Peer review December 2016
Your edits look great! You're writing is very clear and you have a lot of great information to add. Everything you add is very factual and neutral, so I don't think you'll have any hang ups with biases. Your sources are also really great, so props on that! The organization looks concise and clear, but I might add a picture if I were you. Like maybe a picture of the playbill in the box on the right if you can find one? The only other thing I can think of is adding some citations to the intro to show a source that explains the play is an adaptation and its running time - I'm sure one of your sources have that information already. I'm not sure if you're supposed to add citations in a synopsis since it's just a summary of the main text, but if you do, consider adding a citation there. Other than that, I think it looks great! Best of luck! Lilypad96 (talk) 05:07, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
Merger Proposal
- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
- Following my closure of the WP:RM discussion at Talk:Hadestown_cast_recordings (which overlapped this proposal), I am closing this merge proposal as Not merged (non-admin closure) Iffy★Chat -- 01:03, 16 February 2020 (UTC)]
- Following my closure of the
I propose merging
- Support as suggested, the cast recordings article has very much similar information as the main article. - SanAnMan (talk) 17:02, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose, not unusual for a separate article relating to cast albums of musicals, and this lists in some details the original live album in addition to the original broadway cast recording. What I do note however is there is little in the way of naming conventions for articles such as this Category:Cast_recordingsMark E (talk) 13:14, 20 September 2019 (UTC
- Oppose: It makes sense to distinguish the production from the album, which has chart appearances, etc. that are important but which should not be here. —Shrinkydinks (talk) 08:52, 14 December 2019 (UTC)
Requested move 15 December 2019
- The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
Moved as proposed, with the caveat that the concept album is moved to Hadestown (album). BD2412 T 03:55, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
- Hadestown (musical) → Hadestown
- Hadestown → Hadestown (concept album)
– Hadestown started out as a musical, and the musical has eclipsed the concept album in coverage and interest. Since December 2018, the musical page has gotten 1,823,080 views, vs. just 125,716 for the album.* The musical article has over twice the number of references, and searching for "Hadestown" on Google News returns a mountain of stories about the stage musical, not the album.

- Support per nomination. The musical is indeed the ]
- Support. Hyperbolick (talk) 19:40, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
- Support per nom/pageviews. Colin M (talk) 01:54, 17 December 2019 (UTC)
- Also, I'm equally supportive of Hadestown (concept album) or Gagaluv1's suggestion below of Hadestown (album). Colin M (talk) 17:44, 17 December 2019 (UTC)]

- Support per nom, however I do think it would make more sense for it to be changed to Hadestown (album)Gagaluv1 (talk) 02:53, 17 December 2019 (UTC)
- No objection. I went with the more precise but less concise "concept album" to distinguish it from the cast albums, but I see that the Jesus Christ Superstar concept album is titled Jesus Christ Superstar (album), even though we also have articles for JCST cast recordings (1, 2). WanderingWanda (talk) 15:25, 17 December 2019 (UTC)]
- Yeah, plus any confusion can be avoided with a "not to be confused with" note at the top of the page.Gagaluv1 (talk) 15:34, 17 December 2019 (UTC)
- Hadestown (cast recording) is currently badly titled IMO, since the article is currently describing two different albums. It should either be moved to a descriptive title like Cast recordings of Hadestown or split into two articles: Hadestown: The Myth. The Musical., and Hadestown (Original Broadway Cast Recording).

- Would support Hadestown (2019 cast album) are also Hadestown albums. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 07:07, 18 December 2019 (UTC)]
- I don't feel strongly but I'm a mergist at heart so I'd go with one article. I'd name it Hadestown cast recordings. Note that this is slightly more concise than Cast recordings of Hadestown. As for "cast albums" vs. "cast recordings": Cast recording is the phrase used in the aforementioned article and on the Hadestown cast albums themselves. WanderingWanda (talk) 18:37, 18 December 2019 (UTC)
- Would support
- Support Hadestown (musical) → Hadestown (2019 cast album) do not exist, etc.). When/if that day comes, this can be revisited. Steel1943 (talk) 18:02, 30 December 2019 (UTC)]
- Hadestown (cast recording) which does exist and is an album, or rather two albums, therefore a move of Hadestown → Hadestown (album) would indeed represent incomplete disambiguation. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 19:31, 30 December 2019 (UTC)]
