Of those, I prefer ALT2b. Cooljeanius (talk) (contribs) 21:35, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I too prefer ALT2b; it connects their current beef to a specific song from 2013 - nearly a decade ago. Yoshiman6464 ^♫🥚 04:06, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Cadenrock1 and Evrik: I hate to be a fuzzy-duddy about this (despite being younger than both feud participants) but is there really a need for WP:FANCRUFT-adjacent stuff like the "Full song chronology" section? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 17:39, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. The songs track the feud. --evrik ^(talk) 02:30, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for leading with inquiry. I haven't been a huge fan of the section since its inception, but I admit it has dramatically improved from its uncited and originally researched genesis. A brief summary of song contents is necessary for a longwinded feud like this spanning many years and tracks. Cadenrock1 (talk) 05:48, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Looking for a primary source of VIBE Magazine's 2014 winter cover story

Hello,

Following the trail of links to VIBE Magazine's original winter 2014 cover story with Drake leads to this article. The article cuts itself off early and the needed quotation seems inaccessible. Site says 'click on the arrows above to read Drake's Q&A'-- there are no such things. Perhaps an old feature of the site that became nonfunctional after a website overhaul?

I used VIBE Magazine's recap of the feud this year as a secondary source, but the primary source would be preferred, if anyone could get it or an archive of it. Cheers.

Cadenrock1, is this what you were looking for? Arrows are on the cover image, and I think it's on slide 4. PantheonRadiance (talk) 08:25, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Who made "meet the grahams" redirect to this article?

Who made "meet the grahams" redirect to this article? Please delete this redirect admins. "meet the grahams" is notable enough to have its own article if "Taylor Made" is notable enough to get its own article. Thanks. Or delete the "Taylor Made" article.

"Meet the Grahams" is now a standalone article. Any editor can expand a redirect into an article by following the directions at Wikipedia:Redirect § How to edit a redirect or convert it into an article (WP:RTOA). — Newslinger talk 05:35, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Champagne Problems

Should Champagne Problems be listed? I, personally, think so but I might be wrong. GamerKlim9716 (talk) 20:40, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
