Talk:The Real Slim Shady

message: Why was Tommy Coster Jr. listed as main producer instead of Dr. Dre? And why was Mel-Man not listed? I Removed Tommy Coster Jr. as producer since he's not credited on the album liner notes, whereas Mel-Man is. By doing some research I found out Tommy Coster Jr. only played the keyboard melody, and didn't do any production, which is a very different thing.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.216.8.203 (talk) 04:41, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

message: Udonknome, could you explain the delition of the section explaining the reference made in The Dark Knight? Why delete and not reorganize for example?
'The Dark Knight' was not necessarily referring to this song when that phrase 'Will the real x please stand up?' was used, because that phrase was originally used in the game show 'To Tell the Truth'; Eminem's use of that phrase is itself referring to something else.

message: Why was information concerning Tom Green, Brittney Spears, and Christina Aguilira deleted from the article?  The claims were all correct and supportable by looking at the lyrics. --EngineerScotty 17:30, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: All of the music video material is gone. Like the real appearance of Fred Durst. It seems like looking back in the edit logs someone keeps controlling the verdict, yet not delivering actual descriptive information or evidence of the material in the music video. Rather than revert, it should be edited to add the actual information of the music video Jerry Steinfield (talk) 00:56, 18 April 2023 (UTC)

message: I'm not sure, but it appears code is (was) missing from the info-box.  The chart position code was like this: 
  Chart position = 
#1 (UK)
#2 (Switzerland)
#2 
ll>(Norway)</small>
#3 (Sweden)
#4 (US)
#4 (Italy)
#6 (France)
#6 (Austria)
#6 (Finland)
#7 (Germany) |
I have tried to set it up now, however I am assuming that the #2 refers to Norway, however there could be any number of entries missing and the #2 might not refer to Norway.  If anybody can double check this, appreciated. DanielBC 11:17, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Code missing from Info Box? 

message: The gay issue must be addressed in the article more exactly. However I don't think there is a negative representation in this video (as well as other videos by Eminem regarding the issue.) It may looks like disapproving, but come on, we are now addapted to this level of joking.
I am going to open an entry by the title "representation of gay people in popular culture" or simply gay representation —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nyeditor (talk • contribs) 16:04, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Anyone ever realize the title is a reference to a twilight zone episode 'Will the real martian please stand up'?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.3.199.143 (talk) 04:31, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: File:The Real Slim Shady.png Nominated for speedy Deletion

message: Under the parodies section, it states that "Will the Real Slim Shady PLease Shut Up" then goes on to say someone named Emily Ellis recorded it and says she's often confused with Christina Aguilera.  But then the reference link goes to a People magazine article saying that it is Christina.  Now, I can buy that that is an example of the mix up, but there is no documentation of Emily Ellis in the article.  No page about this girl-rapper.  NO link to a reference clearing up the mistaken identity.  A Google search brings up people with that name who are models and actresses and non-celebs.  This makes the Ellis info suspect at first glance.  The entry needs to be properly cited for wikipedia standards.

thread_title: Please Shut Up

message: So if none of yu relized it eminem references the bloodhound gangs song nothin but mammals in it. the exact part is where it say "we aint nothin but mammals well some of use cannibals Etc is there a reason this isnt in the article 209.169.202.90 (talk) 04:02, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reference to other song not mentioned in article 

message: Yes, it has comedic elements. Having said that, the film The Matrix contains some quite funny jokes, but that doesn't make it a comedy. The primary tone of the song is not comedic, so unless 'comedy hip-hop' gets cited, it'll probably be removed. 122.105.138.248 (talk) 00:27, 30 September 2012 (UTC)

message: I think that WikiProject Christina Aguilera is suitable here. HĐ (talk) 14:55, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  WP Christina Aguilera? 

message: I remember there was a very special edit of "The Real Slim Shady" played exclusively at 102.7 KIIS FM that featured the following inclusions, treating it as a sort of unofficial remix:
# A re-reference to "My Name Is" where Dr. Dre's brief rap line was used, before the part about Eminem locking him up in his basement
# Instrumentals of The One (Backstreet Boys song) by Backstreet Boys and Oops!... I Did It Again (song) by Britney Spears over Eminem's chorus
# A new rap verse written and performed by one of the KIIS FM DJs
