I am currently trying to get this article up to GA. It would be very sweet if we could get a death metal article up to this status. Anyone who has reliable sources and information that would be useful to the article, please contribute! Dark Executioner ( talk) 15:50, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
I'm working to change that. This article can succeed if its more than just me doing all the edits and finding sources. And who cares about what you think of the band - this isn't a forum. Keep comments like that to yourself. Either join in and help or leave, don't cause any problems. Thanks, Dark Executioner ( talk) 00:42, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
Talk pages on Wikipedia are not the place to vent your POV. I don't care that you think that there are better death metal bands, Wikipedia isn't the place to say that. I'm not being harsh - I'm merely stating the facts and trying to keep you out of trouble as well. Understand that, dude!
I appreciate any positive contributions you can make to SFU. This GA means a good bit to me b/c it's my very first time trying to get an article up to this status. Thanks, Dark Executioner ( talk) 01:01, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
I just went through the page and did an array of cleanups. From what I can see from this article is a lot of repetition like "saw the release of" for example. It also has a lot of OR which needs sourcing. You also may want to check the Words to Avoid guideline for what words you shouldn't use, such as obviously/obvious for instance. Also, with WP:DATE we don't add the st, nd, rd or th at the end of dates (although I am unaware of a time when you can). With WP:CONTEXT it is good to link articles that are related to the text or things people may not know a lot about (think international with things). Also the length for it to be a GA-class article is a bit short and the quality of this article I don't think is quite there yet for a "B" article but it's definitely not a stub anymore. I know a few articles that should be reviewed which are B-class and could be Good Article Candidates. − ₪ÇɨгcaғucɨҲ₪ kaiden 06:26, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
As always, your help is appreciated, CircafuciX.
Welcome, I like to help out. :) Well I just got word that Damageplan just became a GA so maybe length isn't as important when I think about it, but flow and sourcing is, etc. I'll find a time that I can look for good sources, otherwise I'm busy with everything else. − ₪ÇɨгcaғucɨҲ₪ kaiden 02:32, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
There are now sixteen sources on this article. If you can find any more, that would be magnificent! Dark Executioner ( talk) 21:47, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
I don't think this is accurate anymore. The page has undergone massive rewrites and improvements since then. I have yet to check, but I think it's approaching B-class, if not there already. Dark Executioner ( talk) 15:49, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
Slayer article: "Blabbermouth.net reviewer Borijov Krgin described the album as "a feeble attempt at incorporating updated elements into the group's sound, the presence of which elevated the band's efforts somewhat and offered hope that Slayer could refrain from endlessly rehashing their previous material for their future output.",[31]"
This one: "The tracks are still crashing and mostly slow-paced, but have less static."
If you notice, none of the opinions in this article are actually attributed to an opinion. Sourced or unsourced, this article is POV ridden. Also, WP:RS needs to be observed - using a Metal-archives.com review as an example of critical opinion is grossly wrong, more specifically as anyone can write a review for them. LuciferMorgan ( talk) 17:22, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
I have run into a minor problem. I would like to keep the album descriptions as informative as possible while keeping the article neutral in tone. It seems as though those five hours I spent finding sources for the descriptions wasn't enough :-( and now I have to maybe cut out some of the stuff I worked so hard on.
To anyone out there reading this, if you would like to help me take out the weasley words like "brutal" then I would gladly appreciate your help. Dark Executioner ( talk) 17:16, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
FYI this article and the article on Bringer of Blood contradict each other with the numbering of studio albums.
I also think that the article would benefit from music samples. I don't know how to put music on Wikipedia though, and the steps that people have given me to help don't really make any sense as I am not a techno-wiz. What would be really good is if we had an original song (like "Doomsday") and a cover song (like "TNT" or "California Uber Alles") sample in the article.
If you know how to put music in the article, then please do so. Thanks, Dark Executioner ( talk) 17:16, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
To Dark Executioner and anyone else who helped him. I am thoroughly impressed. B-class. If this article can be considered B-class, though, I think a lot of other metal articles can be moved up in class. Blizzard Beast $ODIN$ 20:10, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
Thank you! There is still much to be done, and you can help (especially if you know how to put music samples on Wikipedia), but thank you. Dark Executioner ( talk) 16:55, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
The 3 studio tracks found on the Alive or Dead EP are also found on the Japanese Retail of Warpath FYI. 24.68.46.39 ( talk)
Folks, that's uncited text that's being repeatedly removed. If you want to be able to defend it successfully, add a reference.-- SarekOfVulcan ( talk) 16:20, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
I'm editing a couple of things on this page, mainly word choice and sentence construction--but since this article seems to be important to a lot of people I'm being very liberal with explanations of my edits. Thus, you'll see many small ones rather than one big edit marked 'edits throughout.' I hope that makes everyone happy. Drmies ( talk) 20:05, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
Support split - Discography section is becoming lengthy, and should be split to a new article entitled " Six Feet Under discography". Thoughts? -- Jax 0677 ( talk) 23:35, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
Support split - Makes sense, as they have 11 studio albums and quite a bit of miscellaneous items in the discography as well. Would make sense to simply list the studio albums like this and have the discography article listed above that.-- Jacob Hellflames ( talk) 10:13, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
