Megadeth discography
The early work done on this list was made by Burningclean. Later I improved, until reach here. I had a type of deal with Burningclean, was to be he nominating this list (or a co-nom between us), but he nearly left wiki or in a vacant period, I don't known. Now this work is better and waiting for your comments, that's all. Regards, Canniba  loki  03:40, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

I haven't been on for a while, but if there's work to be done, I'll help. If the nom goes to Cannibaloki that's fine, but I'll help with it. We had a deal, I just haven't been on much for a while, but I'll do work that's needed. Sorry about that. Burningclean [speak]  20:53, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Oppose for now The prose needs work: I can't understand the sentence "Throughout Megadeth's many lineup changes, they toured and gained a following, signing with the independent label Combat Records in late 1984." Reading further on "Their major hit, is the single "Symphony of Destruction", which peaked at number 71 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, as well as, the top 15 in Ireland and UK." is rather grammatically incorrect as well.

Also, instead of writing out entire sentences just to describe which year an album was released, you could just put the year in brackets and convey the same meaning with fewer words. For eg: "Megadeth's sixth album Youthanasia (1994) was a commercial success." Please find somebody to look through the text and I will be happy to strike my oppose. indopug (talk) 10:26, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I sifted through the text a bit; most of what needed copy-editing was added after I had reviewed the article. Dabomb87 (talk) 15:10, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
