 Not done I have removed the hatnote per WP:NOTAMB. The title Queen (band) is not ambiguous. DuncanHill (talk) 17:16, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that a lot of Queen's discography is considered progressive rock. Should this not be added to the list of genres? 192.249.3.219 (talk) 18:28, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How many reliable sources do you have that support your claim? - FlightTime (open channel) 18:30, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fairly sure Queen is singular, a band, so it's is and not are. 66.96.251.202 (talk) 06:17, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
