[edit] Lyrics

I posted the lyrics, however someone removed them due to copyright problems.

If I repost the lyrics with its source, is that ok?

Could someone please explain to me all the steps to follow, so I don't commit any more copyright infringement.--Misantropo 17:49, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

No problem. Wikipedia tends to shy away from posting the lyrics to any songs, regardless of whether or not a source is posted. Content posted to Wikipedia is has to be compliant with the GFDL and most song lyrics are not, as the authors of said songs retain their copyrights so people do not rip off their lyrics. It is, however, perfectly fine (I think anyway) to post a link to another page that has the lyrics. Its basically just a way to respect the copyrights of others and to week Wikipedia out of any legal tangles. I hope this helps. youngamerican (ahoy-hoy) 20:09, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Michael Jackson

Somebody rewroted the article to state that Michael Jackson didn't do anything on this track. As long as you don't have a source saying the Michael Jackson specifically didn't do it, I will keep this information out of the article. Matt Groening said that Michael Jackson did it and I can't think out of reason why he would lie about this now. --Maitch 15:37, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Someone better change the writer's credit for the single on this page, then.

It lists DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.122.63.189 (talk) 16:01, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Youtube link

Is this link on the site not a copyright infringement? If not, wouldn't it be better to move it to the end of the page?
