replies: text: It also needs a list of members and dates of tenure. It would seem from the prose that considerably more than the 4 people listed in the infobox have been in the band. --kingboyk 22:33, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

message: This page, and many related pages are at present fucking awful. No sources at all for a start. And by the way, you can't just create a page for every single song on an album. They're just not notable, failing WP:MUSIC. Hopefully most of these will get deleted over the next few days. Blackmetalbaz (talk) 21:31, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Sorting this page out

message: I don't know how to do this or else I would do it myself. 
The correct title of the album is 
LA SEXORCISTO: DEVIL MUSIC, VOL. 1 (numerous sources confirm this, including the album cover, but what I just posted is a copy and paste from the Rob Zombie website). 
Not only is the actual title Vol. 1, not Volume One, but there is a comma in there. 
Someone created a new page and the old one now redirects to it, which points to the wrong title. Can someone fix it?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Noneof yourbusiness48 (talk • contribs) 13:08, 23 December 2015 (UTC)

message: White Zombie was Groove Metal
Paul ENA Kostabi did NOT form White Zombie. This was formed by Rob Zombie. Ena had drug serious drug problems which led to his firing out of the band after the first album.
————— 
§The term Groove Metal did not exist when White Zombie first came out. Therefore, you cannot simply list them as Groove Metal. Yes, they are Groove Metal, but they couldn't be called something that didn't exist. Noneof yourbusiness48 (talk) 13:17, 23 December 2015 (UTC)

message: This inevitably happens to every band at some point on Wikipedia. A user comes along and decides that they don't like a certain genre being listed. But, I think Wikipedia has an interesting policy on notability that should apply to genres as well... 
To determine if someone is notable enough for a page, we ask if they are now or ever were notable. If today, someone meets the criteria of being notable, then even if no one were to ever speak another word about this person, they will still be notable forever.
The same should apply to genres. 
White Zombie may have never played the typical Heavy Metal music, but they were known as a Heavy Metal band. Therefore, they should always be remembered as a Heavy Metal band. 
Think of someone like Taylor Swift, who went from Country to Pop. Are we going to delete her being listed as Country? Of course not. We will simply add Pop to her list. 
Or Elvis Presley, who played Rhythm and Blues because Rock and Roll didn't exist until Alan Freed coined the phrase. - still listed as Rhythm and Blues. 
And that, is what should be done here with White Zombie. They are Heavy Metal. They may be something else in addition. But we do not delete the old genre.

message: It's only 2 tracks and is less than 10mins overall. Yet every instance on Wiki calls it an EP. But quick searches online also classifies it as a single. If anyone else agrees, I'll probably change all of the instances. (FYI I noticed that on one of the compilations, a few songs "from the same session" got released, but Pig Heaven wasn't re-released individually with those songs; otherwise, then it would've indeed be an EP) Xanarki (talk) 07:13, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
