Article content

The article is in need of cleanup. Do not remove the tags until the things tagged wrong are corrected. The article cites no sources whatsoever and external links don't count. The biography section reads poorly and it needs to be cut into sections for easier reading. I'll be keeping an eye on this article.--Leon Sword 01:43, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

look, twat. i cleaned it up once. some schmuck just went and stuck the damn tags right back on. as far as the references, all of the information on there comes from the band's webpage. i would have cited it if i knew how. but i don't, so either you do it for me, or quit your fucking bitching. and as for the biography section "reading poorly" ... if you weren't too busy hunting down typos and trying to critique a perfectly fine article, maybe you would have understood it. but then again, i guess it might be too much to ask that everyone around here stop walking on their knuckles... evolution is a slow process. fact is, before i posted the damn thing, there wasn't shit for an article on the band... which is a shame, they're a great band. thing is: they're not very well known. so... pretty much, if i don't do it, no one will. what is there is what you get. live with it, or redo it your-fucking-self.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.172.93.122 (talk • contribs) 13:22, 22 April 2007 (UTC).

Well, I have been keeping an eye on the article and I have reviewed all your edits and you didn't really clean it up, you just kept removing the cleanup tags without actually fixing much. The reason why I haven't fixed the article myself is because I don't know much about the band so generally that's why cleanup tags are used, so that someone who knows the band well will fix the article without messing it up. I'm not trying to bring down this article or your efforts, I'm a big melodic death metal fan and I would like to see all the melodic death metal band's articles reach at least a B status. If you want me to cite sources for you, then just put a link to the site and I'll cite it correctly or if you want to learn how to do it yourself see WP:CITE or WP:FOOT. I'll eventually get around to copyediting this article, It's just hard because right now I'm working on more than a 100 other articles at once, plus I go to college, relax dude. --Leon Sword 21:41, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

I'm still learning the ropes... so, i tell you what... you take out all the fucking tags, and i'll see to it that it gets the proper attention it needs. i added the citation (even though there's essentially no reason at all... ALL of the information there is from their web page) a few minutes ago, and im going to go through and find grammar errors and such probably tomorrow.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.172.93.122 (talk • contribs) 13:52, 22 April 2007 (UTC).

I went ahead and re-wrote, cleaned up, organized, and formatted the entire article. Please take a look and compare my version with the previous version which you said was perfectly fine, I think you'll be surprised. The article was full of grammar and spelling errors, also the main body was just one long essay and contained too much praise which is not allowed in Misplaced Pages. Oh and theres plenty of reasons why citations are needed in a Misplaced Pages article. Because anyone can edit a Misplaced Pages article any information can be added whether true or not. Citations are proof that we are not just making up the information that is on the article. --Leon Sword 00:37, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

alright, fair enough.... it does look better. but you need to keep in mind that i'm, not a journalist or anything, and no body else was putting any information down for them. I added a little more current information about their next release and new bassist (and cited the articles) on the bottom, and cited the band's webpage, so you can take off the last tag if you like. i'm getting the hang of this shit, so bear with me, else you're gonna find me a real asshole.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.172.93.122 (talk • contribs) 19:38, 22 April 2007 (UTC).

added style section... needs an additional citation - i'm looking for it presently. may need a more experienced editor to look over it, maybe make some changes. i personally think it looks fine, but i've been wrong before. AeturnalNarcosis 14.Aug.2007

what the shit? i spent hours making the chart of their albums for the discography and some twat took it out? that's bullshit. i'm going to remake it... NO ONE TOUCH IT!!! AeturnalNarcosis 2.Nov (by the way, that's a signature)

now, with all the work i've put into it, with LeonSword's help, would anyone agree that is it better than a "start class" page? AeturnalNarcosis 20:43, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Please stop changing things without discussing it here first. I spent alot of time and effort making it the way it is; it's perfect, please don't change it. AeturnalNarcosis (talk) 03:18, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Please read WP:OWN. You don't own an article. Corvus cornix_talk 03:29, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

I do believe i never said i "owned it" ... i do believe, in fact, you're trying to, as they say, 'put words in my mouth.' ...and as for the fair use, give me some time, i'm working on them. AeturnalNarcosis (talk) 03:33, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Please also read WP:CIVIL, calling names is not accepted. Also read WP:FUR. Fair use may be claimed for album covers when used in an article about the album, but not in an article about the band. Corvus cornix_talk 03:30, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Now you lost me. AeturnalNarcosis (talk) 03:33, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Fair use can be claimed for an album cover only for an article about the album. You cannot use an album cover image on an album about the band. Corvus cornix_talk 03:35, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Jesus, how simple are you? that section of the article IS about their albums. AeturnalNarcosis (talk) 03:37, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
