I think it's a great inclusion.
To my ears, "Master of Puppets" and "...And justice for All", complex and dynamic as they are, are prog metal albums, and "Ride the Lightening" and "Death Magnetic" are certainly worthy of being considered proggy too. Besides, Metallica have doubtlessly been an inspiration to many prog metal bands around these days.

Metallica is a great metal band but they have influenced some of the Progbands.

^ Metallica is in ProgRelated which means they were influenced by, or have a musical connection to, prog rock. ProgRelated artists don't have to have been an influence on other bands, though in Metallica's case they certainly influenced many metal and Progmetal bands.

For the last 2 years I supported barely anything that this site has done.

I would say it's good, if only for the endless influence they have on progressive metal. Plus they do have some progressive moments.
