Cleanup

This article needs a lot of cleaning up. I am going to add a 'To-Do' list which will liost all of the tasks that need to be completed to sort this article out. --The-G-Unit-Boss 11:43, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

here here, sources is what we need, oh but dont put tags on , because if you put too many on your accused of vandalism ,ha what a joke. I think the best thing is to delete anything unsourced. It is after all wiki policy. Oh no no1 wants that do they? well maybe the tags weren`t such a bad idea after all. Realist2 15:27, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have added citations to thee success area, mostly around sales figures and that whole christina oral sex thing. This all needs clearing up, Realist2 18:44, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have been cleaning the article up loads. i.e all of the references etc, we just need people to find sources now. --The-G-Unit-Boss 19:30, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I will look into sources, I have read lots of stuff on him over the years and was a true fan, however ever since the whole michael jackson episode... I dont no, eminem really has let his black supports down, anyway getting back to the issue, yes Ill look into sources in time. lets get this article up to scratch, it would help if people didnt keep reverting tags. I think there should be a consensus to keep tags on rather than remove them because it looks messy , this article is at a terrible stage and im not sure if it would have been sorted if I hadnt interjected(I hope thats how you spell it).
