Prof (rapper) → Prof – Disambiguation is not needed because there is no other page titled "Prof”. Instead, the {{About}} template can be placed at the top of the article to link to Professor (disambiguation). – 118.8.78.253 (talk) 05:32, 9 August 2014 (UTC)

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 08:18, 9 August 2014 (UTC)

• To most people, "Prof" is short for "Professor", and not some obscure rapper. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 08:18, 9 August 2014 (UTC)
• Oppose speedy close please someone. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:59, 9 August 2014 (UTC)
• Oppose. I disagree that the rapper should be the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. "Prof" is a long standing, long-term significant, abbreviation of "Professor". Zzyzx11 (talk) 09:02, 9 August 2014 (UTC)

How is the information not reliable if obtained from Rhymesayers?

It seems one is grasping at straws to take down edits regarding Prof's removal from Rhymesayers Entertainment, given the label themselves have released a statement. RapSavior (talk) 08:26, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

Please provide a third-party reliable source. 180.3.136.64 (talk) 08:55, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

A third-part reliable source is only applicable when the information is contentious - this is first-hand from Rhymesayers Entertainment, a valid source noted several times on this page without a secondary citation. This is also a new development, more sources will arrive in mere hours.

Also, be aware of the three edit rule. RapSavior (talk) 09:08, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

It is contentious to claim that someone committed a sexual misconduct or that someone's music is misogynic. Per WP:BLP, we need a third-party reliable source that directly supports the claim. If "more sources will arrive in mere hours", then we should wait for them. 180.3.136.64 (talk) 09:26, 25 June 2020 (UTC)
