Arabian Prince
Yo man, sorry to say but Arabian Prince was a member of N.W.A. until 1988. Like 3 weeks ago I thought that he's not a member of N.W.A. but he is. I read some interviews so The D.O.C. said that he was, Eazy said that he was and Arabian Prince himself told that he was. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.50.197.51 (talk • contribs)

I just want to report you that your media has been speedy deleted because it was "corrupt" (as we previously discussed it above) on 18 January 2007. Please consider re-uploading it. I won't remove the dead links until then (or until your negative response). Thanks.  Lajbi  Holla @ me  08:47, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:EveOlution.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:EveOlution.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. When you use a generic fair use tag such as or , you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Yamla 21:55, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

The game
To pass GA the following
 * Expand the lead to two paragraphs to meet WP:LEAD
 * Regarding the images, the summary section should explain who's in the picture and when, with a source to the picture. The fair use rationale should be in a different section titled "fair use rationale"
 * Try have a reference for each paragraph
 * References are just URL's, need details such as publisher, last access date etc, check for more information
 * Minor, but alphabetize categories
 * Avoid using contractions like (outside of quotations): didn't, wasn't, doesn't.
 * it has been, apparently might be weasel words and should be re-worded unless a citation is provided
 * add WP:PDATA M3tal H3ad 03:18, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Why lock The Game
Why is 'The Game (rapper)' page locked for unregistered users and newly registered users? You seem to be the main editor of this page and I was wondering if you good give me a good reason for this as it seems unfair to other users.88.107.101.140 20:47, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Don't Stop Believing.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Don't Stop Believing.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

What Happened?
Where did the page on Juice go? Did it lack the requirements to be an article? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.116.188.77 Dazednconfused693 00:09, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Sorry about that, I didn't realize I wasn't logged in. So yeah, it got deleted..too bad. Do you know if Juice will ever release a single? Dazednconfused693 00:09, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I mean, living on the East Coast, not much about BWS comes my way, but so far the only person in BWS really doing anything is Game, and he's starting to slow down too. At least, over here he is.

Image:The_Game06.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:The_Game06.JPG. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add , without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria.

Section about The Game's feud with G-Unit
Hi, I know you edit that article more than anyone else probably, so I am going to ask your oppinion, because in a way you are responsible for the article. I think the section on his feud with G-Unit is a little bit too long, and maybe we should take some information out, since it is almost just as big as G-Unit vs. The Game feud. I await your response and please continue this discussion on the article's talk page. Thanks --- Efil4tselaer 22:08, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

G-Unit vs. The Game feud - Possible reconcile section
It seems as though the reconciliation will not happen any time soon because of Tony Yayo's idiotic attack on a 14-year old. Should we change the section now? Title could be "Failed reconciliation", and we can just edit the rest of the section. P.S. - I hope you don't mind, but I just left you a message on your talk page instead of leaving it on the article's talk page, since no one else actually edits that article except for you and I. --- Efil4tselaer 02:42, 4 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Take a look at the page please, I know there's still a few things that can be fixed, but it should still give you a pretty good idea about how the page should look like. --- Efil4tselaer 23:20, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Bishop Lamont
User Cleo123 is considering to nominate the article for deletion. See here. I guess I am responsible for bringing the article to the guy's attention, if you look at the discussion, it was because I tried to add information about Bishop Lamon't criticism of Richards in his song "Fukk Kramer Radio" from his mixtape N*gger Noize. I am willing to make an account again (this is Efil4tselaer, I used to edit hip-hop related articles on that account) to try and help add "add reliable sources to the article that establish notability", as Cleo123 said it. Although tomorrow I am busy, I think I can help you later. --- 72.142.212.28 01:15, 16 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Well, you see, I decided to quit Wikipedia so... well, I changed my password to something that I would not remember (actually... you are going to laugh, but I just typed in something random in the address bar, copy and pasted that into what I wanted to change my password to, and then I pasted it again where it said to confirm my new password). It didn't work, since I am still editing Wikipedia. I am going to ask Cleo123 as to what sources need to be added. However, I have good news, if you take a look the the Michael Richards talk page, you will see that another editor said that there is a very small chance of the article being deleted, thanks to Eminem and 50 Cent being on the same label. --- 72.142.212.28 19:55, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh yeah, I forgot to mention why I wanted to quit, it was because I felt that I was wasting too much of my time on Wikipedia. I guess I still am. --- 20:02, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

You might want to check out the message that Cleo123 left on my talk page. If we are going to convince this guy that the article is notable, it will take a lot of work. --- 01:08, 17 May 2007 (UTC)


 * "Bishop Lamont stated in an interview with WestCoastRydaz.com that after The Reformation and Detox, he will be working on The Impossible Possible which will be entirely produced by Dr. Dre and Scott Storch." - we need a reference for that. The person who added that forgot to provide a link to the interview. I went to the WestCoastRydaz.com website and searched the archives, found some interview with Bishop Lamont from 2006, however, the page didn't exist anymore. I found the quote in his MySpace blog, however, MySpace blog links are considered spam so I could not add it. We have to reference that, especially since it is a very useful piece of information, not every artist has his/her album completely produced by Dr. Dre and Scott Storch. --- 72.142.212.28 19:45, 17 May 2007 (UTC)


 * All right, thanks. --- 72.142.212.28 21:19, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

After you give the reference for Scott Storch and Dr. Dre entirely producing The Impossible Possible, can you get a reference for where it says that Dr. Dre was on the radio praising Bishop Lamont? --- 72.142.212.28 16:16, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Right now, I think there is no way he can nominate it for deletion, but I will still keep adding as many references to the article as I can, just in case. --- 72.142.212.28 17:09, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Cornrows
That would be interesting, but not the first time. The sister of the suicide I found, who I mention on my User page, contacted me to ask me why her brother killed himself (parents never spoke about it). A friend of my Starving artist contacted me to let me know how he was doing. I took the photo on the sidewalk of Lexington and 54th, by the Citicorp Center, on an unseasonably warm day several months ago. --David Shankbone 22:31, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

I made that same mistake before in commons. An admin there said images marked as NC (non-commercial) or ND (no derivatives) can't be accepted. Don't know if you have an account on commons, but this explains it pretty well. Spellcast 05:44, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

I haven't been on Wikipedia much, and since that move, I see that users are making "at least" some improvements on the hip-hop related articles.

I am glad that you holding it down, since I been gone. I come to Wikipedia, at least once in a while to work on articles that are more relevant. I leave all the articles related to 50 Cent, The Game and the numerous aformentioned groups to you and the rest. I am not going to waste time trying to dissect relavent from fan base fact. Anyways you remember that user who ruins articles with that bias. He placed more disputed images on Wikipedia. I hope that this user will try at least to keep a cool head when working with Wikipedia.

Image copyright problem with Image:Grimbold.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Grimbold.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. User:Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr) 01:15, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:Grimbold.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Grimbold.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 01:15, 11 June 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. User:Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr) 01:15, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Put an edit in; how's it look to you? - Arcayne   (cast a spell)  08:20, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I am not sure, but I think someone else might revert it. There were just a couple of issues that might trigger that, the first of which being spelling and grammar issues. The second issue - and you might have missed this, being new to the article - is us trying to keep the word count down.It was a serious issue before, and the source of a lot of contention. My edit was to bring what you wanted into the article while deflecting a lot of those issues away from yourself. What do you think? - Arcayne   (cast a spell)  08:47, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Ted, I have found that sometimes when a revert goes back and forth, you should take it up with that editor specifically, so as to avoid the appearance of a brewing edit-war. Talk to Erik - he is quite reasonable. - Arcayne   (cast a spell)  08:39, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi Ted, a quick question: Which of these 2 images in your opinion is better suited to the 50 Cent infobox, Image:50 cent retouched.png or Image:50-cent.jpg? I just want to get some concensus to avoid a possibly silly edit war. If you can send a quick reply at Talk:50 Cent, that'd be great. Thanks.

Redirect of Untold Story (Chopped And Screwed)
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Untold Story (Chopped And Screwed), by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Untold Story (Chopped And Screwed) is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1). To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Untold Story (Chopped And Screwed), please affix the template to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Fair use rationale for Image:I_Got_5_on_It.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:I_Got_5_on_It.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Alpta 20:28, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Trauma Instrumentals.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Trauma Instrumentals.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

West Coast hip hop WikiProject
Hi Ted, since you did a lot of work on The Game and helped bring him to GA status, I thought you might be interested in a proposed West Coast hip hop WikiProject. Cheers. Spellcast 00:42, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Ron Paul userbox
I hope you don't mind that I used your Ron Paul user box and put it on user page. I didn't like the other one with the green background. Thanks. --Zimbabweed 05:46, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Don't Stop Rappin'.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid.

Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
