in his 4 out of 5 stars review of the album --> Not important for the lead.
- Done. REZTER ^TALK ø 23:29, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I changed it in the infobox and first sentence, but the correct term of a mini album is an EP. This should be adjusted throughout the article.
- I disagree and that's not just my opinion or original research. By definition an EP is (and I quote):

"In the United Kingdom, any record with more than four distinct tracks or with a playing time of more than 25 minutes is classified as an album for sales-chart purposes."

This album has at least 5... 6 if you include "The Truth" and 7 if you include "Be(lie)ve".

Also the band and all media sources refer to it as a "Mini-album" not an "EP".... They are two different things. REZTER ^TALK ø 23:29, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

According to the liner notes of the mini-album --> No need to state this. It's not a personal opinion; it's a fact.
- Done. REZTER ^TALK ø 23:29, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think "barn" needs to be linked; it's something that everybody would know what it is.
- Done. REZTER ^TALK ø 23:29, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Featuring technical guitar picking, big riffs, heavy bass lines, crashing drums and screaming vocals. --> This isn't a proper sentence.
- Done. REZTER ^TALK ø 23:29, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
You don't need to source the music video. Synopsis' are self-written.
- Done. REZTER ^TALK ø 23:29, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Deluxe edition only --> Deluxe edition bonus track. Also include the total length for the deluxe edition.
- Done. REZTER ^TALK ø 23:29, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Release history table --> This should be sourced, although it is previously stated in the article.
- Done. REZTER ^TALK ø 23:29, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
A few problems with the refs. Allmusic, for example, is missing a publisher - which is Rovi Corporation. The work of ref 12 should be iTunes Store, and the publisher is Apple, Inc. Check the other refs to make sure they are correct.
- I made some changes per your comments. Hope everything is OK, now. REZTER ^TALK ø 23:40, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Issues have been addressed. I am content in passing the article. Statυs (talk) 23:58, 23 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Genre

While She Sleeps is a metallic hardcore band, not metalcore. And since references say so, stop changing the genres as you please. [1][2][3][4][5][6]
