The cleanup tag has been placed on the list page since March 2007. The article has changed a lot since then. Can anyone tell how can it be reviewed again? Weltanschaunng 15:06, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
People help me with this Article as i have no images and can't do special side bits and all becuase im new and also whats tone? METALFREAK04 12:07, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
OK didnt know, i will read it. may take awhile. i only did a quick job on that because i had the bot up my back side lol. and was gonna do everything myself today and i was like where is it lol. ah fair point hough, i just got a book which describes this band in them can i use that or is that "copyright violations"? METALFREAK04 17:43, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
Right just read it, basically not to copy anything off another website or pre-release etc. but it does put it in funny fashion. If they put it in basic down to earth english instead of all these fancy words we would get there far easier. METALFREAK04 17:51, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
wow, we must be writing at the same time, right yours made more sense than the article did. thanks. i do the article later, its on my to do list of my own. METALFREAK04 17:52, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
This article has been tagged again for notability by http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Viriditas. It had been tagged once before and the tag was removed because notability was established. Can someone fix this again please? Thanks

What changes need to be made to move this up out of "start class"? thanks! 67.58.145.180 22:33, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
Just bringing this to your attention. I have no knowledge in the topic; I'm replacing uses of ((compactTOC6)) and found this. Circeus 19:29, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
Shall we do a list of metal 2007 albums? just an idea going round in my head. and give them a short description to say how good it is. etc. METALFREAK04 14:48, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
yep, no need for bitting my head off. was just throwing in ideas man. And that isnt an album review, thats saying a line of comission and album review has to be 8+ lines and actually say the tracks etc blah blah. cant be bothered to explain. but yeah :) METALFREAK04 19:50, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
One of this project's Good Articles, Nine Inch Nails is up for Featured Article candidacy. Please take a look at the article and give us your opinion over at its nomination page. And maybe a Pass/Support vote if you feel strongly one way or the other. Thanks! Drewcifer 00:11, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
I've been improving the heavy metal portal recently, using the alternative music portal as a base. You may wish to comment here. CloudNine 09:21, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
I have been trying to clean out the Augean stables at WP:AR1 in the music category. There were a large number of metal bands previously listed there; I wrote articles for a few that were obviously notable, but there are a bunch of outstanding requests for a few other bands that are a bit cloudier and might take some serious effort from a dedicated shredhead to pass muster. If anyone's favorite band is listed here, feel free to write!

One of this project's lists, Nine Inch Nails discography, is currently a Featured List candidate. Please take a look at the article and leave your comments here. Drewcifer 04:29, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
I just came across Wikipedia:WikiProject Metal/Created and Wikipedia:WikiProject Metal/Created/Album Articles which have been around since before I joined this project. They don't seem to be in use, and I can't really see any particular use for them. What does everyone think? J Milburn 11:07, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
There's a vote to move Iron Maiden to Iron Maiden (band) on the relevant talk page, they haven't seemed to notify WikiProject Metal. ≈ Maurauth (Ravenor) 14:57, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
I think this is worth mentioning here, as it seems to be quite an issue. Many Metallica and Iron Maiden songs (just songs off the albums, not singles) have recently been nominated for deletion. It is looking like they are mostly going to go, but they have been nominated individually, so if any can be shown to be independently notable, they will probably be kept. All the debates (as far as I am aware) are currently listed on our deletions page, as well as one song currently prodded. I believe all nominated are contested prods. One debate of possible interest is Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/These Colours Don't Run, where myself and E tac have crossed swords on the subject. Just thought I'd put a note here to bring it to the attention of the project. J Milburn 16:10, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
All the discussions have been closed relating to Metallica, Maiden and Megadeth songs. Every song was merged and redirected to the relevent album article, redirected to it, or just plain deleted. Details can be seen on the deletions page. J Milburn 16:23, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
Ok, things are happening in this department once again, but now the songs that have been nominated are singles, which is taking it a step further. We have Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Whiplash (song) and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jump in the Fire. I'm still keeping the deletions page up to date, I just thought this was worth mentioning here. J Milburn 10:54, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
They are trying to delete this article!, we need to get more sources so we can save it!. MyTemple 17:13, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
I need a consensus on whther or not we should use line breaks or comma breaks between genres in music infoboxes. I think a line break is more ordered, but some think the comma break is the way to go. An example of the comma break would be on the Linkin Park page and an example of the line break between genres in the music infobox can be found on the Judas Priest page. Which is the correct way to go?Navnløs 20:06, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
Understood, hoever I would deabte the fact that it looks neater. It takes more space, yes, but it looks much neater, I think. The majority of metal band pages also seem to prefer the line break. I think the comma break sticks out like a sore thumb, since everything else in the music infobox is listed one-by-one. I will take this issue up with the music project page, though I have to say I think I have less of a chance winning there (like I said most of the metal band pages use the line break method).Navnløs 22:32, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
Please review the article and state your thoughts on its entry. Óðinn 06:05, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
I'm student of Speech Therapy [Logopedie] in Brazil. I'm researching about 'grunten' or growling vocals [death grunt/death growl] used by Death Metal singers. I would like to know if you have some articles about death growl/growling vocals. I'm have difficulties because many terms exist in english to define this type of voice, while that in portuguese the term exists only is "gutural". However, have no studies about this theme in Brazil. You also can indicate scientific sources about my theme? I will be much grateful.
Send me anything. Any help is valid. I'm very grateful for your attention and I hope your answer.

There should be a section made for Good articles, and on the good articles, the main author of the article should be listed. Godsmack is a current FAC. See this for an example: Wikipedia: WikiProject Horror.
Thank you,

I'm cordially requesting project users to join the discussion of the punk metal redirect, in order to obtain a clear consensus. Thank you. - Mtmelendez (Talk) 22:42, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
Recently I requested peer reviews for the article Slipknot (band), seeing as it's listed within your project I was wondering if a participant of the project could leave a review here. Rezter (talk) 14:37, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
Who has a bot running on this page? These archival bots are absolutely, 110% rubbish. The archive page is now 105kb long, so the bot needs ridding of. I'll manually archive the page myself, without the useless bot. LuciferMorgan (talk) 10:03, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
Over the past few weeks, I have added a lot of information to the article on slipknot (band). Would someone from WikiProject Metal mind assessing it? It has passed as a GA and since the article has developed further and I feel it will be ready for a FAC soon. Rezter (talk) 12:12, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
I'd like to make readers aware of this Redirect for discussion. Punk metal now links to the metalcore article. I think the redirect should be removed as it is misleading. Punk metal is a far broader genre than metalcore, it's like redirecting food to spaghetti. Please post your comment here. Thanks! Kameejl (Talk) 19:13, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
I deleted the entire "inluences" section on Iron Maiden's article for two reasons:
1. It was not well documented with several unverified and undocumented claims.
2. It was simply not well written.
Mikepope (talk) 03:11, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
They really could be a lot better, but there's so much work to be done...I don't feel like taking it on alone when I'm busy looking after Van Halen, deleting POV statements all over the Michael Jackson pages and various other tasks. However, collaboration would be useful - if anyone wants to work on this let me know. (The Elfoid (talk) 03:52, 29 December 2007 (UTC))
We need more members. Is anyone interested joining? Thanks for reading, ThundermasterT R U C 09:37, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
I thought WikiProject members may be interested in the above AfD I have just started, due to the high number of pages which reference the genre, as well as the fact it can be found on Template:Heavymetal. J Milburn (talk) 17:07, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
There is a discussion going on here about logos in the infoboxes. Certain overzealous IPs already attempt to massively remove logos despite the lack of consensus. Your input will be most auspicious. Óðinn (talk) 10:15, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Is it possible for each music genre or category have like a little sample for readers know what music would sound of or sort of be like —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.152.140.190 (talk) 04:36, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

It seems that there are a lot of edit wars over wether to use <br /> or a comma in the infobox. I am unsure if there is an official ruleing, but the edit wars need to stop. It has calmed down lately, but there is still alot of it. —Burningclean [Speak the truth!] 21:53, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Please take a look at the article for Labyrinth, I've expanded it today, as well as Vision Divine. I would like you're comments on how I did and how I can do better (you're never too old to learn).
