Slayer[edit]

I have been working on this article over the past few days adding references and such and would like some comments, constructive criticism etc to improve the article in anyway. Thank you M3tal H3ad 11:04, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you i have dealt with all them problems as best as i could (except the lead, which i will work on later). Any other opinions? M3tal H3ad 13:35, 3 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please remove the trivial information about the band's naming myth from the "1980's" section, and instead replace it with information about the band's original founding. Michaelas10 (Talk) 15:30, 3 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thankyou. I have changed the myth section and original founding. I also removed more weasel words. M3tal H3ad 04:11, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Could someone give me some pointers on how to improve the lead? That's the only section that makes this not GA worthy. Thankyou M3tal H3ad 03:19, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sure the cover artwork for "Mandatory Suicide" was controversial - maybe you can investigate and see if it warrants inclusion in the article. LuciferMorgan 05:19, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Note 36 which links to whole lyrics is copyright violation. LuciferMorgan 05:22, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, removed note 36. I'm not aware that mandatory suicide was released as a single? i can't seem find anything on it. M3tal H3ad 05:57, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sure the artwork had a teen committing suicide on it, unless that was another single you can think of? LuciferMorgan 12:44, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Mandatory suicide was released as a 12" and a single. It had a picture of a newly recruited teenager hanging himself from his bedroom door.Ukbn2 08:14, 7 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well i can't seem to find it. If you do, feel free to add it after the nazi part and make sure you have a reference. M3tal H3ad 08:21, 7 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
