[edit] 50 Cent vs. Cam'ron feud

50 Cent vs. Cam'ron feud (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Unencyclopedic and non-notable discussion of a disagreement between multiple musicians without attribution or sourcing. The only references given are a series of YouTube links to excerpts from various (probably copyvio) radio programs, and a link to lyrics for one of the discussed songs. Has been tagged for references, notability and context issues for over a month, without being addressed. Risker 02:42, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete - Looks like a ploy to generate hype/media attention and the article is helping that cause. Corpx 03:02, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete "real" or not, Wikipedia is not the place to document/publicise celebrity feuds. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 03:18, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - no significance asserted. The thing this article is lacking is a "Reaction" section: and there is a reason for that. Namely, the "feud" has not generated much external heat. It has not widely been noted. GracenotesT § 03:38, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete is there anyone 50 Cent hasn't pissed off? Who cares. JuJube 05:06, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge to Hip_hop_rivalry. the_undertow talk 07:09, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, even though this article is adorably precious. --C.Logan 11:42, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per Corpx Will (is it can be time for messages now plz?) 18:47, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Per WP:BLP and no interest on beginning a East Coast/West Coast type of feud for publicity on a free encyclopedia. Real96 07:45, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge This particular feud is notable as explained in this New York Times article but the amount of material is not really worthy of its own article. Much of this can be integrated into the 50 Cent article, which it already is. Spellcast 16:35, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge If a hip-hop feud is mentioned in the NYT it's surely notable. Also, it's doubtful this is a ploy to generate attention... hip hop stars are always feuding and fans follow the story. Calliopejen1 22:24, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, more garbage utilizing YouTube as a primary source of information. Burntsauce 23:43, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as non-encyclopedic and apparently failed ploy to generate record sales. RFerreira 06:32, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
