NEW!
[edit]I have removed the "NEW!" form seveal titels. IF this is wrong please replace them, nad categorise under N. Rich Farmbrough 08:24, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
ALPHABETICAL OR CHRONOLOGICAL ?
[edit]Wouldn't it be more informative if the discography had been chronological rather than alphabetical?
Recent additions
[edit]I think most of the recent additions are good and balance out the article. The only addition I don't like is the Google Trends results - they are biased towards countries with good internet access and using them to make any conclusions violates Wikipedia's [[WP:NOR|no original research] policy. Therefore, I'll remove them - but apart from that, good work! Graham87 04:28, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
Trivia
[edit]Clayderman appears on an advert of Renault Megane GT. What I don't know is if this ad is only shown in Spain. The advert sings a song with the melody of "Never Ending Story" and says "cylists that distract and Richard Clayderman in the piano without control".--Nauki 12:56, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
- Can anyone identify a couple of pieces on [1] on approximately 27:00 and 39:00 min. of this Richard Clayderman's compilation? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tigerjojo98 (talk • contribs) 16:20, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
Removed sections from this talk page
[edit]I have removed all opinion from this talk page that is not related to the article per talk page guidelines, and some of it per the biography of living people policy because it was very strongly worded. This talk page is for improving the article, not for opinions about the subject. The opinionated messages can be found in the page history. Graham87 00:06, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
Bill Bailey
[edit]I rather think that Bill Bailey's song "Richard Clayderman Plays Three Blind Mice" is a spoof of his style, rather than an actual arrangement by Richard Clayderman. Particularly as "Tom Waits Plays Three Blind Mice" and "Phillip Glass Plays Pop Goes The Weasel" are on the same album. Halften 12:45, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
WikiProject class rating

Please remove the album Tomas Turbando Pinto
[edit]First of all: forgive me for any error in my writing, I'm brazilian. Some days ago I removed the "album" Tomas Turbando Pinto from Richard's discography. I expected that a revisor, after seeing my edition, would do a simple research to verify that "Tomas..." it's not a Richard's album. But the worst part is Tomas Turbando Pinto is an example of something in Brazil we call "cacofonia" or "cacófato" (I think the word in English is "pun", but I'm not sure): in Portuguese the phrase ambiguously refers to masturbation. I did read plenty of years ago about some aspects of Wikipedia maintenance, so I have an idea that the better option to correct it (and other wrong things I see in my "rides" around Portuguese and English Wikipedia versions) is to create an account. But I tried once and my account was taken down due to inactivity, since I'm an occasional contributor. With this in mind, I prefer to keep it anonymously. It's sad to see Richard's name associated with this unfunny joke in so many sites, all of them thanks to this article, so please remove it from the page. Thanks in advance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 177.1.255.231 (talk) 04:34, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
No information on name change?
[edit]It seems prominently missing since the article mentions that the artist was born by the name Phillippe Pagès, but does not explain when and why he changed to his clearly un-French sounding name. Corwin.amber (talk) 11:32, 22 October 2017 (UTC)

Guinness and record sales
[edit]Mr. Clayderman doesn't appear on the Guinness World Records website nor does he appear on the List of best-selling music artists here on Wikipedia (there's actually a link to that page under "See also"), which makes the claim of 150 million sold units doubtful.2A01:C22:AC08:BF00:4961:C6E9:1876:6621 (talk) 19:10, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
