[edit] Stupid remarks about The Tooper
It is you who is stupid, if the trooper was that popular in the rest of the world there will be The Trooper pages on each and every wikipedia!!! The truth is the Trooper article only exist on the english and french pages and the main reason is what i believe. There's particular relationship with this song on the countries i've mentioned. In America, the mighty Allmusic.com has rated all Maiden tracks from shit to average, except one. The exception being "Run to the hills" which is about America's History.................. and yes the British Light Brigade was saved from complete destruction by the Fench this an historical fact!

[edit] Category:Iron Maiden
Hi Tokus. Please do not add individual songs to Category:Iron Maiden. The purpose of Category:Iron Maiden songs is to subcategorize the songs so that they do not clutter the top-level category. Thanks. ×Meegs 09:27, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Live albums by Iron Maiden
Well, I came to 9 with Live After Death, A Real Live One, A Real Dead One, Live at Donington, A Real Live Dead One, Rock in Rio, Beast Over Hammersmith, The BBC Archives and Death on the Road. But I do agree with you that A Real Live Dead One is more like a compilation. But Beast Over Hammersmith and The BBC Archives are still live albums even though they are included in a box set. — Prodigenous Zee - 15:01, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Tours titles are not put in italics
Take a look :

- #Songs and singles are in quotes. Albums and EPs in italics. The names of tours are not formatted beyond ordinary capitalization.
[edit] Queensryche
Hello - I noticed you added a few singles to the QR template - do you intend to create the articles for those songs? Thanks. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 13:28, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Something about your editor is broken
I had to revert the edits you made to September 22, September 23, and September 24. Something about the way you edited them destroyed most of the language tags. Are you possibly using an external editor that doesn't understand non-European languages? -- Jim Douglas 08:06, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
- Hm, thanks for letting me know. Yes, I copy the text into UltraEdit, but that uses the normal ascii set, and apparently the wikipedia editor doesn't. Tokus 08:45, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] consening a matter of life and death
from Wrathteen ok i understand what you saying but back in the day iron until the Brave New World album all of the albums where just heavy metal brave new world, dance of death, and a matter of life and death albums are NWOBHM trust me ive done my research
http://www.KeithandTheGirl.com/ <==they are funny download from iTunes
- No they sound nothing like NWOBHM. Only the first 2 or 3 albums are considered NWOBHM, after that, it's not. If you did any research, you would have heard that. Tokus 11:19, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Concerning Invasion of Rarities
Where did you find out it was an unofficial release? Because if it was unofficial, then why does it have an article on Wikipedia? I find that illogical, and a week ago, it was listed as a Maiden album officially in that box on the Iron Maiden page, it was listed under Other: Invasion of Rarities. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 4.154.243.73 (talk) 21:40, 16 December 2006 (UTC).
- common knowledge amongst Maiden fans. They tend to know which are official albums. I've been a fan for 18 years, and a collector for nearly as long, so I know what's official and what's not. And I can assure you, this one definately is not an official release. Having an article on wikipedia doesn't mean it's an official release. Everyone can add stuff to this site. Try searching for it on www.ironmaiden.com or www.maidenfans.com Tokus 22:35, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:IronMaidenDifferentWorld7inch.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:IronMaidenDifferentWorld7inch.jpg.
