Jackson had a history of going uncredited (or using pseudonyms) in his productions, often due to the star's contractual complications. Reportedly, Jackson's record label at the time, Epic Records, refused the artist to perform for any of its potential rivals, resorting in Jackson famously appearing under a number of pseudonyms; the most notable example being the 1991 The Simpsons episode Stark Raving Dad, where despite guest-starring as "Michael Jackson", the credit is ultimately given to the fictional "John Jay Smith".[2]

Outline
- Rewrite summary to reframe article with "MJ entered development and this chaos happened" focus, but with an additional explanation that, because of MJ's involvement, we feel it necessary to investigate the non-MJ side of development here as well. This has spent a great deal of time in consideration.
History
- Reorder content chronologically.
- Add or reconsider sections.
- Edit and consolidate.
- Add inline images and quotes.
List of tracks
- Rewrite descriptions.
- Consolidate nearly all "x track was used in y game" descriptions into bottom-most bullet.
List of staff
- Expand descriptions.
- List links to that staff's interviews/statements in bottom-most bullet.
- Replace "Role" table field with "Credited role".
Tables
These tables are getting a bit... chunky. You realise I made a set under "List of music tracks" right? Mine's sortable!
It's better to use the references templates than type out loads of prose about why things come from where. For example, Sonic 3 ending credits need be nothing more than:
ID | Usage | Musicans | Comments |
---|---|---|---|
26 | Credits | Michael Jackson[3] | Similar to Jackson's 1996 single, "Stranger in Moscow"[4]. |

That's a plan. I'd like to contribute in editing the sources for the tables, but until those messages I get of "this-message-is-spam" and "data-submitted-too-often" disappear, I'm stuck relying on others to do the contribution. It's going to require some administrator to whitelist my user name or change the filtering of the MediaWiki setup for Sonic Retro.
