message: Has anyone ever heard the song "Will the Real Slim Shady Please Shut the Fuck Up" (featuring Christina Aguilera) by Weird Al Yankovic?
I don't know about the reaction, but it slammed Eminem pretty hard...

message: Eminem sued apple for using one of his songs in an iPod advertisement without the proper rights.  There was an out of court settlement part of which included the creation of the iPod ad that featured Eminem in 2005 or so.  Why are there no details of this incident in the article?  Details: , .

message: I'm just wondering, why can't we edit Eminem's Page? I have a picture of Eminem's Tribute to Proof from Akon's "Smack That" Video that would be great to use for the section about Proof.
I know I've not got good sources for the picture but it's because I don't 100% understand how the sourcing works. But I got the screencap from a You Tube Video if that helps.
How come it doesn't mention that proof murdered a man.  Proof was a scumbag.

replies: text: A screen cap from a YouTube video isn't acceptable on Wikipedia, unless the article is about the video itself.  Wikipedia strives to use only 100% free-use material, of which a frame from a music video does not count.  When an article is specifically about a piece of copyrighted work, such as an individual music video, a frame from that would be FAIR use, and thus marginally acceptable, but it is not FREE use.    I'm also curious as to why there is such a large section on Proof's death on Eminem's page.  Proof has his own page, just a quick mention, along with a sourced quote, about how Proof's death was considered a major life even for Eminem would make sense.  But this isn't a page on Proof, so there is no reason for a two paragraph section on his death.  (The guy shot someone to death over an argument over pool, then was shot dead himself.  Not exactly someone to admire there.)  Ehurtley 04:08, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Moved content: The comment by Ehurtley about admiration (or non-admiration) of Proof notwithstanding, I have removed a substantial section of the off-topic material, as it is already included almost verbatim in the article on Proof. The portions directly relevant to Eminem are acceptable and were left in the article. Please note this does not reflect an opinion either way on the person(s) mentioned in the articles. Regardless of personal viewpoints (or perhaps, *especially* because of personal viewpoints), articles should be rigorously edited to remain on-topic. Thanks dr.ef.tymac 21:58, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I can't access the site without registering. Plus, that is not an authoritative and problably not reliable source. Both allmusic.com and amazon state the name the other way.
