Stylus Music
editHello Leschnei
Looking at the articles in your 'Random things to work on' page (see examples above) am I right to guess that you might be an American...or at least not British (or if you are British you are below the age of 35).
The reason why Stylus Music needs to be on the list next to "Stylus Records, a label of Stereophonics" is that its a different company to that of the Welsh (or British/Argentine if you're not up to date) band's label - which some people might say is more of a labels/marketing deal and not a proper record company at all (see Ignition Management).
The reason why there is not much information about Stylus Music, is that it went bankrupt years ago (after the majors muscled in to their marketplace e.g. Polygram TV), most information about it is British and printed (e.g. old copies of Music Week obtained from Woolies in the 1980s*) or on blogs/video upload sites/marketplaces deemed 'unacceptable' (but then again I think a lot of British newspapers like The Sun are not deemed acceptable sources on here). You might not care a bit about Open Top Cars And Girls In T'Shirts, Raiders of the Pop Charts (Note: An article which is within the scope of WikiProject Albums, an attempt at building a useful resource on recordings from a variety of genre) or The Eastenders Singalong Album...but some people do and these type of compilation albums and the labels that released them (plus the acts of buying them from Woolies), were an important part of a many a young British pop fan's life in the 1970s/1980s...and therefore Stylus Music needs to be given equal status to that of Stylus Records (even though Stylus Music should be more worthy of an article on its own than Stylus Records) and included on the search list:

re: Stylus (disambiguation)
editThanks for the information on the talk page. It looks like someone (you?) needs to write an article on Stylus Music. I removed it from Stylus (disambiguation) because, as described above, DAB pages are simply navigation pages; they should link to the articles that contain the information. If a reader clicked on Nigel Wright (record producer), hoping for information on Stylus Records, they would be disappointed. Leschnei (talk) 00:47, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
- The bit about Nigel Wright was directing people to the Top 10 recording act Mirage as that was the first 'band' I could remember having records out on Stylus, when I was reading about Stereophonics and I wasn't intending spending much time on it like I have ended up doing.
- However I will put it back as per the following entry:
- Stylus, Inc., a publisher of Amiga desktop productivity applications
- as this format must be deemed acceptable as it must have been on here for a few years as Stylus Inc on google seems to link to "Stylus.inc - Fashion Soc DCAC: Fashion Society of Delhi College of Arts & Commerce, Delhi University" with no mention of Stylus on the Amiga page [12]
- P.S. If anybody wants to create an article using the information above please do — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.152.238.174 (talk) 13:57, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
- The Stylus Music entry on Stylus (disambiguation) needs to have a link to an existing article that uses the red link (MOS:DABRED). Or Stylus Music could be unlinked and include a link to an existing article that mentions the company (MOS:DABMENTION). A red link by itself will be removed. Leschnei (talk) 23:56, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
- OK done — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.152.238.174 (talk) 17:46, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

Hello Leschnei, I have spent a lot of time researching and adding in the information you requested but as the Stylus, Inc. entry on Stylus (disambiguation) needs to have a link to an existing article that uses the red link (MOS:DABRED) you can deal with it as I do not know anything about computers...
