Merge into Soundtrack?

I haven't looked closely, but the two articles seem to be talking about almost exactly the same thing. --DocumentN (talk) 09:25, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's true, the newer article practically duplicates the earlier one in some sections. AlbertSM (talk) 02:07, 31 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Indenting paragraphs

Please do not indent paragraphs on Wikipedia articles. It causes the typeface to change and the whole article to be thrown out-of-whack. AlbertSM (talk) 02:04, 31 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Most-streamed soundtracks

This this section somewhat dubious, for a number of reasons.

  • it is complied from a number of different sources that count their figures in different ways, so the numbers are hardly comparable.
  • it includes numbers for individual tracks, not albums, which is the article's subject. And again, it is comparing view/play counts for individual tracks, against streaming for entire albums.
  • some of the totals appear to be combining individual track's figures to create a grand total. Sometimes even from different sources. Making the total again something different.
  • it doesn't include all steaming services, just those that the Wikipedia editor has thought to look at.
  • there is no indication that all possible soundtracks have been included. For instance, where is Frozen's 1.6 billion views on youtube alone?

Basically the numbers are meaningless, comparing them is meaningless, making the section meaningless. I appreciate the editor's good intentions, but this is suspiciously like original research. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 18:17, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
