Nile discography[edit]

After few days of work, I think this discography is ready to be a FL. Cannibaloki 04:33, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    • " along with Chris Lollis since 2007" - no, you've already said "As of 2008, " so this becomes a bit too much.
    • Check you're not using en-dash where hyphen should be used, e.g. self-titled is correct, self–titled is not etc..
    • "seminal classical work" - POV - just stick with "classical work"
    • " In 1997 "Ramses" demo " presumably Ramses should be in italics without quotes here?
    • "Relapse Records was responsible for Nile's debut studio album " incorrect. They may have paid for it but the band and the studio were responsible... reword.
    • "After a extensive touring due to large success of first album" - nowhere close to English.
    • "released on same year" ditto.
    • "In mid 2004 guitarist Karl Sanders, working and his solo album entitled Saurian Meditation. It was released on October through Relapse Records. In 2005 Nile released the fourth studio album Annihilation of the Wicked, that debuted on Swedish charts at number 27. In 2007 they released Ithyphallic, the most sucessfull effort debuting on Billboard charts at number 162." - just not English - suggest you get a copyeditor to sort this all out - at least half a dozen problems here alone.
    • "two of their rare previous releases" - rare? Context?
    • "the first three music videos." - which "first three"?
    • "digital only" - hyphenate.
    • What makes Zobbel a WP:RS?

  • The order of sections in the infobox should match the order of sections in the article.
  • I've never seen any other page lay out the sections the way this one does. Check out WP:LAYOUT and WP:BETTER#Layout, or ask at the talk pages to make sure this is okay. It just looks really odd to me.
  • Try to link to discography in the Lede somehow. You could do it by giving an overview at the beginning of the second paragraph in the LS: The discography of Nile consists of # studio albums, # compilations, etc etc.

  • Comments II
    • None of the lead is cited, e.g. where the band are from, who the members are, " After extensive touring to support ..." etc.
    • The lead doesn't mention the single Papyrus. And the list doesn't mention how it charted.
      • This single didn't any chart;
    • "Chris Lollis playing bass, vocals in live performances" reads strangely to me - do you mean he always plays bass and then vocals in live performances, or do you mean he only plays in live performances, both bass and vocals?
      • I think it's supposed to say that he is only part of the group in live performances, playing both bass and vocals. Additionally, the "along" is unnecessary. Simply "with" would suffice. Matthewedwards (talk • contribs • email) 08:25, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • "the most successful effort " why not "their most successful album..."?
    • Also not sure about the easter egg-style link to the Mars ogg file. The Rambling Man (talk) 07:45, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    •  Done "...easter egg-style..." —hahaha!!! Cannibaloki 16:03, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
