Any member of this site can edit a bands page, however there is a fairly long list because the moderators have to approve/ validate edits. You should get an email of it's approval.

Or send a report with the info that should be changed. Someone will eventually get to it.

Which band are you in?

What oogboog said. Make a report and someone who can will take care of it. And yes, your rank is too low for now. See here on how to gain points: http://www.metal-archives.com/content/help (under the tab "Ranks")

...uh, what? That post is... a bit off.

Well, actually everyone below the rank of Veteran can only add new data to empty fields. And beginning with Veteran, the extent to which existing data can be edited varies.

What list? Do you mean the report queue? Edits themselves are not run by moderator scrutiny, only reports are, i.e. requested edits.

Emails are sent to users who submit bands or reviews upon approval/rejection. Not edits/reports. In any case, po3metal said his band is already in the database, so he shouldn't submit it again.
