Early credits[edit]

@Ninjinian: You added the track list with songwriter and producer credits already, but where did you get this information? It's a lot of information but I might revert it if you don't cite it. I already notice that credits you put for "Dreams Money Can Buy" doesn't credit Jai Paul. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Don't forget to share a Thanks ) 22:21, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Nice4What: I'm in the process of adding credible sources based on credits from when these songs were first released (e.g. articles from Billboard and HotNewHipHop.) The Jai Paul contribution is a sample. Ninjinian (talk) 22:28, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Ninjinian: Yes, but wouldn't Jai Paul be included as a songwriter as per the credits on the So Far Gone re-release? And then again, wouldn't all songwriters just be speculation until the album is released in 6 hours? Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Don't forget to share a Thanks ) 22:30, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Nice4What: Do we qualify Genius as a credible source? Because there are songwriting credits provided over there. If not then the majority of these credits will merely be added back on if removed. Ninjinian (talk) 23:07, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Ninjinian: Genius is user-edited (just like Wikipedia) and can be very unreliable. I like to point out that they widely reported that Frank Ocean was on the album Igor though that wasn't the case. I will be removing the songwriters and producers. We can re-add with what's officially provided in 5 hours.

@Nice4What: I understand that the album's out very soon, but what about production credits from reliable sources from when a handful of these songs were initially released, like Billboard? There are a handful of those available to add. Ninjinian (talk) 23:16, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Ninjinian: If it can be added and cited with a reliable source then there should be no problem. I believe for example the production credits for "The Motion" and "Dreams Money Can Buy" are already easily found.

@Nice4What: Fair play. Ninjinian (talk) 23:19, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@171.7.93.163, 99.1.189.47, and Orr971: Read above. Don't add unsourced producers. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Don't forget to share a Thanks ) 02:29, 2 August 2019 (UTC). Edited 02:33, 3 August 2019 (UTC). Edit 2 15:47, 3 August 2019 (UTC).[reply]

Credits for tracks 1-10 have been added on Tidal. I assume tracks 11-17 will be updated later. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Don't forget to share a Thanks ) 21:30, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
