Censored
I think the f word should be sencored. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 216.96.118.208 (talk) 19:53, 8 December 2006 (UTC).

The word you're looking for in "censored" and it IS the songs name anyway. Superorange 02:42, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Webrats agreed it is the true name of the song i recommend the word fuck be put back in or at least f*@@

I really don't think people need to know that some words in the song are censored. There's no page on Wikipedia devoted to telling the reader about the history of censorship in songs like the Notorious B.I.G.'s "Fuck You Tonight." Why should this song be special?

The true name of the song is "I Wanna Fuck You." Since Wikipedia is not censored, the title of the article should be changed. Academic decathlete 20:57, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

edited, wikipedia is not censored and the original name of the song should be the one used in the title. I edited the article parts but I can't edit the title name. Youlookadopted 07:30, 8 October 2007 (UTC)


 * It's true wikipedia's not censored, but the name the song goes by has the word love. I think Akon's annoying and this song too, but obviously my opinion has nothing to do with it. However, I'm not changing it because I'm not sure how to include the real lyrics. Bardiak (talk) 06:08, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

The title of the article is the title of the single, which the single is the censored version of the song, which the single cover shows the title as "I Wanna Love You", so leave the title of the article the way it is-SCB &#39;92 (talk) 12:13, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Similarity to Ride Wit Me
Anyone notice the lyrics "Cuz I'm lovin the way you shake your ass, bouncin', got me tippin' my glass, normally dont get caught up to fast but I got a thing for you," are similiar to these lyrics from Ride Wit Me by Nelly: "I like the way you brush your hair, and I like those stylish clothes you wear, I like the way the light hit the ice and glare, and I can see you boo from way over there."

 * There is a slight adaptation, yes. But no copyvio, though.--Tdxiang 10:05, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

About Snoop Dogg & Plies
The article has a convoluted story about how Snoop Dogg rather than Plies ended up recording the single with Akon. This story is not cited. And it it doesn't make much sense. In particular, the claim that Plies was taken off the single merely because of bad publicity after an unfortunate incident in Gainesville, Florida seems nonsensical. Snoop Dogg has been in much more trouble over the years than Plies, and he has had more than his share of bad press. It seems more likely that Snoop ended on the record simply because he was more popular (and perhaps, gave a better performance.) I will just give the story a "" for now.Timothy Horrigan (talk) 00:51, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

Requested move 1
moved to I Wanna Love You (Akon song). --RegentsPark (talk) 13:33, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

I Wanna Fuck You → — The redirect should be the other way around because although the album version does say "I wanna fuck you", the song is still called "I Wanna Love You". Erpert (let's talk about it) 19:25, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Move to I Wanna Love You (Akon song) - Further disambiguation is needed since there is also a song I Wanna Love You. Also, the cut and paste move of 2 December 2006, needs fixing. Bridgeplayer (talk) 20:24, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment Would support a  move to I Wanna Love You (Akon song).  Perhaps an idea to move I Wanna Love You to I Wanna Love You (Jade song) as the Akon offering probably has a greater claim to being the prime topic based on international chart performance.  Skinsmoke (talk) 05:54, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - there is also I Wanna Love You Forever so after the Jade move then a dmb page could usefully be created? Bridgeplayer (talk) 22:29, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment Possibly, or deal with by using hatnotes might be better.  Skinsmoke (talk) 02:37, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

Requested move 2

 * The following discussion is closed. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.

I Wanna Love You (Konvicted) → I Wanna Love You (Akon song) – This has been moved to disambiguate by album name, when it should be artist. This is to reverse a move made yesterday. Richhoncho (talk) 17:18, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I reverted it, as it's uncommon to use the album title for disambiguation. The only reason I could see for using it would be in case Akon releases another song called "I Wanna Love You" on another album, which I suspect is quite unlikely. --The Evil IP address (talk) 11:20, 7 January 2012 (UTC)

– When there is an explicit version, usually the explicit word is used in the title. 68.44.51.49 (talk) 02:41, 12 May 2013 (UTC) 68.44.51.49 (talk) 02:41, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I Wanna Love You (Akon song) → I Wanna Fuck You
 * I Wanna Love You (Jade song) → I Wanna Love You
 * Oppose Amazon single cover shows I Wanna Love You. Also oppose 2nd move as counter WP:AT and WP:DAB. In ictu oculi (talk) 04:39, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Support/Oppose Oppose ambgiuous disambiguation is a bad idea, and this one is very bad indeed, since this song is already known by that title and the other song by Jade shares it, so moving off is very ambiguous. Moving this to the more explicit title is fine by me. -- 65.94.76.126 (talk) 23:36, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Oppose renaming Jade song per WP:precision. Neutral on Akon song; anybody remember "Short Dick Man" (or "Short Short Man")? --George Ho (talk) 16:33, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
