Japanese title[edit]

Not sure if this is relevant or not, but for some reason, the album's title in Japan was/is "Savior of Aurora." Perhaps a trivia section could be added to the article? Kouban 19:10, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

^^^ Genuinely interesting.

Further research reveals that the same title was given to the song "Livin' Thing." I wonder if there's anything online explaining the reason for the retitling. Kouban 13:55, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Images in chronology[edit]

I believe using (even small) images of prior and following albums in the chronology of the album page violates fair use.--Fantailfan 01:15, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is the first album in the Wiki series to number the tracks on side two starting over from 1, which is continued for a few albums and then goes back to CD-style numbering with Time. Just to be extra nitpicky, I note that some entries indicate where side two began on the LP and others don't. Certainly neither affects readability, and is only noticeable when you're looking for that exact information (which I am probably the only person who ever will).

Merger proposal[edit]

Song now merged per consensus here.

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

It's in the wrong place, but the note on "Surrender (Electric Light Orchestra song)" correctly states that the supposed chart position is fabricated and the single never charted. Given that the song is therefore a 30-year-old track added as a bonus to the CD reissue of this album, and that the single has no chart history of its own, I suggest the little information about it could easily be merged into the article about the parent album.

Agreed. It may have been available as a special edition single, and download, but no evidence it charted. Merge it. --Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 20:49, 15 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Collaboration on this article[edit]

Hi. Just a few things that would help everyone collaborate on making this a better article and Wikipedia a nicer place to be.

Please use edit summaries, however brief. It helps others understand what you are doing and avoids misunderstandings.
Assume good faith. Do not refer to other editors' edits as "vandalism", just because you do not agree with them. This is not vandalism.
Goes without saying, but whatever; don't edit war. Discuss edits here if they're reverted.

Thanks. --Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 12:34, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
