Talk:Master of ceremonies

message: Having MCed, MC'ed, emcee'd, or emceed an arts festival, several plays as well as numerous improv and drama events, I feel it's safe to say that emcee is not a "misrendering" of MC. =P — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.92.224.39 (talk) 08:40, 9 May 2005‎ (UTC)
I think it should be said that "emcee" isn't a real word.  It is a corruption of the abbreviation.  Why does American English try to make words from abbreviations of individual letters (e.g. "JC" for junior college => "jaycee," another non-existent word). 2001:470:D:468:7455:7A:1C17:3DB4 (talk) 05:05, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: AmE is not the only English language (or any language) to invent words and spellings, so don't let ignorance or arrogance bias your thinking. You can find numerous invented spellings in BE and other languages. It's part of language development and evolution. In any case, this isn't a forum; we use this page to discuss improvements to the article, not discuss off-topic matters. - M0rphzone (talk) 04:36, 23 February 2013 (UTC)

message: The last sentence about kids being too poor to buy instruments - while it may well be true, it is  a) unqualified, and b) off the point.  This article is specifically about MCs,  not the origins of Hip-Hop DJing/Turntablism.  Removing this sentence. Beerathon 14:36, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

message: Please clean this up. It's full of subliminal bias and should be merged with the MC page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.86.70.243 (talk) 21:15, 25 June 2006‎ (UTC)

message: I think it would be worth mentioning the role of an MC during a wedding reception, which seems like a fairly common application of the MC role. --Anon  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.107.0.73 (talk) 02:33, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Question: Is it master of ceremony or master of ceremonies if it is only one event?   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.129.162.191 (talk) 20:25, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

message: I have a strong inclination to think that the rappers redefining the term MC are only doing so because they simply don't know what the term means themselves. Throughout history, spellings have been changed and even the meanings of words have changed due simply to ignorance. Please bear this in mind when rappers will undoubtedly try to update this article Owen214 (talk) 10:30, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Because this is sourced and, as far as I can tell, there is none for the 1973, it seems like it should be changed. Did anyone else have a source for the 1973 that should be looked at? Coralshin (talk) 19:05, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

message: Master of ceremonies is now more commonly used to refer to rappers in electronic music. I think that the article should be updated to include this as a main part of it. – Craig Davison (talk) 15:54, 4 March 2018 (UTC)
