I reverted your most recent edit (which reverted the tabled track listing I produced) and herein lies my reasoning: While there are no specific guidelines as to how a track listing should be structured, WikiProject albums recommends a table for albums where there are multiple writers/producers ( hip hop albums generally), citing Illmatic as an example. If you look at the highest class hip hop albums, like Illmatic and also Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde, tabled track listings are fairly common as they are usually more readable. I appreciate the amount of work you put into Don't Quit Your Day Job!, especially digitizing all the album credits, and my intent was to help improve upon that by making it even better. My apologies if that came across as vandalizing your work.-- NPswimdude500 07:19, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi! I've noticed your name on some hip-hop articles I've been editing so I thought I'd ask your opinion on something. Do you think the G-Unit radio series mixtapes found at the G-Unit discography page deserve articles of their own? Or should they simply be kept in the discography page without expansion? Spellcast 17:06, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
Though this guideline is somewhat controversial, the general consensus on notability of albums is that if the musician or ensemble that made them is considered notable, then their albums have sufficient notability to have individual articles on Wikipedia.
We've done great work so far on the WikiProject Biography Spring 2007 Assessment Drive, reducing the 135,345 backlog by 38,626 to 96,719 as of March 20, 2007. We have only 6,720 more to go to get below 90,000. That would be outstanding and any extra effort that you can offer in these last few days of the drive (which ends March 24, 2007) would be much appreciated. If you haven't already, you may want to load Outriggr's assessment script in your monobook.js. If you have any questions, please feel free to post them on my talk page. -- Jreferee 23:18, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi. You are receiving this message because you participated in the IfD discusion for either Image:42650801_planelong_ap416.jpg, Image:Adam_Air_Flight_172.jpg, or both. I felt you might be interested in participating in the discusion regarding two similar images that have recently been nominted for deletion, here and here.

After cleaning up and expanding a pretty sparse article (see Talk:Kurtis Mantronik), I was hoping for AT LEAST a "B" grade on the article, yet it was graded as a "Start." Could you please tell me why you believe it is a Start, and perhaps give me some ideas as to how to upgrade the article to the next level (B or above)? Thanks in advance! Sundevilesq 17:40, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Please note that it is strictly against Wikipedia guidelines to delete and/or edit other users comments (assuming they are not vandalism). Consequently, I reverted your edit to Talk:Before I Self Destruct.-- NPswimdude500 ( Talk| Contribs) 22:39, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for your contributions! -- WikiProject Biography Spring 2007 Assessment Drive 17:03, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
I reverted your edit to Like Water for Chocolate because quite simply, it is not appropriate to delete 315KB of text with no given reason. Additionally, this text was relevant to the article. in many cases, this is considered vandalism.-- NPswimdude500 ( Talk| Contribs) 01:27, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for reaching out. I also want the article to have FA status but i think a few things need a bit more work, like the 'production' section which is far too brief for an album that eclectic. I've added a little more to it today but I'll have to leave it and return another day to expand the production section if someone else doesn't do it before then. After that i believe it will be truly ready. Ps, sorry about the occasional 'editors tone'. Nothing personal. Majik43 16:55, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
Nope, I don't mind at all, thanks. -- CliffC 14:22, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
Please, I know you edit the Curtis S.S.K. article, it is being constantly vandalized and anonymous users keep adding tracklistings even though they don't have any sources to prove them etc. Can you try and get this article to be semi-protected or something? -- Efil4tselaer 02:11, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
Hey! Sorry about that, didn't realize that was your edit. But I don't think a table is really necessary since it's just one producer, one rapper (mainly) and the samples are listed elsewhere. Anyway, I've been a little busy with life and whatnot but if you wanna help me, let's get down to it. I think we should model the article after Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). Anyway, let's start looking for information, shall we? Funkyvoltron 11:39, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Hello. I leave you this message to prevent further disputes. I recently removed some fair use images from your user boxes. I'm afraid I cannot allow you to use copyrighted images, such as Image:FoodandLiquor.png, on your user page, since this practice is forbidden in Wikipedia:Fair_use#Policy item #9. If you have any questions, please refer to the provided link for the Wikipedia policy, User:Durin's explanation of fair use image removal at User:Durin/Removal of fair use images, leave a message on my talk page, or ask other Wikipedians. Yours truly, Boricuaeddie Talk • Contribs • Spread the love! 21:44, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:THEORT.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 Wikipedia: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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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. Bigr Tex 17:28, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

The newsletter is back! Many things have gone on during the past few months, but many things have not. While the assessment drive helped revitalize the assessment department of the project, many other departments have received no attention. Most notably: peer review and our "workgroups". A day long IRC meeting has been planned for October 13th, with the major focus being which areas of the project are "dead", what should our goals be as a project, and how to "revive" the dead areas of our project. Contribute to the discussion on the the new channel (see below) We decided to deliver this newsletter to all project members this month but only those with their names down here will get it delivered in the future. This is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue. Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned or post news on the next issue's talk page
Lastly, a new WikiProject Biography channel has been set up on the freenode network: Our thanks to Phoenix 15 for setting it up.

Thanks for uploading Image:Dwele.jpg. I noticed 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:
{{
di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.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. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Geniac 19:02, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
Hello, this is a message from
an automated bot. A tag has been placed on
Talk:List of underground hip hop musicians, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be
speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because
Talk:List of underground hip hop musicians is very short providing little or no context to the reader. Please see
Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting
Talk:List of underground hip hop musicians, please affix the template {{hangon}} 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
