From where? China?

Most musicians/bands in the wikipedia don't have their discographies in a table format- for the sake of consistency wouldn't the discography be better laid out as a list as in the case of most other bands? Not that i'm going to war over it :-) quercus robur 23:45 Jan 19, 2003 (UTC)

I agree with you - if nothing else, putting things in tables makes them harder to edit (at least for thickos like me who don't understand the table syntax). I'll change it over to a list. I think plain bullet-pointed lists look nicer anyway. --Camembert

Can someone have a look at the changes I've made? Makes more sense to me than the prior revision, but though I know there's that whole passing a tape to Fred Durst story, I'm not a fan and don't really know it fully. Jimregan 04:55 Apr 29, 2003 (UTC)

I think this might need a bit of NPOV'ing.

[edit] Copyright!

I deleted a large section of text because it was directly copied from [1]

Why is that an issue? As long as the information is factual, and referenced, why can't it be copied? We aren't writing a term paper here, the goal of Wikipedia is to spread factual information, not to write "original" articles... Supaikku 23:52, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Name of band

Is it true that the group added another 'D' to their name in case a real 'puddle of mud' sued them for copyright ?!!

Tee hee.

[edit] Wow, non-neutral POV.

So I just deleted a section that accused them of being "talentless". Way to keep NPOV, folks.

Yeah, but the rest of the article is non-neuteal anyway, so to be fair you'd kind of have to delete the entire thing. 68.192.53.216 09:50, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

I'd say a band as terrible as Puddle of Mudd should really be excused from the NPOV rule, but yeah, you're right: this article isn't NPOV anyway; it has a bias towards the band. --HisSpaceResearch 14:07, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] History

The history section is a complete mess. It needs to be written in chronological order. I will be making some major changes soon. Such a major band deserves more than this rabble of a page. Jason f90 12:18, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Suggestion: the mainstream success portion of History contains the statement "Copies of their album were selling like hot cakes nation and worldwide." I feel this sentence should be removed as it is needless fluff. Comments? --Kfanciulli 05:50, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Major Changes

I've tidied up the whole article and insert MUCH more info. Also, previous band members,demos,etc. Check it out. Jason f90 15:18, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
