Lead
  • The band's major-label debut, 1990's Cowboys from Hell, peaked at number 27 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart,[1] and was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). - it should be made aware that Billboard is an American organization since this band charted on international charts as well
    • Done.
  • The following year, Cowboys from Hell: The Videos was released; it included all video clips produced for Cowboys from Hell as well as additional material. This video was certified gold by the RIAA. - comma before as well
    • Done.
  • Pantera's second major-label album, Vulgar Display of Power (1992), reached number 44 on the Billboard 200,[1] and was later certified platinum in Australia and the United States. - 1)It was certified in Australia by the respective industry, so the name of the industry should be given not the country's name and the United States should be replaced with the "RIAA"
    • Done.
  • Vulgar Display of Power was backed by the singles "Mouth for War" and "Walk"; both songs received music videos that were included on 1993's Vulgar Video. - was backed by is not featured wording, replace with "included"
  • After touring for two years, the group released Far Beyond Driven (1994), which debuted atop of the Billboard 200 and ARIA charts,[1][3] and reached the top five in Sweden and United Kingdom, and was certified platinum in Canada and the U.S. - 1)It should be made aware that the ARIA charts are Australian 2)add "the" before United Kingdom
    • Done.
  • If my suggestions are taken, you may have to fix up the formatting of the "U.S./United States" instances accordingly.
    • Done.
  • The album produced three singles, "5 Minutes Alone", "I'm Broken", and the Black Sabbath cover, "Planet Caravan"; the last, reached the top 30 in the U.S. Mainstream Rock Tracks and UK singles chart. - 1)Wouldn't it be better to make the comma before the singles a colon, and then make the semi colon an emdash (the longer one) 2)Whether you take my suggestion or not, the and before the Black Sabbath cover and place it before Planet Caravan 3)the last should be the latter
    • Done.
  • The Great Southern Trendkill (1996) peaked at numbers two and four on Australia and U.S., respectively, and reached the top five in Finland and New Zealand. - 1)It should be made aware that the topic is about the charts not the country in general 2)link to the Finland/New Zealand charts?
    • Done.
  • It was certified platinum in the U.S. and Australia. Pantera's final studio album, Reinventing the Steel (2000), became their second release to peak at numbers two and four on Australia and U.S., respectively. - it should be made aware that these are the charts, it is awkwardly written like this
    • Done.
  • The best-of album Far Beyond the Great Southern Cowboys' Vulgar Hits! (2003), which combined the titles of the band's four major-label albums, was released in the U.S. - shouldn't there be another period after U.S.? Since the period that's there belongs to the acronym?
    • Done.
  • Although it only reached number 38 on the Billboard 200, it was certified platinum. - certified platinum by ___?

  • Are you absolutely sure that "Cowboys From Hell" and "Cemetery Gates" weren't released as singles? I mean, the band's template at the bottom of the page disagrees with this discography.
    • Those you mentioned were released as [one-track] radio promos, not singles.
  • I'd consider removing the refs from the lead as everything is obviously referenced again. indopug (talk) 14:55, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • "Pantera formed in the early 1980s, and" Comma not necessary.
  • "it included all video clips"
  • "as well as additional material." Delete this phrase. "included" means that there is additional material.
  • "This video was"-->The video was
  • "by the Australian Recording Industry Association and by the RIAA."
  • "both songs received music videos" What do you mean by "received"?
  • "which debuted atop of the U.S. Billboard 200 and Australian ARIA charts, and reached the top five in Sweden and the United Kingdom, and was certified platinum in Canada and the U.S.."-->which debuted atop of the U.S. Billboard 200 and Australian ARIA charts, reached the top five in Sweden and the United Kingdom, and was certified platinum in Canada and the U.S.
  • "—the latter, reached" Delete comma and make em dash a semicolon.
  • "the top five in Finland" "in"-->on.
  • "Although it only reached number 38 on the Billboard 200, was certified platinum by RIAA." Insert "the album" before "was". Dabomb87 (talk) 21:33, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • The lead needs an inline citation. Dabomb87 (talk) 15:14, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
