Talk:Show No Mercy

message: A good article overall.  Just a few things that need to be touched up first.  Month-year combinations don't need a comma (December 1983 instead of December, 1983).  Delink Slayer in the producer section of the infobox.  It'd be helpful to use an appositive to show who some of the people are (e.g. "guitarist Kerry King").  "Slayer were": I could be wrong, but I believe the convention is to refer to bands like Slayer in the singular (at least the American convention is, since the subject is American).  "Jeff (Hanneman)": if Hanneman wasn't part of the original quote, use brackets instead of parentheses.  Congrats to WP Slayer, by the way, for pumping out some quality articles.

replies: text: Looks good.  I didn't notice at first, but there are some minor problems with quotations marks.  There shouldn't be any smart quotes (“, ”, and ’); these normally come from writing in a word processing software like MS Word.  Also, quotes inside quotes should have single quotes: Bob said, "Mary told me that 'This is a quotation.'"  Make sure to correct that at some point; other than that, this looks like it meets WP:WIAGA.  Good work!  ShadowHalo 06:55, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

message: This organization was born in 1985, Show No Mercy was released in 1983. How did the PMRC send the letter to Slagel about the record release? --Born Again 83 (talk) 14:22, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

message: I've removed it. I've had this album for over 20 years, that sample was not taken from it. It sounds more like a pre-production demo. I'm not even sure why this article talks about "poor production quality," since it's actually quite good, all things considered. It stands up to contemporary stuff like Metallica's Kill 'Em All, at least to my ears.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.241.214.138 (talk) 05:45, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

===GA Sweeps: Pass===
As part of the WikiProject Good Articles, we're doing Sweeps to go over all of the current GAs and see if they still meet the GA criteria. I went through the article and made various changes, please look them over. I believe the article currently meets the criteria and should remain listed as a Good Article. Altogether the article is well-written and is still in great shape after its passing in 2007. Continue to improve the article making sure all new information is properly sourced and neutral. It would be beneficial to update the access dates for all of the sources. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. I have updated the article history to reflect this review. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 05:57, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: GA Sweeps: Pass

message: I don't know how Slayer's Show No Mercy can't nt  be considered first-wave of black metal. Venom is considerd the band that invented black metal, yet Show No Mercy was released in  1983 and Welcome to Hell was released in 1981. Bathory is the band that actually would define black metal as we know it and there first album was released in 1984. Slayer's Show No Mercy is a 1983 release so how is it not a fist-wave of black metal album album. (Yes I know it's obviously speed metal I want to know about the black metal part.) If Venom is first-wave of black metal then how is this album not.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.209.181.76 (talk) 08:07, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
