[edit] History section

What was the rationale for the deletion of this (fully sourced) section? Unless someone gets back to me I will restore it. Confusing. Blackmetalbaz (talk) 02:39, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Edit

Guys, anyone knows why the "edit" option keeps falling on the "history" part?

  • I tried to fix it, but I only achieved not to fall on the letters of the part... Iaberis 11:21, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sources

Please, Stop citing Tripod. They're NOT reliable source at all. Only Doom-Metal.Com are reliable source for death/doom or doom metal in generally. And Therion never was death/doom. And lot more bands in the lists are definitely NOT doom metal at all. See WP:RS.

First off, I agree about Tripod. But why do you regard doom-metal.com as a reliable source? It seems much like metal-archives.com to be yet another fan run site, regardless of how useful it is. Surely, for this page a reliable source is going to be published in book form or at least in a well-known magazine like Terrorizer? Blackmetalbaz (talk) 15:24, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bit of an edit

I've tried to edit this article to make it look a bit more encyclopedic with references and whatnot. I heavily trimmed the band list. Even what I've left looks a bit unwieldy, but I've taken 'notable bands' to be those recently featured in Terrorizer's Doom Metal Special under its sections on death/doom. This is currently my primary reference, but I'll try and find some others that don't include websites like metal-archives or doom-metal.com. The list doesn't really want to get bigger, but if someone wants to set up a category for 'List of Death/Doom Bands' feel free, so other bands (which have wikipedia pages!) can be added to that rather than the main page. I put a tag on the list saying don't add bands that don't have pages; I know there's a couple on there which don't at the moment, but I'm going to get round to writing ones for Dream Death and Korpse later on. The page still needs some working on, but I hope this looks a bit better! Blackmetalbaz (talk) 17:39, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Doom/death

Isn't death/doom also abbreviated "doom/death"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.114.154.210 (talk) 12:12, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
