Machine Head discography
Self-nom I worked on this for a short time. Short discography. Any comments are welcome. Burningclean [speak]  20:18, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Comments:
 * Did their singles chart anywhere?
 * No they didn't. I added a note in the lead.
 * Videos --> Video albums
 * Maybe added catalog numbers?
 * Mvdbase.com is not recognized as a reliable website because it is user generated
 * I found another source for "Take My Scars", but I can't find anything for "Davidian". What do you suggest I do?
 * Did any of the song's single formats feature an enhanced section with the music video? Almost all of the time the credits will contain information on who directed the video -- Underneath-it-All (talk) 00:07, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Niether of those songs are enhanced singles. The only enhanced CD single thay have is "Crashing Around You". Otherwise some of the CDs are enhanced but Burn My Eyes-Supercharger are not. Burningclean  [speak]  03:09, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Specify which chart is being used in the Videos section
 * Add a note to the studio albums section which explains to the reader what the dashes mean

Comments I would like to give you my support, but I can not because they are missing references to the directors of videos. Cannibaloki 16:42, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment According to the group's bio on their official website, their live DVD also went to #4 on the UK charts. Can you find out which chart this was with the use of a reliable source, and add it to the discography? Thanks.LuciferMorgan (talk) 03:24, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Is there something somebody suggests I do with the videos because I can't find direcotrs? Should I take them off the list, remove the directors name? Burningclean  [speak]  18:05, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Comments
 * What makes the following reliable sources?
 * http://www.hardradio.com/metalmama/machinehead.html
 * Should we be linking to http://www.clipland.com/Summary/944437527/? We're not supposed to link to copyright violations.
 * Ya, I'm not sure about the Clip Land link either. -- Underneath-it-All (talk) 15:39, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Why is Hardradio suspicious? I really don't know what to do about the directors. Does anyone have any suggestions? I can agree with the clipland one. Burningclean  [speak]  17:27, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * To determine the reliablity of the site, we need to know what sort of fact checking they do. You can establish this by showing news articles that say the site is reliable/noteworthy/etc. or you can show a page on the site that gives their rules for submissions/etc. or you can show they are backed by a media company/university/institute, or you can show that the website gives its sources and methods, or there are some other ways that would work too. It's their reputation for reliabilty that needs to be demonstrated. Please see Wikipedia Signpost/2008-06-26/Dispatches for further detailed information. Note that given the context on Hardradio and the information it's supporting, I'd call this on the fence. If it was a non-internet radio station, it'd be no question, but it is internet only, and that causes some problems. On the other hand, it's a long standing internet radio station, so that helps. This one is more of a "note for other reviewers" than a "it's got to go" type thing. Ealdgyth - Talk 18:33, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Are you for sure it is an internet only radio? That interview was in the mid-nineties, when the internet wasn't nearly as popular. Burningclean  [speak]  19:02, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * "The World's First .com Internet Only Radio Station Online Since 1995." is right there at the bottom. Like I said, it's borderline in my mind. Would depend on what's being cited to it (and as this is FLC and it's a discography, that's nothing terribly contentious.). Ealdgyth - Talk 21:13, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Otherwise sources look good, links checked out with the link checker tool. I wasn't able to evaluate the non-English sources. Ealdgyth - Talk 15:21, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
