Notes
  • 2 images, both Creative Commons
  • In "Name", but he "couldn't resist doing the song with Igor." - is this quote necessary? Quotes should be used when the quote adds something extra (Wikipedia:Quotations). Otherwise we should just use our own words, like "he wanted to do the song with Igor".
  • In "Inflikted", Special guests include bassist Rex Brown and Max's stepson Ritchie Cavalera. - do you know what Ritchie Cavalera did for the album? What makes them "special"?
  • Date formatting, "August 16, 1996" v "25 March 2008" - the rest of the article switches between full date formats. Per WP:MOSDATE, "Dates in article body text should all have the same format."
  • In "Inflikted", "they were considered an "inappropriate" band" - who considered them 'inappropriate'? or, who is this quote "inappropriate" being attributed to? And what specifically about them (or their act?) was 'inappropriate'?
    • I provided the attribution here [1] and removed the passive voice quote by Max Cavalera. The passive voice allows the writer to avoid attributing responsibility for the verb ('deemed') to anybody. The stuff.co.nz source did not say the band was "inflammatory" or "banned". stuff.co.nz reported that a statement on the band's website by Max Cavalera claims that someone somewhere called them "inflammatory" and "inappropriate" and that Max Cavalera attributed that to somebody somewhere cancelling their shows on them, and that Max Cavalera equates that being "banned". --maclean (talk) 23:59, 25 October 2009 (UTC) [reply]
  • In "Inflikted", "...and have been forced to cancel their appearances..." - this is a strong statement. Who "forced" them? Is "have been" the correct tense?
  • Can the last sentence in "Inflikted" be updated? "On 27 June 2009, the band announced new tour dates..." (e.g. "announced" → "performed at", and could you provide a location indicator like US? Euro? where?)
  • On Broadness (Criteria 3a), the lead seems to have some details missing from the article. What is this about Brazil and France? What does Nailbomb have to do with anything? Groove metal?
