Text and/or other creative content from this version of Mac Lethal was copied or moved into Mac Lethal discography with this edit on 12:06, 28 December 2019‎ (UTC). The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

POV

This page seems to have been re-written by someone close to Mac Lethal, a fan, or the man himself. It talks very highly of him and contains a lot of highly diputable claims. No disrespect for the man, because I respect what he does for the K.C. hip-hop scene. However, this article needs to be neutral and not written like its a fan rambling over how awesome he is. If any of the claims made here have a source to back them up (a neutral source, not a fansite), then feel free to add any comments I remove. Any help will be appreciated as I probably won't catch everything, hence the tag. Thanks. --Renegade Replicant|^{leave me a message} 18:02, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Plagarism

The "Early" section is completely take from the article listed at number two. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.161.150.132 (talk) 04:31, 25 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What's with the book deal and net worth stuff?

Sounds like garbage, marking it up for delete — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.253.185.178 (talk) 04:19, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced material

I noticed that JesseRafe (talk · contribs) made an edit to a biography of a living person, Mac Lethal, but that he didn't support his changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message below. Thank you. 114.165.42.69 (talk) 20:16, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"Making changes" = "undoing vandalism/section blanking" nowadays? I don't need to supply a reason to restore an article to the way it was, but the person who removes entire sections needs a reason to do so. If something is unsourced, put a CN tag on it or talk about it on the Talk Page. Waltzing in and wholesale deleting is frowned upon. JesseRafe (talk) 20:23, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the article has been already tagged {{citation needed}}. Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. 114.165.42.69 (talk) 20:35, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You seem to be having serious reading comprehension difficulties. I am not adding or changing content. I am replacing what was already there before an anonymous vandal wholesale deleted many other editors' contributions. If you have any disputes on the content-level side, please take the time to mark each item with a CN tag. The hat tag on top of the article is not a license to delete whatever doesn't fit into your personal worldview of the subject, but a guideline that the article as a whole needs to be improved. JesseRafe (talk) 21:00, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The burden of evidence lies with the editor who adds or restores material, and is satisfied by providing a reliable source that directly supports the material. Please stop adding unsourced content. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Thank you. 114.165.42.69 (talk) 21:05, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The onus is always on the one who changes the status quo to at least give a reason. You have yet to give a single one. You use blanket terms and generalities. Not reasoned arguments. JesseRafe (talk) 21:10, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with the IP completely. Information in biographies of living people needs to be cited. Removing uncited content from BLPs is a good thing, whether it has been there for a day or for a year. The IP certainly isn't engaged in vandalism, see WP:NOT VANDALISM for details. Mark Arsten (talk) 21:17, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

JesseRafe, you may also want to see WP:BLP and WP:BURDEN, both of which are the relevant Wikipedia policies. Thank you. 114.165.42.69 (talk) 21:45, 11 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
