Unencyclopedic Writing

This article (particularly the introduction to Megadeth, but there are more) is unprofessionally written. Though I don't have all the references myself to rewrite it, I urge the original author to redo it. I mean no offence by this, but if you don't believe me, just re-read it.

I added a bit from an interview with HM. IronCrow (talk) 04:17, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Megalife?

Someone's written that David now plays with a band named Megalife! This is obviously a joke so I have removed ot. If it's true then sorry... I doubt it though. 88.107.62.106 (talk) 04:08, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

He is also playing in a band called "Hail!" along with DeGrasso, Ripper Owens and Andreas Kisser. They've just finished a tour in South America (I attended their gig in Puerto Montt a couple of hours ago) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.95.73.95 (talk) 05:14, 26 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Feud with Mustaine

The last sentence of the first paragraph under Feud with Dave Mustaine should be removed or updated. Per Ellefson's website bio he now writes, "Internationally acclaimed as former MEGADETH bassist, David's work has garnered him..." Therefore, the current statement on wikipedia is invalid. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Saulas (talk • contribs) 19:02, 30 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Biography in general

This whole article to me seems to be way too PoV-ish. "...Towards the end of his Megadeth career, Ellefson was not getting some of his material played for the band, which angered him.." is a perfect example. I think it needs to be cleaned up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.144.179.34 (talk) 23:47, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

ummmm

acording to megadeth's page, megadeth is heavy metal speed metal thrash metal, and hard rock (which i believe is false)yet here it says he only playss heavy metal, speed metal, and thrash metal. is this or megadeth's article wrong? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.253.91.208 (talk) 19:51, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Unnecessary info

Yes, it's true and sourced that Ellefson has officially rejoined Megadeth as its bassist, but is it necessary to mention this four times in the article, verifying three of them all of which are written differently? Anyway, I'll volunteer to make these changes. JRC3 (talk) 17:10, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
