I changed my edit summary to "Removed unnecessary addition. Band name already in lead." this time. What I'm removing is the name of the band at the top of the Personnel section. The lead already clearly states this is an Arsonists Get All the Girls album, and since it isn't a split album, having the band name in the Personnel section is redundant and unnecessary, so I'm removing it. Hopefully this clears up any confusion regarding my "cleanup". MrMoustacheMM ( talk) 15:43, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

Hey Gunmetal Angel. There seems to be some confusion over the way this album is presented in MJK's article. You originally removed it per WP:CAPS, which doesn't apply. Most recently you're citing a guideline on trademarks as a reason to change the capitalization of this album. It's not a trademark and album names don't "change tomorrow".

If Category:Metalcore albums is not to be used, why does it exist and why do over one hundred album articles link to it? Instead of bickering over one album linking to this category that should not be used, delete the category. According to WP:ELNO official Myspace links are acceptable external links. Each article is to be treated as an individual article, and it should not be assumed readers either came FROM or will eventually link TO As I Lay Dying (band) for an external link. It contains relevant blogs about The Powerless Rise, as does the band's Myspace. According to WP:EL official websites are "provided to give the reader the opportunity to see what the subject says about itself." Since personal blogs are shunned by WP:RS, they become acceptable external links. Two sentences is not a paragraph. Especially when you are dividing up the information about the duration between albums. It may look sloppy, but that is just one paragraph. Maybe two if the personnel details is expanded upon. You are also introducing the time-sensitive phrase "to be." The Powerless Rise already is the fifth studio album, and the following sentence is already doing a perfect job of letting the reader know the album has yet to be released. It's also an extra thing that will need to be update once the album is released. Fezmar9 ( talk) 04:37, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
Hi. I recently did some changes in the line-up of BTBAM as 24.122.53.126 since I wasn't logged in. I just wanted to know why you reverted it.

I'd be interested to know why you chose to revert the information about Despised Icon's breakup. I presumed that, since Despised Icon itself was making the announcement - both through Facebook, their MySpace blog, and Twitter - it qualified as a primary source and sufficient under WP:SELFPUB. In that sense, I felt my edits were justified. If it's the quality of the edits that you're concerned about, perhaps we can work together on making a more parsimonious version of the announcement.
You could make the argument that, since they're doing one final tour, the breakup has not occurred yet, but the fact that the band has gone out and made a rather serious announcement - I think - qualifies it as information worth including.-- WaltCip ( talk) 22:12, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

Well generally "rock" isn't coined as a genre on Wikipedia for music exceeding the 1970s. Usually it's listed as "alternative rock" for newer rock songs, but if it bugs you I guess change it back. • GunMetal Angel 08:52, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
I participated in the final consensus discussion. If you read the text again, you will see that there was absolutely no consensus to leave the infobox or article text describing only, or primarily, NDH. German editors or NDH-fans (often IPs) insist on editing NDH-labelled bands to promote the NDH label, even though the English media does not describe bands by this moniker. It is primarily a German genre name as far as I can tell. If you would like to challenge the previous consensus, you are free to do so, but please do not revert my edits without explaining your rationale, especially when I have already taken the time to do so on the talk page. - BalthCat ( talk) 12:49, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

It's also an extra thing that will need to be update once the album is released. Fezmar9 ( talk) 04:37, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
Hi. I recently did some changes in the line-up of BTBAM as 24.122.53.126 since I wasn't logged in. I just wanted to know why you reverted it. Actually, if you see the band live or if you watch their DVD, you would see that Paul Waggoner and Dan Briggs DO vocals in Selkies, Foam Born, Prequel To The Sequel, etc. Even on The Great Misdirect, Paul do lead vocals on some parts of Desert of Song.

Just curious, what guideline are you referring to in this edit here? Fezmar9 ( talk) 22:54, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
Sure thing, bro. • GunMetal Angel 04:13, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
Hey Angel, I saw you have reverted 75.1.88.7's efforts in the past, here. I've just reverted some of their edits to Red Hot Chili Peppers articles--this message is a word to the wise, I reckon. Take it easy, Drmies ( talk) 04:25, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
from WP:V: Self-published sources (online and paper).
and from Self-published and questionable sources as sources on themselves
It trust that this satisfies your requirements. First-hand sources are preferred for information like this. -- Walter Görlitz ( talk) 21:47, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
I'd be interested to know why you chose to revert the information about Despised Icon's breakup. I presumed that, since Despised Icon itself was making the announcement - both through Facebook, their MySpace blog, and Twitter - it qualified as a primary source and sufficient under WP:SELFPUB. In that sense, I felt my edits were justified. If it's the quality of the edits that you're concerned about, perhaps we can work together on making a more parsimonious version of the announcement.
You could make the argument that, since they're doing one final tour, the breakup has not occurred yet, but the fact that the band has gone out and made a rather serious announcement - I think - qualifies it as information worth including.-- WaltCip ( talk) 22:12, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

I've put the converted template back on The Cleansing. The reason I placed it there originally is that there are several pages that refer to the novel that link to The Cleansing. These links should be cleaned up and then the converted template can be removed. See WP:MOVE#Usurping a page title. Thanks. -- Rtrace ( talk) 20:07, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
I wanted to tell you that I'm doing a project for my college english class. The project is to take a wikipedia page that we are interested in that isn't well written and fix it. I need my work to be posted and kept up so my professor can see what I have edited. Please refrain from undoing my work, because I need my professor to see my changes. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by CasaBasa ( talk • contribs) 03:17, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
I hate that band, but dude, how was I vandalizing it by putting 'easycore'? That's what they are, a mixture of pop punk and metalcore. You told me I vandalized the article when all I did was put what it actually is. Just because you don't think it's a genre doesn't mean it isn't one. Don't be a dick. AtheistFish
About that thing I posted on the Despised Icon page, how could I have better phrased that exactly? I do know from their press statement that they said they would be touring before splitting up. Or is the introductory passage fine as it is? Backtable Speak to me concerning my deeds. 03:08, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
Where does it say that line breaks aren't to be used in the infobox? It has been like this forever. Has it changed? Also I've never seen commas being used. Mike Allen 22:23, 29 April 2010 (UTC)

Please don't remove the link to the "Owl City concert tours" article from the "Owl City" article.
I spent hours to build this "Owl City concert tours" article, which is useful for any people curious about the dates & locations of the Owl City tours and the links to the Owl City live videos available in YouTube.

Why are you removing links to The Dream (In This Moment album)?-- ShelfSkewed Talk 19:24, 10 May 2010 (UTC)
OK, let's start afresh. I'll drop you my standard template. Just be careful and don't get yourself into trouble with it! :)
Hello, per your request, I've granted you Rollback rights! Just remember:
Notice that "demo album" simply links to the demo article. There is no such thing as a demo album - MFKR was their first album and is now considered just a demo. A demo can consist of two songs or twenty songs - there is no distinction between something being a demo and this made up "demo album". 74.206.49.10 ( talk) 22:25, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
Hi mate, just to let you know, I believe that the deceased should be next to The Rev's name, as not having it there MAY imply to some people that he quit or something else.

Okay, I believe I didn't see that. You're right. Sorry for the inconvenience. • GunMetal Angel 08:57, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
I am sorry, but I am incredibly confused why you continue to perform this edit to Axe to Fall. Especially when you are attempting to enforce a guideline as if it were a policy. The guideline you continue to present me with, WP:ELNO, actually permits all of the external links present at Axe to Fall. I am not making any attempt to "re-interoperate what the rules say," as you claim in your edit summary. Fezmar9 ( talk) 22:33, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
Your removal of vandalism was actually a removal of sourced material. Read the reference yourself in the fifth paragraph: " "metalcore," a mixture of emo, hardcore punk, and melodic death metal." RG ( talk) 02:09, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
Wow, that was awhile back... :)
If I remember correctly, my comment was based on the possible copyright issue of the name. Glad to see they've made the big time! -- PMDrive1061 ( talk) 17:17, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
I even the checked the link. It goes straight to their twitter post that says they have completed their EP. I don't understand why you claimed that that is not a source.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SilverxPacker ( talk • contribs) 16:49, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Weird story, I saw the AFI userbox you made and I wanted to see if there was a flipthrough switch to change upon how your userbox said "The flood behind this user will not put out the fire inside her." to change the "her" to "him" or vice-versa, and it was also because I was curious if you were a girl. xD •

While I'm already here annoying you, could you take a look at Beautiful Thieves? It's been deleted/redirected several times before for being non-notable/not even a single, and I just restored it; and I'd like a third person's opinion. ××× BrightBlackHeaven( talk)××× 08:33, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
Well generally "rock" isn't coined as a genre on Wikipedia for music exceeding the 1970s. Usually it's listed as "alternative rock" for newer rock songs, but if it bugs you I guess change it back. • GunMetal Angel 08:52, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
I participated in the final consensus discussion. If you read the text again, you will see that there was absolutely no consensus to leave the infobox or article text describing only, or primarily, NDH. German editors or NDH-fans (often IPs) insist on editing NDH-labelled bands to promote the NDH label, even though the English media does not describe bands by this moniker. It is primarily a German genre name as far as I can tell. If you would like to challenge the previous consensus, you are free to do so, but please do not revert my edits without explaining your rationale, especially when I have already taken the time to do so on the talk page. - BalthCat ( talk) 12:49, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

The article
No Time to Bleed you nominated as a
good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the
good article criteria, but there are many changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within two weeks, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail.

Okay, I made almost all the changes to the article that were described on that page. As for the sources for the "personnel" section, I left a hidden comment saying that it was derrived from the album's booklet on the article. • GunMetal Angel 22:10, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
Okay, all done. As for the references, they don't seriously need to be that way do they? That's a lot of work and plus I've seen a lot of articles that have been approved by GA that don't have every single source in that format.• GunMetal Angel 08:53, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
