Genres: rock. Just rock? It's so much more diverse than that[edit]
People will fill one album with various genres and just describe this as "rock?" It says rock, pop and blues in the 2nd paragraph. It should at least be labeled appropriately according to this because rock, pop and blues all fit the album description perfectly. Although there are hints of psychedelia and art rock they don't have to be added, but it's confusing to me how something like Piper at the Gates of Dawn has maybe 2 songs that could fall under space rock but that will also be included under the genres.

- It's unclear what your point is. Are you suggesting an edit? If so, it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format. Sundayclose (talk) 20:25, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
- I say in the 2nd paragraph that it's described as rock, pop and blues, so yeah I think these should be under the genres. Although it's all rock technically, it's more diverse than that and is the only Beatles album listed with a term this vague. Even let it be has blues under the genres at least. I'm not really sure how my point or changes desired to be made are unclear, to categorize it as it's described: rock, pop and blues. BrianVL (talk) 21:26, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
- Again, unclear. Where do you want the changes? Again, describe the specific changes in a "change X to Y". If reliable sources for the changes are not already in the article, please provide them. Sundayclose (talk) 22:04, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
- Unclear?! Yeah... I'm done lol. Not that big a deal at the end of the day but I'm mind boggled that you'd find anything I say unclear BrianVL (talk) 03:58, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Brian. I think he wanted you to say you want to add different genres in the infobox; I'm not sure why Sunny decided to not be clear on that. If we have reliable sources that state the album has different genres than just rock I'm totally fine with adding more genres. – zmbro (talk) (cont) 13:50, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

- The infobox should tell the reader the overall album genre(s) as described by WP:Reliable sources. The album has some blues in the song "I Want You" but this is not an overall album genre. I doubt there are any sources describing the entire album as blues. On the other hand, I bet we can find several publications saying it is a pop album, so I wouldn't stop anyone from adding pop to the infobox.
- Infobox genres for albums should not be a catch-all listing of song genres, so that every song genre is represented. Instead, it should represent to the reader what observers are saying about the album as a whole. All of those song genres can be described in the body of the article.
