Adding genres

I feel it is nessasary and would like to add genres like Space rock, Experimental rock, Electronic rock and New prog (Progressive rock) to this page as these are genres that are typical to Thirty Seconds To Mars. The band deserves to be noted with these genres on this page. I would really love to here any replies or opinions from others people who do or do not support this notion.

The text states "Thirty Seconds to Mars then moved to Universal Music and released the fourth album, Love, Lust, Faith and Dreams (2013), to critical and commercial success." It was not a critical success. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 62. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 164.64.74.12 (talk) 14:48, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Genres

Genres such as experimental rock, progressive rock and electronic rock should be added to the info box. These three genres are sourced in the musical style section. Alternative rock on it's own does not describe their sound very well. Having more than one genre in the info box is okay. Per Template:Infobox musical artist it is preferred to have 2-4 genres if there are that many genres applicable to the info box, which in Thirty Seconds to Mars' case there are.

Timeline

I am wondering why this page lacks in (band members) timeline? Every so often I see being one made it gets removed quickly. Just want to know why. 129.78.56.195 (talk) 23:19, 6 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have just recently created a timeline, listing all members. If for whatever reason if this page should not have a timeline, please feel free to discuss, instead of removing. ❂string DTD❂ 00:55, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Per policy, a timeline should include only the official members of a band and not the live personnel. This band has had a total of five members only, so there's really no need to have a timeline like that. The one created by stringDTD also gives some incorrect informations about the instruments played by the band members.--Earthh (talk) 18:40, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Band Name

The current text describes the band name as coming from a rare manuscript. That seems to be utter nonsense based on a quick Google search, which returns references to its being made-up. The Google hits that do refer to it all read like a Snopes example of urban myth: well there was some highly respected person, so a professor, at some famous place you have heard of, so Harvard, who had a manuscript but it was special and, umm, really rare so that's why only really privileged people know about it. The author is never named, the time period is never acknowledged, the central thesis or purpose is unlisted, the proposed title would be far too short for a scholarly work, and so on. (How in the world would a document from a modern college become a 'rare manuscript' with no documented copies?) Just because the notoriously unreliable Jaret Leto says it is real, does not make it so. Can someone fix this made-up, not-credibly-documented nonsense from propagating in Wikipedia? 24.224.227.214 (talk) 16:46, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is a chance that it is a reference to '30 seconds to Marshalls', the clothing store that sells other companies 'seconds'. 178.212.120.77 (talk) 15:00, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is or are

@209899Geovanni: This article's subject is an American band, and in American English collective nouns such as bands are treated as singular in regards to is/are, compared to the British English convention of treating them as plural in regards to is/are (see for example the American style guide MLA, Grammarly, and a Britannica "Ask the Editor" answer). This is reflected on Wikipedia, and seen in featured articles which go through a rigorous review process, such as the British band U2 (plural) and the American band Metallica (singular). Wikipedia has a Manual of Style that helps determine which variant of English to use, usually retaining the existing convention unless the subject has strong national ties that would warrant a change, but that should be done through consensus on the talk page first. As an American band this article's subject has no strong national ties to any countries that use British English, so the existing convention (American English) should be retained. If you believe the article should be changed, please use the talk page and obtain a consensus for those preferred changes before continuing to attempt to change the article further. Thank you. - Aoidh (talk) 05:06, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
