Un-cited assertions

This article comes rather too close to gossip and un-verified assertion. More citations needed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.5.15.139 (talk) 18:55, 24 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I saw him in an interview say his son is 9 years old. So either the DOB or the info about him becoming a father at 21 is wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.74.96.123 (talk) 20:04, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Recent removal of content.

As an editor has recently purged a lot of detail from this page, I'd like their input as to why they think it should be removed. Edit summaries state "No other artist has this info" - but as per WP:OTHERSTUFF, what is or isn't on another similar page is not grounds for removal (or inclusion).

I'm ambivalent, but would like to know specifically what the editor has against reasonable information being in the encyclopaedia. Chaheel Riens (talk) 11:50, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Giggs (rapper)

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Giggs (rapper)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 18:17, 29 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Misleading tag

Looking at this article, I can tell that there is some misleading information about Giggs's birthday, name, etc. I've put the misleading tag until someone can find reputable sources confirming more informatin. FlavoredSpace (talk) 19:44, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

And I have removed it again because 1) it is far too vague, and 2) there is no apparent basis for it, neither in the article nor here on the talk page. If a claim in the article lacks a verifiable source then tag that specific claim as such. If a claim fails verification then tag that claim as such. Xover (talk) 20:51, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Skrapz

Not sure why this suddenly becomes an article about Skrapz instead of Giggs? This content should be moved to his own page. Jestaniforth (talk) 05:21, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
