Making of

The videos aren't available anymore. But I've them on my YouTube-channel. Am I allowed to put links to the videos at the end of this article? Seelentau (talk) 22:51, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely yes. (EternalLies (talk) 04:45, 19 April 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Grammatical errors

I've been working on this article since day one I created it. My only problem is English is not my first language. So I believe that there are a couple of grammatical errors here and there. Anyone care to help fix those errors? EternalLies (talk) 04:50, 19 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cryin' Like A Bitch!!

On the back cover it says Cryin' Like A Bitch!!, including the two ! Seelentau (talk) 15:35, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't care about the single's cover. If you have their CD, then take a look at the track listing located on the back cover, you will clearly see that the two ! are NOT included. EternalLies 22:56, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

I have their CD and that's why I'm 100% sure that the two ! ARE included. I'm not blind, u know? I can clearly see them, right before my very own eyes. It says 1. CRYIN' LIKE A BITCH!! and nothing else. Seelentau (talk) 11:46, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Here's a picture of my back cover as a proof. Despite the bad quality you can see the two ! Seelentau (talk) 11:53, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I do see the two !. However, here is a picture of my back cover that clearly shows that the two ! are not included. CLICK HERE (EternalLies 19:50, 7 June 2010 (UTC)).

I see, yours is the censored version, huh? Since I live in Germany, I don't have such censors. But I wonder why even the ! aren't on your back cover. So, which version do we use? Yours or mine? Seelentau (talk) 20:02, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's not really a censored version, it's just the text being censored, the song itself is perfectly fine. No beeps every time Sully says bitch. Haha. Anyways, seeing that Godsmack is an American band, I think we should go with the American version of the CD.(EternalLies 20:07, 7 June 2010 (UTC))

So it IS censored ;P But when we go with the American version, shouldn't we change the title of the song, too? Seelentau (talk) 20:18, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Haha. I don't know, but I think Wikipedia shouldn't be censored... EternalLies 20:25, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

That would be wrong, yes. But if we don't censor the bitch, we should write the two ! too, since they're apparently part of the censorship Seelentau (talk) 12:07, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You know what, just leave it the way it is, it won't make much difference. EternalLies 09:16, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned references in The Oracle (album)

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of The Oracle (album)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "RIAA":

From List of music recording certifications: "RIAA - Recording Industry Association of America". Recording Industry Association of America. Retrieved 2008-05-26.
From Hard rock: "RIAA Certifications". Recording Industry Association of America. Retrieved 16 January 2010.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 21:20, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
