Justice for Johnny and Zack
editI think that since Shadows, Syn, Brooks, and many past members of the band have their own articles, I think that it’s time for Johnny and Zack to have their own pages as well, especially considering how long the two have been in the band for.
Unfortunately, I do not have the willpower or knowledge to create the page(s) on my own, but if someone else is considering of creating them, I would highly encourage it. Thanks. 2600:1010:B1A8:EFF:9CBD:71B5:BF96:B7BD (talk) 03:06, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

The part "In September, Dameon Ash left Avenged Sevenfold..." can be changed to "In September, Dameon Ash left the band. They played their first show with current bassist Johnny Christ in Tuscon, Arizona on September 23rd, completing their best known line-up." Maybe it's not THAT necessary but why not add it

Not done: The exact date and location of the 1st show with Christ isn't important enough to mention in the article. Day Creature (talk) 20:41, 3 July 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I would like to submit some new info regarding Avenged Sevenfold. It has been reported that the band has become fully independent in 2026 and has brought back the rights to their 2016 album The Stage and the 2017 Live Album Live At the Grammy Museum. This information is important for the band moving forward.

singles
editcan we add a category for singles and songs there featured on such as candy dopamine Vincethechad (talk) 03:29, 13 June 2026 (UTC)
- That would be included in discography, or discography of the featured artist. For example, “Love you moar” would be featured under the discography section of Pussy Riot. SanchoInAPancho (talk) 03:34, 13 June 2026 (UTC)
