I removed covers from the chronology section of the infobox because it violates our fair use policy. Album covers can only be used as a part of critical commentary about the album itself. They shouldn't be used decoratively in an article about a different album. Jogers (talk) 08:18, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Template usage

Per Wikipedia User Page policy:

"Do not put your userpage or subpages, including work-in-progress articles, into categories used by Wikipedia articles. (this is what you are doing) Be careful of templates and stub notices that put a work-in-progress article into categories. (by adding the {{autobiography}} template to your USER page)"

Your User page is not an article and does not have to be NPOV, it is obviously an autobiography. Use the {{userpage}} template instead.--DO11.10 22:54, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

Please vote

I noticed you edited Notepad++ and I was hoping that you would help save the article by voting at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Notepad++ --Adam1213 Talk + 07:00, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Sure, thanks for warning me. I not only edited the article, I also use Notepad++ very often. --Tasco 0 17:22, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Damu Ridas Vol.1: Dangerous

This particular one cannot be deleted since it's authorship history must be retained following the attribution requirements in the WP:GFDL. Please note that being unlinked is not one of the Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion. Splash - tk 22:25, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Cut-n-paste moves

Hello again. I thought I should let you know that moving one article to another title is done by using the 'move' button. Doing so preserves the editing history into the new title. Copy and pasting the material across does not do this, and violates the terms of the GFDL, particularly if someone then deletes the original article. I have just fixed How Deep Is Your Hood in this respect, and I'm going to have ask that you stop seeking deletion of redirects resulting in this kind of fashion. They are not speedy candidates. Splash - tk 22:30, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Hm, looking at your other recent edits, I see you're perfectly familiar with the 'move' button, so excuse the above. However, cut-n-paste was the way you created How Deep Is Your Hood, so still... Splash - tk 23:24, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

First, what did you do to How Deep Is Your Hood?. And second, I did not "cut and paste" to create the article, I just used the same image file as the album cover.

In addition, the articles I nominated to speedy deletion are spelled incorrectly. Both of them (Damu Ridas Vol.1: Dangerous and Damu Ridas Vol.2: How Deep Is Your Hood) and I consider they should be deleted.

As I see your way of thinking with redirects and speedy deletion, I'm going to have to nomite both of the articles to be deleted.

Thanks for all your concerns.--Tasco 0 02:42, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

187 Ride By

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have perfomed a web search with the contents of 187 Ride By, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.amazon.com/187-Ride-Tweedy-Bird-Loc/dp/B00000E0OB. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot 16:40, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

WP:AFD

Articles for Deletion is the wrong venue for redirects. I've closed the two AfDs that you started (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Damu Ridas Vol.1: Dangerous and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Damu Ridas Vol.2: How Deep Is Your Hood) and moved their discussion to Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2007_August_16. Flyguy649 ^talk _contribs 18:16, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for that. I'll keep it in mind next time I nominate a redirect to be deleted.--Tasco 0 18:17, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Redirect of Ain't Got no Class

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Ain't Got no Class, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Ain't Got no Class is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Ain't Got no Class, 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 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. CSDWarnBot 04:32, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

I was about to nominate it after the deletion of Ain't Got No Class. Great anyways.--Tasco 0 20:27, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Planet of da apes

i put the "chocolate city" single info here because the single article is about to be deleted. if you want to revert again, i wont touch it, but i wanted to make you aware of this. --AlexOvShaolin 18:44, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

I noticed that you did it for that reason, even though, the article is about an album and not about a single. The single article claims no notability. See WP:CSD#A7.--Tasco 0 21:18, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Maad Circle

Alright Tasco, I will explain my edits to the article you created, WC and the Maad Circle. I was on allmusic.com getting the chart positions for the 2 albums and I read the article on the Maad Circle and it said this "In addition to the former Ice-T affiliate WC, the talented group also included DJ Crazy Toones, longtime Ice Cube producer Sir Jinx, and future chart-topping pop-rapper Coolio. That is why I added Sir Jinx as a member. I would gladly cite this, but I do not know how to. I would like to stop this edit war before thing get out of hand, so tell me how to cite my sources. --SameAsItEverWas —Preceding unsigned comment added by SameAsItEverWas (talk • contribs) 20:46, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

First of all, thanks for understanding. What All Music Guide says about Sir Jinx it's not as a member, but as a producer for the group. Besides that, you should listen to people who know just a little bit about Wikipedia. Of course I'm not saying I'm an expert or something like that, I'd listen to anyone who has something to say and properly check if that's true.

Anyways, I was trying to help you but you just kept reverting. Just saying "I got it from allmusic.com" in the edit summary doesn't mean you're citing a reliable source. You must cite it within the article.

Let me post some useful guidelines:

• Wikipedia:Citing sources
• Wikipedia:Footnotes
• Wikipedia:Citation templates (you want {{cite web}})

If you have any problems, you may want to check the source of the following article that I cited sources myself: Tweedy Bird Loc.

I hope that clears all your doubts and questions. Anything else, just reply back here.--Tasco 0 23:56, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Alright, now that you pointed this out to me, I understand alot better. I will no longer place Sir Jinx as a member (or change the Wikitable), but I think he does belong in the associated acts section, and being that this whole thing between us is over, can you put WC, Coolio and Crazy Toones as members in the infobox? Same As It Ever Was —Preceding unsigned comment added by SameAsItEverWas (talk • contribs) 07:09, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

What you're saying is to put a music producer as an associated act? That wouldn't make much sence. Think about how many producers had worked with Ice Cube just for example, or how many times Dr. Dre would have to be in associated acts.--Tasco 0 18:20, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

Real Compton G

Yo, i saw ur message on SameAsItEverWas talk page and i was wonderin' if u were refering 2 me ? - holla back - Real Compton G 13:34, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Yo, no bother, i kno wot u mean but i only write like tht on talk pages, on the real pages i keep to the rulz.lol - keep it real - Real Compton G 21:14, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Lil iROCC Williams

Hi, please re-read WP:MUSIC. Thanks. Chubbles 04:35, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

You want me to read the intire article just because you told me to? I think you may want to point out why should I, or maybe what section. Even better, cite what you want me to read here. Thank you.--Tasco 0 04:39, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Charting on Billboard's charts is an assertion of notability. I've been through this many times. Cheers. Chubbles 04:41, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

WP:CSD#A1 may apply here.--Tasco 0 04:44, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Oh, for Pete's sake, can I write a stub about pop music without having someone try to delete it? Ay yay yay. Give me five minutes and I'll add a battery of reviews. Ugh. Ugh! Chubbles 04:45, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Well, I appreciate your work and that you're contributing to Wikipedia. But, in my opinion, I think that you just can't create any article about a person just because you like his/her work. Or is a nice guy.

I can see that besides the article it's very short, you cited sources and everything, but come on. We both now that the articles has no claims of notability as an article. The artist may have charted in Billboard, but that is all.--Tasco 0 04:52, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Here you go. And for what it's worth, I don't like his music, and I know almost nothing about him as a person. I wrote an article because he's clearly notable. Anybody who charts in the US should have an article. Chubbles 04:54, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

You can try creating articles about everybody that charted in the Billboard, but if there's no claims of notabilty, it may be deleted.

I just want you to know that I'm not against you, or against your work. Please don't take personal. I just think the articles lacks notability.--Tasco 0 04:58, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Except that I have now clearly substantiated notability under points 1 and 4 of WP:MUSIC. I'm not reading it wrong, am I? Chubbles 05:01, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

I gues you're not, but like I said, the articles lacks notabilty. You just have to deal with it. It doesn't mather if WP:MUSIC say a different thing. That's just for "music related articles", like this one. But is still an article.--Tasco 0 05:05, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

At this point, I'll leave it to the admins and/or DRV to decide. I think I've made my case. Chubbles 05:06, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, keep the article at any cost.--Tasco 0 05:12, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

Actually, yes. I see no reasonable case to delete the article, and to do so would be to remove relevant, encyclopedic content. Chubbles 05:21, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

It's not encyclopedic since it lacks notabilty.--Tasco 0 05:25, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
