Speedy delete The article is completely lacking in proper sourcing and formatting as per Wikipedia guidelines.TH1980 (talk) 22:46, 27 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This article is written like an opinion piece instead of an informational piece. Additionally, this article does not have any sources to support the views. Bmbaker88 (talk) 02:04, 28 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Hi! I'm one of the WikiEd people assigned to this course. While looking at the page I noticed that it appears to copy content from here, the Wikipedia article on hip hop, some content from New York City blackout of 1977, and hip hop music. On his sandbox page he seems to give attribution to the other Wikipedia articles, but I don't see where this is in his edit history. I'll send a copy to the student and alert him to this.

Actually, it doesn't look like I can email him. I'll send him a message on his talk page instead. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 05:07, 28 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
