[edit] Publish date

If this was released in 2005, why is it filed under 2002 albums? Maybe I am not reading something correctly... - Technel 02:37, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Lyrics

Should this article contain album lyrics? I don't believe wikipedia is a repository for music lyrics. --ZeWrestler Talk 15:01, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

  • This page shouldn't directly have lyrics, due to possible copyright infringement, but you can post a link to a site that has lyrics for this album, such as Kiwilyrics, a lyrics wiki.

[edit] Miscellaneous Fact/Rumor?

"Finally, if you listen to the song "Stricken", you can vaguely make out a voice in the background, but not during the chorus. (confirmation required)" This truly belongs here in the discussion portion of the article before it is published in the main article. If someone can confirm this, then I'm sure a small mention of differences in the songs can be mentioned in the main article. - NLA

[edit] Mascot ?

Doesn't it strike anyone how similar Disturbed's new "mascot" is to Iron Maiden's Eddie ? Even in the "Land of Confusion" video, it sorta behaves the same way that Eddie would (leading the masses, fighting the corrupt system, etc). When he frees himself from his chains, it kinda produced a flashback to "Piece of Mind". Just a thought... --Voievod 22:48, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hell ?

What about the song "Hell"? Apparently it was one of the bonus tracks, but only available if bought through Best Buy. --xjosx 02:48, 19 December 2006

i dunno where you heard that but that's wrong. the song is on the stricken single and on the band's myspace page, but that's it. no best buy exclusive anything.68.255.185.168 16:41, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Diefy

I created a page for Diefy, and linked to it. Now the link actually links to something other than the literal meaning. Dan 16:57, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cover

I switched the two cover images around, because logically the regular image should be at the top. Dan 21:16, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Disturbed - Ten Thousand Fists.jpg

Image:Disturbed - Ten Thousand Fists.jpg 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 Wikipedia articles 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 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

[edit] Different song articles

I noticed that all the songs from this album have a separate article. WP:MUSIC says:

"A song is probably notable if it meets one or more of the following standards:

  1. ...has been covered in sufficient independent works.
  2. ...has been performed independently by several notable artists, bands or groups.
  3. ...has been ranked on a national or significant music chart.
  4. ...has been recognized by journalists, biographers, and/or other respected cultural critics as being significant to a noteworthy group's repertoire.
  5. ...has won a significant award or honor."

I don't see how any of these apply to most of these song articles. I would think it would be better to merge them into the album article. Zouavman Le Zouave 18:34, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
