[edit] Re: Royce da 5'9"
You need to do some research brah, "Blood Brothers" is the name of an album by hip hop duo Outerspace, an album that features guest appearances from Royce, he's not in a crew called Blood Brothers, son, don't be postin' up random bullshit. --PDTantisocial 21:45, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Royce Da 5'9"
I'm just sayin', even though you deleted it I still got a "New Message" message on my shit. Why you postin' up random shit like that anyway? Dude makes like 20 guest appearances every year, just postin' one of his guest appearances is pointless unless you include all of 'em. --PDTantisocial 23:35, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] RE: Royce Da 5'9"
I'd be hard to find all of 'em, counting mixtapes joints and all that shit, there's one site that's pretty thorough, http://rhymestate.com , they got a lot of guest appearance info and shit, I'ma take a look. --PDTantisocial 23:59, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Royce Da 5'9"
Hi, I removed the link to to worldwideconnected dot com you readded at Royce Da 5'9", because it was added by 213.226.83.138 (talk • contribs) along with many other links to the same site. This appears to be spam and promotion, which goes against WP:EL. But I should have asked before reverting your edit because you are not a spammer, so if I made a mistake in removing the link, please let me know. Wmahan. 05:19, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Regarding Royce Da 5'9"
Hello, I'm here regarding the removal of the "citations needed" annotation from the Royce Da 5'9" article. I added that to the sentence "Royce ... is better known for his freestyling skills — purportedly having never lost a rap battle" as Wikipedia is striving to to be a source of reliable information, and any reliable source needs references. We can't simply add a statement or opinion without citing the original source. Wikipedia:Citing sources states: "Providing sources for edits is mandated by Wikipedia:No original research and Wikipedia:Verifiability, which are policy. This means that any material that is challenged and has no source may be removed by any editor." Instead of removing such a statement though, I decided it would be better to leave it there, but also warn that it doesn't have a known source and ask people to come up with one instead.
Regarding the other change of [[studio album]]s to [[studio album|studio albums]], in case you weren't aware of this syntactic voodoo, the first link works exactly like the second— incorporating the "s" into the link while directing the viewer to the "s"-less article. I had also moved his real name to the beginning of the article as recommended in Wikipedia:Manual of Style (biographies)#Names: "For people who are best known by a pseudonym, the birth name should usually appear first in the article, followed closely by the pseudonym. Follow this practice even if the article itself is titled with the pseudonym." Having it read "(born Ryan Montgomery on July 5, 1977)" makes it sound like he was born with that name but that it is no longer the case (and is in fact exactly what that space in the parentheses is reserved for, see Bill Clinton as an example).
For the above reasons I've partially reverted your last edit. If you'd like to see these guidelines changed, please do post in the relevant discussion area, Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (biographies). Happy editing, and thanks for contributing! – Quoth 06:36, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
