[edit] From the Roots to Fruits

From the Roots to Fruits (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Article is unsourced and unverified speculation. Can find no indication on the news archives for the Black Eyed Peas website of an upcoming album, let alone one by this title. The only source provided is this article on Billboard.com, which only verifies the first paragraph of the article, and is the only verifiable source cited in the article. Some of it is written as outright speculation, and at least a quarter of the article is about stuff unrelated to the article.

  • Delete unless sourced and verified, until such a time as a sourced and verifiable article can be written. As a second option, strip out everything that cannot be verified by reliable, third-party sources (forum postings do not count, methinks) and rename OR merge until the title is revealed in a reliable, third-party source. -- saberwyn 22:53, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
  • COMMENT: Note the alternative version of the article at From Roots to Fruits. I don't have time to do the research right now to see if either of these should exist, but at the very least we should merge and eliminate one of them. -MrFizyx 22:51, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong Delete. I cannot find any reliable sources verifying the information in the article, including the album name. This article seems to be a collection of "buzz" and rumours making the rounds, rather than an actual encyclopedia article. Vassyana 07:21, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
