→Single? or EP?
:::::::::How does everyone feel about "EP-length single"? Single IS the wrong name, but it was technically marketed as one. Although I'm almost tempted to call it LP-length... [[User:Sheepdean|sheepdean]] [[User_talk:Sheepdean|Try to speak as clearly as you can]] 05:55, 21 July 2010 (PDT)
::::::::::You're the boss, Sheepdean, but say honestly where do you find the need to invent a special name for a release which is clearly Maxi-single, no more, no less [[User:BenAkenobi|BenAkenobi]] 06:23, 21 July 2010 (PDT)
:::::::::::It's not a maxi-single, by definition. Basically, interscope misnamed this release, and/or made it too long. I guess we could just call it a single, it is one officially, but I just think it needs more definition due to length and original tracks. If there's a consensus for one name over another, I say we go for that, if no one can agree, we leave as is [[User:Sheepdean|sheepdean]] [[User_talk:Sheepdean|Try to speak as clearly as you can]] 06:48, 21 July 2010 (PDT)
::::bringing it back over to this side, because we need to XD
::::my only other suggestion, Sheepy dear, is to call it a compilation. really, that's the most accurate term, because it IS a compilation of UK pt 1 and 2 (although i can't find release dates for the two UK singles for the life of me, so i dunno if they came out before the US version or not), and same goes for the MOTP US EP. it saves from the bitter, bloody battle over EP/maxi-/single classification, at least. - [[User:Seasonsinthesky|seasonsinthesky]] 14:03, 21 July 2010 (PDT)
:::::I like your idea maybe we can do this: create an article for the UK releases pt1 pt2 (both on the same page), call them singles and add something like "both singles were compiled into one release called Closer to God" (and a link to this page) also add a disambiguation page for the search term "Closer" The Song, The UK Single. ??

::::::I think it's fine without extra page after i swapped the order in which versions are listed in article [[User:BenAkenobi|BenAkenobi]] 23:25, 21 July 2010 (PDT)
:::::::Heh, I can live with that. *waits four months until someone asks why it's a remix compilation* [[User:Sheepdean|sheepdean]] [[User_talk:Sheepdean|Try to speak as clearly as you can]] 06:31, 22 July 2010 (PDT)
