This article was nominated for deletion on 13 April 2007. The result of the discussion was keep.

I'm sorry, but the people saying this article needs to be deleted are out of their minds. Cashis was on The Re-Up. The Re-Up, according to its article, sold 400,000 copies in its first week - which means by now it has certainly earned gold status, and makes Cashis notable according to WP:MUSIC.

Contents 1 Roy Jones Comment 2 Deletion 3 Fair use rationale for Image:Cashis-EP .jpg 4 where's cashis from? 5 WikiProject class rating 6 spelling of his name

[edit] Roy Jones Comment

The Roy Jones comment should be revised. If you take a look at the article it never says that his RAPS were compared to Roy Jones... They are talking about his skill compared to Roy Jones' skill at his prime as a Boxer, not a rapper.

Yea cuz Roy Jones was never a rapper, Cashis never said Roy Jones was a rapper in that interview with XXL mag.

[edit] Deletion

I agree. He was a major contributor to a gold status album. the article should stay

I agree also. A few weeks ago as was looking for an article about him on here.

Does anyone know where in Orange County he's from? Peecee1978 19:08, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Definatly not a delete, he's pretty notable. Once I had a discussion with one of my friends about best West Coast artists, he also named Cashis, I used to do the same once but not now anymore lol. Woop-Woop That's the sound of da Police 20:31, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Cashis-EP .jpg

Image:Cashis-EP .jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:52, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] spelling of his name

which is his name, ca$his or cashis?? In the article there are both. Vacanzeromane (talk) 17:37, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

The dollar sign is just decoration for "s". Wikipedia doesn't copy stylised typography - see WP:NAME#Music. That's why the Korn article isn't titled "KoЯn". Spellcast (talk) 00:24, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

This has again been moved back to "Ca$his" with no explanation. Unless someone gives a reason, I'm moving it back per WP:NAME#Music and MOS:TM. The dollar sign is obviously just decoration and if it was really official, it wouldn't be spelled as "Cashis" several times in his site. Spellcast (talk) 10:12, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
