Talk:Cryptic Writings

message: Why is thrash metal listed. This album is a hard rock/heavy metal album. There isn't enough thrash on it to justify adding it to the infobox. 217.40.128.181 (talk) 22:39, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Just to clarify, I've never added anything to this article. I have reverted a single user who has used numerous IP socks to try and remove content. If you review the edit history of the article it is a clear that this content has been added to the article by no less than 15 unrelated editors (both logged-in and anonymous). A check-user for the origins of these different contributors show they originate from the UK, Europe, the US, New Zealand, Australia andsouthern Asia. More than enough weight to verify the validity of the added content. Only 1 single purpose account (and his IP socks) have ever complained and deleted the content because it goes against their own personal opinion. And these types of edits will always be reverted until that editor can provide a reliable source that outweighs the consensus and proves that the content should be removed.

thread_title:  Why? 

message: "Even though this album is similar in style to Countdown to Extinction and Youthanasia, it is currently still the last Megadeth album to go platinum."
Is it me, or does this sentence make no sense? This should either be split into two sentences, or one half of it should be deleted. Just wanted to check before I went ahead and did something about it. 24.91.115.238 (talk) 01:57, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Minor Edit 

message: WTF 
When I try to keep going to get more albums after this one by clicking on the Discography on the side of the page, it always Re-Directs me to the Live Traxx album.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.239.44.204 (talk) 06:37, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  can't access the rest of the album discography 

message: "This is the first and so far only album where Vic Rattlehead does not appear at all in any tangible form,"
This is false, there is an abstract painting of Vic in the original album's CD booklet. However it only appears partially in the remaster. It is not a smudge or whatever the writer of this article thought that it was. It was there for a reason.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.206.124.190 (talk) 22:27, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Vic Rattlehead on CW 

message: I must say that I'm pretty surprised when I found out that She-Wolf doesn't have it's own article. Can someone please make an appropriate page about this wonderful song? And don't tell me that this song wasn't released as a single, because it's the best on this CD, worldwide recognized as a heavy metal masterpiece and played in literally every Megadeth live show.--95.156.10.43 (talk) 19:54, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
