Electric Wizard is currently Active however apparently they have changed their name 3 times before sticking with Electric Wizard and none of those prior names nor the 7 demos and 2 splits under the various names are listed on Electric Wizards page...

Will look into that after the chaos in my house subsides.

Probably a couple hours from now.

K. I figured you would want to check into it before it gets changed/fucked up so I haven't started changing anything yet but if you deem it be and don't feel like fuckin' with all the additions then let me know and I'll git 'r' done...

Troy can you change Theatres Des Vampires to Theatres Des Vampires? When you go to their official site and look at the Tab in the internet browser they have it spelled with des not Des.

No, because the rest of the Staff don't like it that way. I keep album and song titles like that (grammatically correct in their respect languages) but I'm not allowed changing band names.

Already tried with Mar de Grises. It was pointed out immediately.

That's so retarded. Oh well, I suppose I should've expected as much...

The new band addition Juvaliant has last.fm as one of the links which I guess should not be there since its unofficial. Please look into it as you said earlier that last.fm can't be accepted. Thanks!

The Mörk Gryning band should at least be tagged as Melodic Black Death metal from 1993 to 1997.

The band Darkwoods My Betrothed has some members with their pseudonyms only (Magician,Icelord). I guess bands must have members with full names in order to be active. Not only that, it also creates multiple profiles for the same member(The pseudonym 'Larha' added here as drummer is same member as Kassara Rytkönen in another band). But it can't be edited to Kassara "larha" Rytkönen as this member has used this pseudonym for this particular band only. Please kindly look into it. Thanks!

I understood up until this point. What do you mean exactly?

PS we don't require full names for bands to be made visible

I think maybe he's meaning to ask that since that pseudonym was only used on one specific occasion it should or shouldn't it be added to the musician profile as a pseudonym and then the Larha musician profile be deleted because the 2 musicians are one in the same and in it's current setup there are 2 different profiles for the same musician. Get it now?

I think to do that correctly, the tour should be edited, and only users with such a permission can edit them. I think adding single events won't work.

Well if I am trying to add multiple dates yes, because I have the Perm I would go in and edit the full tour. However, for future reference, there is a way for regular users to get extra dates added to a tour. What you need to do is submit the dates as individual Events, then let me know in the comments field that the date(s) need to be linked and I'll link up them to the main tour. Also make sure you give each of the individual events the same exact Title as the tour that is already here on MS. However I understand that in certain circumstances there may be a whole lot of new dates added to a tour that will take entirely too long (and be a pain in the ass to add that many individual events) to create individual events for, and in those cases if you want to you can either PM me a link to the additional tour dates that need to be added or you can create a single event for one of the new dates and then just include the link to the additional tour dates and also write in the comments that there are a bunch more dates that need to be added as well and then I don't have any issue adding them in the quicker way for ya.

Torchbearer member Tomas "Plec" Johansson is featured as Tomas Johansson in Unmoored and Ceremonial Oath. Makes up two different profiles for the same member. I would have edited this but it would get messy as eventually I've to delete one and that would be submitted to you anyway. Kindly look into it. Thanks!

It's not really a mistake so I don't know if I write on the good section, but I failed.

I have created the this festival (http://www.metalstorm.net/events/event.php?event_id=70764) but this date is already a tour date for 2 bands (http://www.metalstorm.net/events/event.php?event_id=69414). So one should be deleted

Fixed. I deleted your event then modified the original (on the tour) with the basic info about the fest and added the fest flyer. If you could go in and add the smaller details about the fest that would be much appreciated (since I don't speak French, lol).

P.S. There is no thread to post these kinds of things. You have the Perm so technically you could've deleted your event and modified the original the same way I did but since you were unfamiliar with how to go about it I went on ahead and did it for you and explained what I did so you would have an example for next time. If you ever have any other questions in regards to adding/editing events don't hesitate to PM about it and I'll answer you asap.
