I, as well as lots of others, including User:Sn0wflake and User:SoothingR, has worked really hard on this article and I can't come up with more things to edit or add. I definitely think it deserves to be a featured article. - Aki (talk) 13:32, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose — serious lack of citations, particularly in the first half of the article. Additionally, many of the citations are bare and/or poorly formatted. –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 13:34, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose - Large chunks unreferenced, including opinions. References are a mess, need publisher and last access date at the very least. Current ref 15 is "Kerrang!"... which is totally unverifiable, which is just an example. Iffy sources, (A YouTube Video? http://www.amvlyrics.com/ (should we even link to a site like that, do they have permission to put up copyrighted material?) Lots of short one and two sentence paragraphs. Ealdgyth - Talk 13:48, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Oppose — article has a decent structure, but too many problems, including all of the issues noted above. --an odd name 23:03, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
