Talk:The Documentary

Storch and Elizondo

are they listed on production, co-production, or instruments?

i'm assuming co-prod., but i don't have this album. 134.69.166.26 21:19, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Kanye West

Kanye West is from the midwest not eastcoast

It says several big-name producers that produce FOR East Coast rappers, not several big-name producers FROM the East Coast. --- Efil4tselaer: Resurrected 23:45, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

Samples

can someone add the samples that were on this album. -RR june 09, 2007

GA review

Pass: Superior article. I have almost nothing to say about such a well-written and vastly referenced article. I'm glad that such a portion of culture is being covered to this extent in Wikipedia.

• Is it alright to have the chart performance nav templates so high up? Usually they're all at the bottom, but it makes more intuitive sense above.

I moved it under the external links. Spellcast 03:30, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

• "Personnel" seems kind of strange, and unnecessary since the most important information is given in the infobox. The other information is rather detailed.

Yeah the section does repeat the producers in the infobox, but personnel sections are allowed per WP:ALBUM#Personnel. Spellcast 03:30, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

• Must "Sales and impact" be titled "impact"? There doesn't seem to be much in the section about its impact.

Yes you're right. I changed it to simply "Sales". Spellcast 03:30, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Very nice. As you can see, I'm pulling at straws now trying to find things to say, because it's an excellent read. ALTON .ıl 00:27, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick response. Good luck in all your future endeavors. ALTON .ıl 03:37, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

5 times platinum?

I thought it went double platinum. The reference doesn't say anything about him selling 5 mil either. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.167.204.104 (talk) 05:55, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

It's 2x platinum in the U.S. The 5 mil refers to worldwide sales. It says so in the ref.[1] Spellcast (talk) 06:25, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
