Evaluating The Mars Volta Page

Donchingerzz (talk) 22:02, 28 February 2017 (UTC)This page on Mars Volta seems to be accurate as the authors have referenced and cited a variety of sources. With that being said, there is one quote on the page that seems to have been made up, or, the author just forgot to put the quotation in quotation marks. There is no bias language such as "the best" or "many believe" leading me to believe the article is written from a neutral standpoint.

But as we know…they are “the best” 2601:603:4940:D80:B157:29ED:EA50:B6CC (talk) 21:03, 31 May 2025 (UTC)
