lol Yoshiko heafy by the way f#$% dragonforce trivium are 10 times better then them
How is it possible that a biography of Matt Heafy, is actually just a diss. Blantantly trying to put him in a bad light, all that it does it present critisms from other inferior artists. 
Matt Heafy is awesome, Golden God at metal hammer awards, band live band at metal hammer awards, speaks for itself. and whoever wrote that they can't solo obviously is taking what was said in the write-up and reciprocating it. If you listened to their music and knew anything about metal you would know that your statement is pure rubbish.
Too bad Trivium is an awful, pretentious band that couldn't solo to save their lives.

replies: text: I'm sorry, I was not very clear. There was a sentence in the article saying he was "known for playing complicated riffs on the guitar while singing". There are many people that do that, therefore I don't consider it notable enough to be put in a wikipedia entry. Cronos12390 19:41, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I'm not sure about this, I mainly ask the copyright holder if the image is released under GFDL.  However, the best place to ask for this would probably be the help desk.  As they meight know how to tell whether or not it is usable.  Ask something such as "how can you tell if the images that I have found on website x are ablke to be used on wikipedia?"Asics talk Editor review! 12:21, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Picture 

message: Well, Maurauth asked me to take a look over the article, and especially the citations. Here is what I have seen-
*The image needs to have source information, and an explanation of (or a link to the proof of) why the image is the copyright status you say it is.
*It would be nice if you could convert the refs to all make use of the  tags, as well as the citation templates, which looks far neater.
*The lead section should mention things that are mentioned elsewhere in the article, it is an overview. Information about his mother and such isn't particuarly relevent, so shouldn't be mentioned in the lead.
*The whole of the 'Trivium' section needs referencing. It is the kind of thing that should be easy to reference to an online bio or something, perhaps an online bio and a couple of news articles/reviews- interviews are also good.
*Again, the Roadrunner United section could do with a ref.
*Trivia sections are a generally a bad idea, see our guidelines. However, if it is going to be kept, then references will be needed!
*The 'equipment' section is a little bit fancrufty, but I can certainly see its merits. It is very, very badly sourced, too.
*Some of the background info in the infobox is also unsourced- date of birth? Origin? How do we know?
*A personal life section could have its merits. People seem to make a fuss about his oriental heritage- that would be a good place to mention that, as well as his early life, and any relationships he might be in.
There, I hope I have given you a few things to work on or think about. J Milburn 17:51, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:MKH Signature Dean.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 this Wikipedia article 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 fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

message: # Marshall 1960BV cabs - Currently Used
# Mesa Boogie Roadster head and Rectifier cabs (used In March 2007-May 2007)
# Marshall JCM2000 DSL Heads (The Crusade)
# Marshall 1960BV Cabs (used in Ascendancy and The Crusade era; no longer used)
...so he doesn't use and does indeed use the 1960BV Cabs? I'm guessing the upper Marshall is not used, but don't know for sure so I won't go and change it. 
Edit: Or did he first use Marshall, switch to Rectifier and then back to Marshall? That'd seem most logical to me.212.213.90.10 21:27, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Is it worth mention that Matt has changed his vocal style during live performances? I see that his variation in guitars (6 string to 7 string) is worth it.
