50 Cent[edit]

The article is good enough to be A-Class.--Shadyaftrmathgunit 23:29, 12 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comments - Only free use images are permitted in templates. I'm not sure that the image in the infobox qualifies as such. The statement about his August 11, 2007, quote needs direct sourcing. The image question, if it can't be used there, might be sufficient to withhold A status. I suggest that further review be suspended until it is definitely known whether that image can be used one way or another. I've left a question at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions regarding it and hope to receive a response shortly. John Carter 14:21, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, it is a free image. The photographer was kind enough to release it under Creative Commons. Spellcast 21:34, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Support - with proviso that statement of August 11, 2007, gets a direct source, as indicated above. John Carter 14:45, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That never should have been added in the first place, especially in the lead-in (see WP:RECENTISM). Spellcast 21:37, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I'm going to have to oppose for the same reasons said in Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/50 Cent. This passed as a good article only only three weeks ago and the reviewer suggested room for improvement, which has not been addressed yet. There's little critical reception of his albums and no reviews of his acting. So it's still not as comprehensive as it should be. Spellcast 21:34, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Per Spellcast. - Duribald 18:24, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
