<bigcenter>== '''MediaWiki has been successfully installed.Welcome to the ''Ultimate'' Extreme Metal Band Wiki!'''==</bigcenter>Our goal is to have the most comprehensive Metal Band archive, period. There are tons of great bands that go unnoticed in other wiki's due to outrageous stipulations. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(music)#Criteria_for_musicians_and_ensembles ''Like here!'']
Consult the [http://meta'''''Purely ridiculous..wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents User's Guide] for information on using the wiki software.''''
== Getting started ==Alot of really good bands do not qualify due to 1 or more of those ''guidelines'', so they are penalized. And on ''another snobbish Wiki'', it's editors can be real pricks about their ''suggest guidelines for acceptance'' to their precious Wiki. Why? Well, not here. Granted, we are not out to be a '''''local band repository''''', but if a band is good and noteworthy, they should be known. Since this is a genre specific music Wiki, we will be able to offer the best in detail information about these great bands. In other words, because all of out contributors absolutely love metal, there will be no conflicts of interest here. * ::''I.E., (1) some hip hop buffoon that hates all but [[httphip hop|hip hop]], and feels that '''Thrash Band X''' has no place in ''their'' Wiki, cause they ain't dope crack dealer thugs like Fitty, and cites the page due to the'' '''''suggest guidelines for acceptance'''''. ://www:''Or, (2), some Julliard snob cites that "Metal" is not a real form of music because they feel it is technically inferior to ''their'' standards'' ''and suggested the article for deletion''.mediawiki They will not be here, so there will be none of their filibustering clogging up the pipes of progress, because the only music that matters here is metal.org '''Stuff to see:''' <!---::* [[SA_SANCTUARY_Band_Members|List of SA SANCTUARY Band Members]], past and present.::* [[SA_SANCTUARY_Albums|SA SANCTUARY CD's]]::* [[Past_Tours|Past Tours]]::* [[Live_Shows| SA SANCTUARY Live]]::*[[SA_SANCTUARY_Fan_Wiki:Community_Portal|Links page]] <i>(Community Portal)</wiki/Manuali>---> ::*[[The_Complete_Metal_Bands_Wiki:Configuration_settings Configuration settings listAbout|Rules around here]] ::* [http[Local_bands|"Local Bands"]] ''(unsigned or '''NOT''' on a '''MAJOR''' label)'' ://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:FAQ MediaWiki FAQ*[[Criteria|Criteria]] ''('''our''' definition of metal)'' ::* [https[All_Bands|List of ALL bands in this Wiki]] ::*[[Special:Allpages|All pages here]] ---- What you will find here is a number of our favorite metal bands.
