Why has it been deleted? Why does no one discuss it here first?



the reason states that they were "non-notable"? how are they non-notable? everyone knows about them around here, they are a legend

They are notable enough. They've met Wikipedia's requirements. It's probably just some sad disgruntled metal fan/fans that believe The Devil Wears Prada isn't a Christian band. Guess the quotes in the page are the reason for this. I wouldn't worry too much about it. IronCrow 07:45, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] DRV and restoration

Consensus at the DRV was that an assertion of notability could probably be made. Per the DRV nominator's suggestion, I've restored the previous version from May 3 as a starting point; those who work on the article, please make sure to include an assertion of the band's notability.

  • Also, per the deletion review, please add additional reliable sources corroborating the band's notability. At the moment, the only sources are Purevolume, Myspace, and other primary/non-independent sources. Secondary sources, such as media mentions, would make the article much stronger. --Kinu t/c 06:20, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dogs Can Grow Beards All Over

Dogs Can Grow Beards All Over is not a real music video, thats advertisement for their cd, it needs to be deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Underoathfan90 (talkcontribs) 05:44, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Quotes have been sabotaged.

yeah, just read them. they've been sabotaged. I read them before, that's not what they said. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Acid 1 (talkcontribs) 06:35, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The quotes have been sabotaged. EDIT

Thank goodness for reverting and copies of old edits. Changed back to normal. 'MuthaChuck' would be the culprit.

[edit] Genre

Please do not list "Alternative CCM" as a genre. It is not a genre related to the band, as it does not encompass hardcore/metalcore bands. Please refer to the Alternative CCM article for further reference. It's basically the same as listing "Christian rock" on every Christian rock band's page, when their styles could be "Pop Punk" or "Deathcore." IronCrow (talk) 01:27, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Also to note: I don't think anyone minds Hardcore as another genre, except that it is kind of broad. IronCrow (talk) 16:37, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Well, TDWP is certainly not deathcore like JFAC. That's why I keep changing it to hardcore. Check the sources, Mike Hranica cites This is Hell as a big inspiration. Clearly this influence would carry over into a more hardcore sounding album as opposed to JFAC. JFAC (being deathcore) cites bands like Cattle Decapitation and Decapitated as influences. TDWP does not cite them as influences; therefore, TDWP is more hardcore than deathcore.

I'll just remove the unsourced genres altogether.Inhumer (talk) 19:45, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Good plan, thank you for doing that!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.82.208.54 (talk) 00:20, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

I stated deathcore because there are obvious Deathcore influences in the band's instrumental work. Vocals are a completely different story. Regardless of what the band cites as an influence, it doesn't mean the band will sound like it. For instance, Demon Hunter cites Pantera, theya ren't very much alike. IronCrow (talk) 05:15, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

I'd just like to add, for the records. I had listend to JFAC (new album) and then, later found TDWP. I must say I was shocked at how much they sounded alike. All I'm trying to say is, as IronCrow has stated, is no matter what a band states they are as a genre, it may not be right on what they say. Acid 1 (talk) 07:52, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, TDWP's "Dear Love" album is what reminded me of Job For a Cowboy, though the newest album doesn't. IronCrow (talk) 23:30, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

I think deathcore should be listed as a genre as TDWP sounds very similar to At The Throne of Judgment, who is listed as deathcore. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.199.23.231 (talk) 21:37, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

I believe so as well, but I won't put it up because it keeps getting reverted. IronCrow (talk) 02:23, 30 March 2008 (UTC) WHO THE HELL KEEPS PUTTING SCREAMO??????????? THEY ARE IN NO WAY SCREAMO> —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.199.23.231 (talk) 01:41, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Whoever put death metal, hmmmm, nope!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.185.176.245 (talk) 23:43, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Who in the hell put Jungle with a link that goes to geographical Jungle??? 20:49, 28 April 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yet Inue (talkcontribs)

Someone stuck up Metalcore as the genre and decided to be a one man consensus... You guys settle that.¤IrønCrøw¤ (Speak to Me) 04:04, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
