Controversial song?[edit]

someone needs to put a link of the lyrics of her cotnroversial song. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.158.13.120 (talk • contribs) 21:43, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

{{inappropriate tone}}[edit]

"...with a B.A. in being racist?" Yeah, that's clever, but it's not encyclopedic. Anthony Rupert 20:13, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with most of the comments about the hypocrisy and racist tone odf the subject ion question, but the article is not at all written from an NPOV. It's an editorial. It can make its points without saying stuff like " On January 18, 2005, Jones twice aired the song ridiculing victims of the recent tsunami disaster in Indonesia nearly one month earlier. She had the balls to ridicule Don Imus for his remarks about 10 Rutgers basketball players, after making a song making light of the biggest natural disaster ever seen by humans, killing nearly 300,000 people." "She had the balls" is not encyclopedic format. Someone needs to revise this. --— Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.119.129.16 (talk • contribs) 15:24, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Didnt she sing the song with AZ(rapper) sugar hill? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.23.234.9 (talk • contribs) 15:14, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

material removed[edit]

i think this entire article should be deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.221.20.34 (talk) 17:06, 15 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed material from this article that does not comply with our policy on the biographies of living persons. Biographical material must always be referenced from reliable sources, especially negative material. Negative material that does not comply with that must be immediately removed. Note that the removal does not imply that the information is either true or false.

Please do not reinsert this material unless you can provide reliable citations, and can ensure it is written in a neutral tone. Please review the relevant policies before editing in this regard. Editors should note that failure to follow this policy may result in the removal of editing privileges.--Scott MacDonald (talk) 21:14, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Blanking?[edit]

An IP just blanked out most of the article, leaving only the lead and a few infoboxes. Is there a reason to blank most of the info, or should this be undone? 71.231.76.242 (talk) 07:30, 13 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Moved as proposed, without opposition to the proposal. bd2412 T 04:22, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Miss Jones → Miss Jones (radio personality) – Miss Jones needs to be turned into a dab page. I was, suffice to say, very surprised to land on this article, having casually typed in "Miss Jones" after listening to a rather well-known classic. Given the amount of articles received searching All pages with titles containing Miss Jones, it's how to understand why some rather obscure radio personality is the perceived WP:PTOPIC. Furthermore, a Mrs Jones dab exists, so maybe Miss Jones could redirect there (alongside the other "Miss Jones"es). --Nevé –selbert 02:25, 27 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support Miss Jones and Son etc. There is no absolute topic for such a common appellation. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:49, 27 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support creation of a dab page. No obvious primary topic. — JFG ^talk 11:44, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
