Running Wild

Someone please check the new biography section recently added to the Running Wild article. It is completely unsourced, POV/non-neutral, sounds spammy (blatantly promotional tone) and could even be a copyvio. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 10:50, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for bringing attention to this. I have removed that messy, unencyclopedic section. Mungo Kitsch (talk) 20:39, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

For The Fallen Dreams

Article: For the Fallen Dreams. The formatting on this article is atrocious. Enough to make me vomit. I put a post in it's talk page that addresses the issues with it. If someone could work on it, it would be much obliged. Thank you. XyphynX9 (talk) 17:07, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for giving attention to this issue. I hope that my article transformation at least improves the situation over there. Mungo Kitsch (talk) 04:34, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

The List Of Nu Metal Bands!!!

--4.255.204.214 (talk) 01:18, 28 February 2013 (UTC) The list of Nu Metal bands is not right. one third of the bands on the list arent even Nu Metal. Please someone take them off. It miss leads people who dont go on each of there pages and checks there actually genres. --4.255.204.214 (talk) 01:18, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

Okay, which bands are on the list that are not actually nu metal? Why, and based off of what circumstances, are said bands not nu metal? Why should I take your word for it over that of the 161 sources supplied at the page? Are some of these bands "not nu metal" because the corroborating sources fail the reliable source guidelines? Well, I removed one band that did not have a corroborating source attached, but that is all I can do at this point. These lists are assembled because of what the reliable sources say, and not necessarily the opining of any given individual. If any examples listed are not nu-metal, and the sources are either unreliable or don't address the band's status as "nu metal", yay or nay, then the example can possibly be removed. However, your statement here is not only too vague to benefit the project but also is a grammatical eyesore. Thanks for your time. Mungo Kitsch (talk) 05:16, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

I personally don't believe bands like Primus, Slayer, Jane's Addiction and A Perfect Circle are or ever were nu metal, but that's what the sources say, and trust me there is a plethora of them. Your going to have to have a VERY in-depth discussion on the articles talk page to have any hope of removing these bands. I call the big one bitey 02:33 5 March, 2013 (UTC)

Files

File:Whitechapel-TheSomaticDefilementreissue.jpg File:TheFloodReIssue.jpg These files are being challenged for deletion by User:Stefan2. This guy from what I read has been accused of stalking certain people before and it seems he's only challenged files that I uploaded so far. He is also using his arguments completely incorrect. Someone want to add some point to the discussion for these files? I feel like I'm gonna lose when I shouldn't. Thank you. XyphynX9 (talk) 15:48, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
