Holy Wood (In the Shadow of the Valley of Death)

 * Nominator(s): Red marquis (talk) 04:57, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured article because after leaving the article alone for a few years, I had found the time to perform much needed suggested pruning and general cleaning up. Also, the article has just completed a copyedit from the guild. It's ready for the final march... the final funeral death march, that is! (rofl) Red marquis (talk) 04:57, 1 September 2013 (UTC)


 * There's a lot of POV and conjecture in this article - original research technically. For example, one sentence says "Instead, they opted to use quiet web updates on their website while they worked on the record." Where does the source itself say Manson used "quiet" updates? Another from the same paragraph: "The band elected not to utilize the considerable marketing tools that a major label act has at their disposal early on." Says who? Not all bands signed to a major label have "considerable marketing tools" etc. This is more conjecture, and another thing which isn't supported by a citation.

 * Suggest withdrawal - That's 18 days now without the nominator active on-Wiki, suggesting that any review will go to waste. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:55, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
