...is this page really mainatinable? --FuriousFreddy 17:15, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

The list isn't. Tim Ivorson 11:44, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
That's what I mean. This is far from an incomplete list. It'd take a decade or two just get it halfway done. --FuriousFreddy 17:30, 11 July 2005 (UTC)

I think it's best if these lists were in alpha order. I'll try to avoid repeats.

I dont think its appropriate to include entries like 50 cent and other members of his crew. If they are known as being artists that work together, its hardly a 'notable colloboration'. Its my opinion this list is based more on an individual's personal taste than any sort of objective criteria or fact.

[edit] New table coding

Man, those rappers do way too many duets. As hard as it is to keep up with them, I've made a new table code and began the revamp. So far, I've converted all of 2Pac's collabs and less than half of 50 Cent's. Thanks for doing a duet with every rapper under the sun, Fiddy! (sarcasm). Please help fix this article with my new table coding, and if it sucks, please have mercy on me; I'm new.

[edit] What you can do to help

  • Revamp this article's coding (duh!)
  • I'm just about to go to my friend's birthday party, so I won't have much time to sink in to Wikipedia today. That's why I haven't bothered to add the album(s) every song appeared on and the year they were made. You can find these things by doing song searches at MP3.com.
  • Please put all special notes in their appropriate spot (like the one on the System of a Down song being a cover of Wu-Tang Clan).
  • This article is almost completely devoid of Christian and old school collabs. I know a lot of those, so I'm gonna add them when I have time, after the re-coding is finished.
  • If there's anything unnecessary or just wrong with my coding, please be bold and fix it.

Thanks!
