The Concept Album page is sorted by decade ostensibly to "show how the trope has evolved over the years", which frankly seems a little self-indulgent, not to mention overly complicated: most of our other Music Tropes are sorted by genre.

This is really frustrating when I make pages for albums (some of which are concept albums) and have to dig through the page to find where to wick the work. I also expect to see some examples turn up twice via the "concept artists" folder. It's a lot easier to sort by artist name.

While we're at it, i noticed that Concept album compares itself to rock opera, implying they are distinct things, while rock opera describes itself as a type of concept album

Yeah, the description could use some tweaks, too.

  • I have a problem deciding about genres, so genre folders are not my weapon of choice.
  • Sorting by artist would mean removing the folder structure and using bullet points since a folder for each artist is overkill. It's a viable option though.
