I have removed this photo as the subject of the article is pictured appears only in the background and it is redundant as there is already a photo in the article of the subject at a live performance.

WP:PHOTO requires that photos fit within a relevant section of the article. I can't seem to fit this one in because the Info Box is so big. Maybe later when the article gets bigger we can add it back in. Image:Anais Mitchell Donegal.jpg|left|thumb|100px|Mitchell at the Balor Arts Centre Ballybofey

Xoa?[edit]

Why is xoa listed as a compilation album? My understanding that it is a different recordings of songs previously released and some new tunes? Isn't a compilation traditionally previously released music compiled into a new collection? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 169.252.4.22 (talk) 18:59, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Xoa again[edit]

Anyone care to share an opinion of why they consider xoa a compilation album? It is new versions of old songs and unreleased songs, all from the same recording session. Artists often record multiple versions of songs; that does not make the albums on which they appear all “compilation albums.” — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.175.246.76 (talk) 18:56, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
