      Eminem hasn't released a solo studio album on Shady other than the 8 mile soundtrack and The Re-Up.

      Censored word in "Hailie's Song"

      There are two conflicting stories in this article. One says that the censored line is "want her", and the other says "abort her", in the trivia section. The first has a link to a youtube video as a source, but the youtube video was "reconstructed" from the original file by trial and error and isn't necessarily accurate. But it is proof at least that it could be possible. So until someone gets some proof either way, I'm removing the line in trivia about "abort her", and I'm editing the first to reflect the reality of its questionability. 206.225.143.51 (talk) 21:25, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

      Failed "good article" nomination

      This article failed good article nomination. This is how the article, as of June 2, 2010, compares against the six good article criteria:

      1. Well written?: Fail - Article needs improved organization. Has a "Trivia" section.
      2. Factually accurate?: Fail - Article has tags for improved references. Several sections are uncited or inadequately cited. Has unsourced quotes
      3. Broad in coverage?: It focus almost entirely on the content of the album and nothing about the background, the genre, the instrumentation, and only a few lines about the production.
      4. Neutral point of view?:?
      5. Article stability? Pass
      6. Images?: Pass


      When these issues are addressed, the article can be renominated. If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it have it reassessed. Thank you for your work so far.

      Is there anyone that can fix The Eminem Show and Encore articles?

      They're both pretty messy and the only Eminem articles that really need help. I'm not good at these types of things so I'm just asking. There's a lot of misc. information and not enough about the album itself. Jp0291 (talk) 02:13, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

      The article is not bad actually, but might need some review. I'll have a look at it and hopefully can make it acceptable to GA status. Laurent (talk) 16:11, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

      Certification

      As 10×Platinum is more accurate than Diamond, we prefer to use 10×Platinum. Consider this - Diamond means everything above 1,000,000. 10×Platinum means between 1,000,000 and 1,100,000, since then it becomes 11×Platinum. In this case the sources are very clear and it was certified 10×Platinum. Please stop changing it. --Muhandes (talk) 18:05, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

      Censored Version of Drips??????

      Okay, I checked out the "Censored Version" section and there's something that says "This album allowed no profanities, and the profanities were either muted or back masked. Following this, the censored version even took out entire sentences because they were too sexually charged. In fact, the entire song "Drips" is removed in the clean version and is just heard as four seconds of silence moving on to "Without Me", due to thinking there were so many profanities that editing the song would be pointless. But some copies feature an edited version of "Drips." I don't understand this. Is there actually a Clean version of "Drips" on some copies of this album? I wanna know because on iTunes, "Drips" is just 4-minute silence before "Without Me". Can somebody HELP!?!? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.101.221.8 (talk) 19:58, 2 July 2012 (UTC)

      Pitchfork Review

      Can we remove Pitchfork Media's score and excerpt about them from the critical reception section? The review appears to have been written as a joke. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.105.93.125 (talk) 01:25, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
