Note: on 11 September 2006, the following discussion, relevant to the NPOV flag on the main page, was blanked. I have reinstated it. This involved losing a more recent edit which simply stated that there did not seem to be any NPOV issues. Notinasnaid 20:09, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Anyone else think this article isn't written in a neutral tone?

Response: I very much agree. The article preaches God, which is clearly unbiased. And it preaches the band as being good, another bias. It's not written in a professional tone.

"The article preaches God, which is clearly unbiased"? ;)

Plus it sounds like advertising to me.

  • To be specific, but not complete "Clearly, End of Silence is one of the most compelling debut albums of our time." certainly has no place in Wikipedia unless it is a sourced quote. Notinasnaid 20:09, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Someone posted that "Breathe into me" and "Already Over" reached #1 on the rock charts. There is no proof.

I think I took away most of what read like a press release. However, someone should add citations still. Thief12 04:08, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
I'm starting to edit it now. I saw that as well, thoguh I do love the band, the page is very biased. I'm gunna try to help this out a bit. IronCrow 19:40, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Red band.jpg

Image:Red band.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Voice similarities... who cares?

I think the last two additions (but particularly the most recent) about the lead singer's voice are neither encyclopedic nor relevant. At the very least, they need to be referenced with some reliable, notable sources, so it's not just someone's random opinion being attached to what's supposed to be an informational work.

I've removed the paragraph until any objections are raised. Kiyura (talk) 17:45, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
