message: Anyone knows if perhaps 50cent was influenced from Bob Dylan's "down the highway" line (from freewheelin bob dylan) while making the title? anyone knows if 50 is maybe a dylan fan?

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Get Rich or Die Tryin' (album)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

thread_title: Certications

message: In Critical reception we currently have the text:
The cited source has: 
Obviously, the Wikipedia text: "undeniable showcase of skill, radio-ready tracks, and marketable thug persona" is ridiculously close to "undeniable skills, radio-ready tracks and a marketable thug persona".
Further, "its dark synth grooves, buzzy keyboards, and persistently funky bounce" is far too close to "of dark synth grooves, buzzy keyboards and a persistently funky bounce". In fact, its virtually verbatim and a copyvio. I've went ahead and placed these verbatim fragments inside quotation marks. Harmelodix (talk) 17:46, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

thread_title: What does this mean?

message: Searching for "High All the Time" brings you here.  That's ok, but it's a chorus in the song Habits (Tove Lo song) by Swdish singer Tove Lo.    It's very easy to get confused by this.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.67.236.234 (talk) 09:31, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

thread_title: Assessment comment

message: In multiple areas, it says things like The album was certified 6× platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for shipping eight million copies in the US.
#Is this correct?
#Should we reword that? Even if it is correct, it would mean they're behind on their certifications or something, right? This current wording makes it sound like it takes 8 million sold to get to 6x platinum, which is not correct by RIAA standards. (Its 1mil = 1x platinum). Thoughts? Sergecross73 msg me 12:48, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: The album has sold 8,5 million copies so far, but it is only certified 6x platinum by the RIAA. I'll reword it right away.--Retrohead (talk) 16:34, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you. I just wanted to double check before making changes myself - I work a lot in music articles, but this falls out of my normal musical interests, so I wanted to make sure there wasn't something I was missing. Thanks. Sergecross73 msg me 19:11, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
