Two years, about 15 books, numerous websites, subscriptions, and lots of time later, I have brought all of David Bowie's studio albums to at least GA or FA. This possible topic includes all 26 of his studio albums released between 1967 and 2016, along with a posthumous album, Toy, recorded in 2000, shelved, and finally released late last year. I also brought his two studio albums with the rock band Tin Machine (1988–1992) to GA but I did not include those here as this topic includes just his solo studio albums. Huge thanks to Ian Rose and 87Fan for helping with two of the articles many years ago, and thanks to all the support I've received throughout this project. --– zmbro (talk) (cont) 00:21, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
- Support, all albums are GA or better. Congrats Zim, and good luck on Costello. blueskiesdry… (cloudy contribs…) 13:06, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
- Support I've reviewed some of these, and read most of the others. This is a truly outstanding piece of work from Zmbro and completely deserving of good topic status. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:54, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- Support: Looks like a mountain of excellent work! I've added a draft summary paragraph, which anyone else should feel free to improve on. I'll just note that it seems odd that the text repeatedly says that he released 26 studio albums, while this proposal includes 27 (with Toy); if Toy counts, then probably all the counts should be updated to 27? -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 13:32, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- Blackstar, which came out two days before he died, is definitively considered his final album. Toy is a posthumous release that's still technically a studio album, just an addition since it was recorded entirely in 2000. But Blackstar is without a doubt his final album. – zmbro (talk) (cont) 16:18, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- Support: I reviewed a few of these and have been an avid watcher of many. I have to say, these pages are not just among the best the various music WikiProjects have to offer, but are some of the best on the site as a whole. Tkbrett (✉) 15:20, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
- Support: fantastic content on a really substantial body of music. A complete, well-defined topic with no gaps and an appropriate lead list. Great work! — Bilorv (talk) 20:40, 7 July 2022 (UTC)

CommentsThe usage of Forbes contributors and the Evening Standard is unreliable per WP:RSP, also some sources are cited as publisher sometimes but website on others and articles sometimes never link sources once so be consistent with formatting, fix errors with ref 219 on The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars, add a publisher to ref 111 on Diamond Dogs, refs 62, 67 and 70 on Tonight, refs 94, 97 and 116 on Never Let Me Down, refs 73 and 81 on Black Tie White Noise and ref 15 on Hours. Also, cite Daily News as New York Daily News since there is also a Los Angeles version and fix too many reviews in the box for Black Tie White Noise. Outside of these,congratulations on bringing so many articles together for this GT that consists of very well-written material! --K. Peake 07:53, 10 July 2022 (UTC)
- Just to comment, the citation issue on Ziggy Stardust is an issue with Template:Album chart that the nominator is not in a position to fix. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 14:57, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
- Kyle Peake How's it looking now? And WP:RSP says the evening standard is more reliable than tabloids and the articles I've used it for come across as reliable so I don't see why it couldn't be used. – zmbro (talk) (cont) 13:20, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
