Spectral Voices: http://www.spectralvoices.com/review.htm should be https://www.spectralvoices.com/jim-cole-spectral-voices/  ... also, is this "Spectral Voices" or is it "Jim Cole and Spectral Voices?"  The information on the site seems to point to the latter.  Maybe the artist changed the project's name, but there doesn't seem to be any record of the former name on the site.  ('''I'll change to the new link''')

Soundwell (Anders Erkéus): https://soundwell.com/music-e.htm link seems to be to a product no longer listed at that site, likely a musical instrument, rather than a sound sample.  This person does have a soundcloud account, though: https://soundcloud.com/soundwell ('''I'm going to change that''')

1. What about compilations containing xen and non-xen music?  I think that having non-xen compilations would defeat the purpose of having such a list, which is to allow newcomers to access a bunch of xen music quickly.

2. How many different artists constitutes a "compilation album?"  If I recorded three of my own songs and had another artist record three songs, and then threw them all together, is that a compilation?

EDIT (24 April 2019) - I guess those questions aren't going to be answered anytime soon.  I'd like to go ahead and migrate compilations over to another table.  I won't be offended if anyone reverses those changes.

== Why is this page categorized as a template? ==
This page is showing up incorrectly under [[:Category:Templates]] for some reason (look under "L" for Listen). The page source doesn't include a categorization tag indicating it's a template, so something indirect must be putting it there. Perhaps someone more familiar with how this wiki has been set up will know what's doing this and fix it, please.

: Some templates' configuration of category inclusion was wrong. Fixed now. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 15:59, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
