[edit] GA on hold

A good article overall. Just a few things that need to be touched up first. Month-year combinations don't need a comma (December 1983 instead of December, 1983). Delink Slayer in the producer section of the infobox. It'd be helpful to use an appositive to show who some of the people are (e.g. "guitarist Kerry King"). "Slayer were": I could be wrong, but I believe the convention is to refer to bands like Slayer in the singular (at least the American convention is, since the subject is American). "Jeff (Hanneman)": if Hanneman wasn't part of the original quote, use brackets instead of parentheses. Congrats to WP Slayer, by the way, for pumping out some quality articles.

Wooo that was quick :O I changed everything, but was unsure from the brackets, changed it from ( to [. Thanks for the quick review :) M3tal H3ad 06:41, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Looks good. I didn't notice at first, but there are some minor problems with quotations marks. There shouldn't be any smart quotes (“, ”, and ’); these normally come from writing in a word processing software like MS Word. Also, quotes inside quotes should have single quotes: Bob said, "Mary told me that 'This is a quotation.'" Make sure to correct that at some point; other than that, this looks like it meets WP:WIAGA. Good work! ShadowHalo 06:55, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. M3tal H3ad 07:06, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Acclaim?

The reception section seems too negative, this album definitely has its fans. Some ideas for sources [1][2] Adamravenscroft 19:03, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] no personnel?

Just a quick question: Shouldn't there be a section about the personnel? --Johnnyw talk 11:30, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Fight Till Death 83 demo clip.ogg

Image:Fight Till Death 83 demo clip.ogg 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] PMRC

This organization was born in 1985, Show No Mercy was released in 1983. How did the PMRC send the letter to Slagel about the record release? --Born Again 83 (talk) 14:22, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

They sent it after it was released. M3tal H3ad (talk) 04:09, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
