Talk:Bizzy Bone

Nicaraguan?
Is Bizzy Bone of Nicaraguan descent? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.253.191.215 (talk) 08:45, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

I did some cleanup and added a lot
Can someone help me provide the right sources for the America's Most Wanted paragraphs? The paragraphs I added were in an interview on AMW, so would I need to cite my sources other than that? Still kinda new to editing wiki articles.

There needs to be more info added to Bizzys page. More info about what he did with Bone Thugs and some info about his solo albums and his career with 7th Sign and his reunion with Bone Thugs N Harmony. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.242.9.226 (talk) 19:57, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

"History"
If he was born in 1972 and he had his first child in age of 14( in year 1990) and his child is now 18?? That ain't right!! come on!!

someone should add information about what he went through during his childhood. cuz thats wat we wanna know too

he was born in 1976 not 92. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.195.97.215 (talk) 03:47, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

I just did a bunch of cleanup - this article was kind of a mess, lots of grammatical errors and unencyclopedic phrasing. Mostly I just reworded some stuff and swapped around the order of some information. 207.67.97.117 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 18:02, 23 October 2009 (UTC).

 * Agreed. And reverted. -Incognito9810 12:50, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Jew?
Since when is Bizzy a jew? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.217.165.174 (talk) 19:03, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

he isnt. one of his parents were jewish. —Preceding 99.166.3.139 (talk) 23:39, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

NO HE IS NOT JEWISH AND NEITHER IS ONE OF HIS PARENTS —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.197.229.96 (talk) 18:17, 28 December 2007 (UTC)


 * For the purposes of wikipedia, we can say he is a Jew when we have a reliable source saying he is. Otherwise, we have nothing to say. - Mdsummermsw (talk) 17:33, 17 January 2008 (UTC)


 * His mother was Jewish. Therefore, he is 100% Jewish according to Jewish law. - IronLion10 (talk) 18:51, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

WP:BLP
This article is a biography of a living person. Per policy, we need cite reliable sources for any controversial or potentially controversial claims. We don't have that.

Saying, "...during an interview with MTV.com..." is not citing a reliable source. Nor is "...a botched radio interview on Houston's KPFT show 'Damage Control'...". etc.

Also, there's a whole lot of unsourced POV.

I'm making a whole lot of edits right now to remove both. If you aren't sure whether a particular claim was removed as an unsourced violation of WP:BLP, unsourced WP:POV or both, simply re-add it with a source. Mdsummermsw (talk) 17:41, 17 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Adding a hidden comment "No direct source, but it was revealed on the America's Most Wanted TV Show" isn't citing a reliable source either. - Mdsummermsw (talk) 17:45, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Oops
I accidentally reverted a prior edit and have now reverted that mistake. - Mdsummermsw (talk) 12:56, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Category?
Can someone tell me why Bizzy Bone is in the Kidnapped Children category? I can't find any reason for this in the article. 89.100.242.161 (talk) 23:09, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Under References, there is a link for "Bone Thugs' Bizzy Bone Discusses Being Kidnapped At Age 4". - Mdsummermsw (talk) 17:36, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

Schizophrenia?
Bizzy is listed under the category of 'people with schizophrenia.' I cannot find any link supporting this claim. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.119.67.199 (talk) 09:37, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Personal Life
This whole section seems dubious, with no external refs, though I'm uninformed in this area. Any experts? If not, I'll remove the paragraph. justinfr (talk) 00:52, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Personal life and schizophrenia
here's the stuff about his personal life http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=3VB2JSIKmho and as for schizophrenia, anyone who really knows his music will know that, he talks about it in thugz cry and his non-single from the gift 'schizophrenic' —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bully25 (talk • contribs) 23:15, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Thank you. — tk tk  tk  20:48, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

New 2010 Rock Album
Thank you tkfor informing me about the guidelines. I didn't even know Wiki let editors communicate like this. Feel free to edit any of my changes, I didn't realize I was projecting personal opinions. Anyway, Bizzy is currently in studio working on a new album to be released in 2010 I but I can't find a reliable source so if someone could add that that'd be cool thanks. Also I am removing any POV style writing I added. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Borinquen252 (talk • contribs) 12:28, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

Age mistake
The article says he was born in 1976, yet the first sentence in the "Early life" section says "In 1981, at the age of 3". Either this should be "1979", "age of 5", or his birthday is wrong? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.168.115.149 (talk) 17:54, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, that changed in the meantime: now it says "born 1976" and then "1980, at the age of 7". --AnnaS. (talk) 07:31, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

Associated Acts
Acts section might need to be updated a tad bit more. I know he did a act with I See Stars in the song 'Sing This' off the album 3-D. It is in their page, but not here.
