MegaMan X5?

I'm just thinking someone should add something about the bosses in MegaMan X5 being named after band members somewhere in the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.210.101.3 (talk) 06:29, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

WikiProject Guns N' Roses

There was once an WikiProject centred around this page. There could be again! You may like to comment at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:WikiProject Guns N' Roses (2nd nomination). --SmokeyJoe (talk) 06:10, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

Best-selling debut album

Please don't change the information about that and get that clear. Yes, Appetite for Destruction is the best-selling debut album in the US, but worldwide it's still Alanis Morissette's Jagged Little Pill, which has sold 33 million copies. — Cannot (talk) 16:57, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

but Jagged Little Pill is Alanis Morissette's 3rd album, which is clearly different to a debut album... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.20.201.105 (talk) 21:19, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

Very Long Article

I've just bopped in here to look something up and I am astonished at the length of this article, mainly the section "The "New" Guns N' Roses, Chinese Democracy (2001-present) ". Is it necessary to document every single special concert appearance? Every bit of bad blood between the band members? Can it be broken down into smaller articles? Reduce detail? Subheadings? I haven't paid much attention to GNR in a while, don't want to step on any toes, could someone who's worked on this article do something to improve it? - Salamurai (talk) 08:15, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

I just made a very large edit removing much of the Tourcruft from the article. Still needs more editing and clean up though. Ridernyc (talk) 23:31, 17 September 2011 (UTC)

Glam Metal?

Guns N' Roses isn't glam metal. They're only hard rock and heavy metal. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.58.80.61 (talk • contribs) 18:30, 3 November 2011‎ (UTC) Heavy metal? No, they are quite certainly not a Heavy Metal band. "Welcome to the Jungle" is not a Heavy Metal song. You just need to watch the video of that song... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jenizaro (talk • contribs) 10:05, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

Guns N' Roses or g'n'r

--Halt 222 (talk) 13:42, 5 November 2011 (UTC)for what I know the Guns N' Roses brake up did happen and Axel made a new band g'n'r because Guns N' Roses is a merge of la guns and Hollywood roses so its basically just Hollywood roses now.

Lead image

The current lead image isn't very effective; it's just fireworks and confetti. A cropped version of this image would be much better, but I can't really tell who's who beyond Axl and Fortus. All all these people in the band? Prayer for the wild at heart (talk) 23:55, 2 December 2011 (UTC)

From left to right it's Reed, Bumblefoot, Fortus, Rose, Ashba, Pitman (I think) and I don't know who the guy on the end is. Doesn't look like Frank Ferrer. =\ HrZ (talk) 12:51, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

Suit guy is Dizzy? He's stylin' these days. Thanks. Prayer for the wild at heart (talk) 13:14, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

Had to double check, but yeah, I'm rpetty sure it's Dizzy! No problem. HrZ (talk) 13:30, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

There's confusion over whether the person furthest on the right is Tommy Stinson. Anyone care to weigh in? Prayer for the wild at heart (talk) 16:08, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

Splitting of "Guns N' Roses" article to "Guns N' Roses history"

I copied the "History" section of this page to Guns N' Roses history.--Jax 0677 (talk) 18:20, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

Pardon my bluntness, but this seems patently ridiculous. The history is the most important part of the article, and should account for something like 75% of the article's total content. If you feel the article is too long (which it isn't, particularly by FA standards), the history should be the last thing you think about splitting off. Lists of members, discographies, awards, and—as a last resort—influence are all things that can be spun off into separate articles. But the history? That is the article. Also, you didn't summarize anything when you performed the split, nor did you provide attribution to the source of the content in your edit summary. And most importantly, you didn't seek consensus for such a major change. Basically you performed a cut and paste move. Now this all needs to be undone manually. --IllaZilla (talk) 04:19, 14 December 2011 (UTC)

You wanna clean up of the UYI tour and Chinese D section

I'll be happy to do it for you :) but only if you want, they seem a bit long to me — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.103.195.34 (talk) 16:58, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

The Chinese Democracy section could definitely use some cleanup. But make an account first, so the (basically inactive) GnR wikiproject can keep track of your contributions. Also, there's no gurantee it will stick, but the better of a job you do... GrimmC (talk) 04:22, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
