Untitled (May 2007)[edit]

I stopped in section J for alphabetizing it. Cjpluta 09:12, 2 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Untitled (August 2007)[edit]

I alphabetised up until "M". I wonder if this list shouldn't be split into individuals and groups, or, for individuals, if we shouldn't list them as "Surname, Name"? What thoughts? ~ Biochemza 12:57, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I've completed the alphabetizing. ~ Biochemza 22:07, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Of course, this should be checked, as there's bound to be errors. ~ Biochemza 22:46, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Also, I've changed bands beginning with "The" and "Die" so that it reads Bandname, The or Bandname, Die. ~ Biochemza 13:07, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Someone should go through this page: http://www.sabands.co.za/bands.asp?filter=s (I've done all the other letters, I just got fed up with S) ~ Biochemza 22:55, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notable artists[edit]

Should this list be changed to only include notable artists? -- YiS, Jediwannabe 13:41, 29 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, and also not contain external links as per WP:EL and WP:LIST. I've removed these. Greenman (talk) 23:03, 30 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Can you add Sharon Katz & The Peace Train to this list, please? Her website is sharonkatz.com I'd like to help her get a wikipedia page. That's long overdue. Thanks. Loreal17 (talk) 18:58, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: The musicians must be notable to be included on the list. This normally means already having an article on en.wiki. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 19:06, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

She is notable. Check her website: sharonkatz.com I could use some help in setting up a wikipedia pagge on her. I've had a lot of false starts on this. If you can help, I'd appreciate it. I'm one of her biggest fans.

Ordering and grouping entries in lists such as this one?[edit]

Presumably, there is some Wikipedia convention for how entries in lists such as this one should be ordered and grouped. For example, Valiant Swart appears under S and under V. Thanks. Drackles (talk) 17:32, 7 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Drackles. Groups or stage names by first letter, excluding the or and; rest by surname. It's all rather confused at the moment - I did a few as a sidetrack from something else, but gave up as I don't have time to do the whole lot. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 03:51, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
