Requested move[edit]

The result of the proposal was move. JPG-GR (talk) 05:41, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Marcus Edwards → Lil' Keke — It is Wikipedia custom to list rappers by their stage names rather than their government names. For instance, there are no substantial articles titled Bernard Freeman, Hakeem Seriki, Stayve Thomas, or Paul Slayton; these articles are titled by the peoples' stage names, which are Bun B, Chamillionaire, Slim Thug, and Paul Wall, respectively. Likewise, this page should be titled Lil' Keke, because it is the name the rap world knows him by. Tom Danson (talk) 03:31, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Survey[edit]

Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with *'''Support''' or *'''Oppose''', then sign your comment with ~~~~. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's naming conventions.

~~Weak~~ support. This is what we do with other singers known by stage names, from Lola Montez to Madonna (actress); I support weakly because I don't know that this is the common stage name. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 22:21, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- If you need more strength for your support, take a look at this. All his albums have him credited as Lil' Keke. Tom Danson (talk) 00:18, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
