Why is El-P controversial? The article says that he is controversial numerous times but doesn't go into any detail as to why he is controversial.

I've been looking all over the internet for El-P's birth date but I can't seem to find it anywhere. 2 March 1975 is a qualified guess on my part. According to All Music Guide, El-P and Mr. Len formed Company Flow in 1992 after they had met at El-P's 18th birthday party. This would make 1974 or 1975 his birth year. He was born in March but I'm not sure if 2 March or 4 March is the correct date. If anybody can help out, even El-P himself, please do. Funkyvoltron 14:30, 13 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I read 2 recent articles stating his age. One said 31 and the other 32. I know his birthday was recent, so that makes me say 1975..with one of the interviews conducted just before and the other after. There was also a "happy birthday, El" forum post on DefJunkies on 03/04/07- http://defjunkies.com/showthread.php?t=6785. Post was made by Alaska- I am guessing he probably knows his birthday.

If Company Flow was formed in 1992 and the members first met at El-P's 18th birthday party and El-P was born in early 1975, one of the three items has to be wrong.91.13.100.162 21:23, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Should we rename this article El-P? Funkyvoltron 18:52, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why was the picture changed from image:El-p_promo2.jpg? I thought the first picture was fine, and it was a much better shot of El-P than the current one. The old picture seems to have its fair use and copyright tags all in order, so the change seems unwarranted.--Drewcifer3000 09:04, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed El-Producto from Futurism (art) article. Please provide input if this is disputed. Bus stop 13:08, 21 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:CollectingTheKid.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.
