Radio Hits

I don't have much of a memory of "Happy Song", "Wire", and "Passion" being "radio hits." Sister had airplay. But the others?--Lindsay (talk) 20:27, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Pseudo headings

Walter Görlitz, care to show me where in MOS:LAYOUT it says that pseudo headings are correct? Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 13:58, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You've conflated two concepts and so, no I cannot.

LAYOUT states that we should avoid short sections (primarily for readability). To have a members section as a level-two heading followed by a handful of level-three headings current members then a handful of previous members, touring musicians and whatever else is simply unnecessary. All that is needed is the level-two heading.

WP:PSEUDOHEAD, on the other hand is about accessibility. Screen readers have a difficult time with false headings that are formatted using a semi colon that are followed by a list, such as in a bullet list of members. The advice there is to simply use bold instead, or if you are going to use the semi-colons, use colons for the list items so they are not rendered as lists.

Care to explain where PSEUDOHEAD states that we should not use bold and instead must use physical level-two headings? Walter Görlitz (talk) 20:58, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, right here: WP:PSEUDOHEAD "Do not make pseudo-headings by abusing semicolon markup (reserved for description lists) and try to avoid using bold markup". Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 03:09, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In this case, use of bold is preferred to unnecessary level-two heading, which is what PSEUDOHEAD is all about. Walter Görlitz (talk) 06:32, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Is it? I don't see that written anywhere. I think that's something you decided based on personal preference. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 13:51, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Think what you like, or go ask at the project. Walter Görlitz (talk) 16:53, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Walter Görlitz There you go again, imposing your version of how you think the article should look without caring about agreeing with other editors. You act like a total dictator. You can't engage in an edit war with someone and then invite them to "discuss it on the talk page", that is disingenuous. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 13:48, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Third opinion The way I read it, this section should be standard level-2 and level-3 headings, not pseudoheadings, and the section content does not seem too short to me. Pyrrho the Skipper (talk) 17:08, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
