Sepultura discography edit

Now is the time! Cannibaloki 17:43, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Some of the references are missing an accessdate. Gary King (talk) 18:49, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sorry for my forgetfulness, thank you very much! Cannibaloki 23:29, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Some music videos do not have directors listed. Find an alternate source to MVDBase, its not reliable. Tenacious D Fan (talk) 13:45, 28 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. How is this meant to be comprehensive with a directors missing. Also, what order are the singles charts in? Not by alphabet anyway. Tenacious D Fan (talk) 19:07, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Ok, I'll put all so charts in alphabetical order, I will NOT change more. Cannibaloki 20:10, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Who directed "Choke"? Tenacious D Fan (talk) 13:35, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Green tickY Done This video was directed by Raul Machado. Cannibaloki 14:43, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Still some problems. The album chart countrys are in a irregular order. Tenacious D Fan (talk) 10:57, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Woah. My mistake. Tenacious D Fan (talk) 23:19, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support Looks really good! My only complaint was a sloppy lead and accompanying cleanup tag, so I went ahead and copyedited myself. Voila! Drewcifer (talk) 08:18, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Resolved stuff from Drewcifer

Comments Good start. A few suggestions:

  • The lead is a little too long. Try and condense it down by a paragraph or two.
  • The first sentence reads very awkwardly. See Linkin Park discography for another current FLC that starts off much more smoothly.
  • The chart columns are in the wrong order. They should be alphabetized by English name, not English abbreviation.
  • I recommend dispersing the certification citations into the cells, rather then keeping them in the header where it's too vague.
  • Sepultura is a Brazilian band, therefore international date-format should be used (DD Month YYYY). Drewcifer (talk) 04:28, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

  • The sections in the page should be the same order as in the infobox. (Video albums and music videos are flipped)
  • "the band stayed their friends Paulo Jr. and Jairo Guedz for record Morbid Visions" I don't understand this
  • And that is a very long sentence. Could it be broken into two?
  • "With the new formation, Sepultura recorded, in 1987, Schizophrenia." Yoda speak. It should be "With the new formation, Sepultura recorded Schizophrenia in 1987."
"The Force is with you..."
  • "Max Cavalera left the band, and subsequently formed a new one, Soulfly. The others announced that they would continue under the Sepultura name and were searching for a replacement." When? What "others"?
  • "Derrick Green from Cleveland wound up filling the frontman spot,": "Wound up" is not encyclopedic tone
  • Why isn't there a Brazilian peak chart position for either albums or singles? If they didn't chart there, this should be stated in the lead section.
Best leave this issue to one side.
Why? Either some did chart, and the information is missing, therefore not ready for FL status, or they didn't chart, in which case it should be mentioned that they haven't had any releases chart in their home country. Matthewedwards (talk • contribs • email) 07:32, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • No need to list every album release in the lead. Some cherry picking here is allowed.
  • "Appeared on the charts for the Billboard 200 at #162." → "Appeared on the Billboard 200 charts at #162."
  • Entire lead section needs a good copy-edit.

Oppose Currently has a {{cleanup}} tag attatched which, since that qualifies for a Quick Fail at WP:GA, it certainly should at WP:FL Matthewedwards (talk • contribs • email) 07:36, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The cleanup tag has been admirably dealt with by Drewcifer. The Rambling Man (talk) 09:08, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
