Talk:Out of Step (EP)

Lack of citations and info

Outside of the links to reviews of the album by AllMusic, Rolling Stone, and SPIN, I'm seeing almost no citations of any information on the page. It'd be good to add more sources for what is claimed in the article. Additionally, there is definitely more information needed about the background and recording of the album. There are plenty of books and documentaries out there about the mid-eighties hardcore scene, particularly in DC, so it's likely not too difficult to find more about the background of this record. What little info there is seems to only laud the impact of the album--which is ok, it's a great album, but it there needs to be more neutrality on the subject.

Fair use rationale for Image:Minor threat out of step.jpg

Image:Minor threat out of step.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

LP or EP?

What's the source for this being a studio album (LP)? Dischord Records, the label itself, (https://dischord.com/release/010/out-of-step) lists this as an EP. MMK229 (talk) 16:25, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

Boldly moving it into a EP per this. I think this is just misconception from the release, as AllMusic calls it an "EP" but its review written years ago calls it their "only official album". It also appears from 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die so I guess there's some reasoning goes to here. 49p (talk) 05:21, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Ok I did some research, I looked into old zines and found a Radio Top 20s from a reviewer in Maximum Rocknroll (dated 1983) calling it an EP. Pitchfork also recently called it an EP

Going closer, i found a older ad from Dischord in 1985, they called it an EP (see down right). Seems like a misconception by many publications, that has been corrected since. If dischord calls it an EP, then I think it should be called an EP.

If anyone wants to argue with the footnote's reasoning, please reply to this.49p (talk) 06:01, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
