Talk:It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back

message: Does there need to be two sections for the tracklist and the sample section? I was going to merge the two together, kind of like I did on the A Future Without a Past... article. Just wanted to know if there'd be a problem with that. WikiGuy86 (talk) 18:08, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The only problems would be that there are so many samples, it would be kind of messy. But its worth a try. Dan56 (talk) 18:44, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Though the current tracklist format doesn't look awful, I agree w/ Dan56 on the "messy" factor. I honestly think that the previous one (w/ the samples in a separate section) looked a bit better. In my opinion though, the type of tracklist table used for pages such as It Was Written would be the best for this album (minus the "producers" column, being that the Bomb Squad produced the whole thing, and it'd be unnecessary to have them listed in each and every song as the producer). If I were to change the current tracklist format to either of the previous 2 mentioned, would there be any complaints? --Blastmaster11 (talk) 18:52, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: If everyone thinks it better another way then it's fine with me. I personally prefer the version of the tracklist now. The way it was before felt too excessive (as far as having an entire section just for samples on the page) and it seems like it will be almost the same thing if we use the style from the It Was Written article here.

text:  I would like to add that this information is better presented as a table/templated track listing, as a list split from the relevant section, i.e. track listing, brings up readability issues and elongates the article (Wikipedia:Table#Size). The track listing template is not required, but just one example of how a track listing can be shown (Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums/Album_article_style_guide#Track_listing); the template does have the "extra" parameter which is for "per-track information" (Template:Track_listing#Parameters) so perhaps the samples can be incorporated there as nearly each track has samples. Unfortunately, the source is not the most reliable, and samples were almost never credited/cleared during hip hop's golden age, so it's a moot point. Would WhoSampled () be a better source?

message: No Oris Josphe does not appear on this album, whoever or whatever he or she is.
I have the original album and it makes no mention of this person or thing.
Just because you found it AllMusic does not make it correct.
So I have taken the liberty to remove this person or thing
