Before you upload this image...
[edit]You might have found this image of Waka Flocka Flame on Flickr that's designated "Creative Commons" material. But it turns out that it's a copyright violation: the uploader is www.chicagofabulousblog.com, but the photo has a watermark of the website atlnightspots.com; this is the original source. The author of the Chicago website freely admits: "I do not own any images on this blog, unless it’s stated in the post." While the image was uploaded to flickr (without permission) the day the original author posted it, I see no evidence that the two websites are associated.

Waka Flocka's Real Name
[edit]I randomly came across Waka's real personal Facebook account, and it states his name as "Juaquin James Malphurs", and seeing as Bertholimule doesn't sound believable it gives me reason to believe his real middle name is James. https://www.facebook.com/DaRealWakaFlocka 173.174.93.168 (talk) 11:26, 9 September 2011 (UTC) S
Edit Request (Small Towns Tour)
There is rumor that Flocka is going on a small towns tour to promote Triple F. I hear he is stopping in Clinton, SC to perform at Presbyterian College. I believe this should go on the main page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Footballpl129 (talk • contribs) 18:07, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

Remove DMX from Triple F Life: Friends, Fans and Family
71.70.245.52 (talk) 03:31, 22 December 2011 (UTC)
- The Triple F Life: Friends, Fans and Family article does not mention DMX as far as I can see. That article is not protected, so you can edit it yourself if you wish.
- I have removed DMX from the list of guest performers in this article, Waka Flocka Flame; any editor may challenge and remove information that has no reliable source. Do you know anywhere that the list of guests has been published? -- John of Reading (talk) 17:06, 27 December 2011 (UTC)

Nominate for Relegation
[edit]This article is incomprehensible. It should be relegated to the fringes. I am not sure why a normal person can't edit this page. Lost of weird circumstances. But it figures. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.13.87.32 (talk) 04:33, 23 January 2014 (UTC)
Possible Vandalism
[edit]"Waka Flocka is an American Country singer"
Unless I'm horribly mistaken, I believe this sentence needs correcting... also the 'Genre' under "Background information".

Relationship to Flakka
[edit]Shouldn't there be a discussion regarding the relationship of his name to the drug "Flakka," which appears to be the source for his name (or vice versa)? Many similar names, such as Method Man, Ice-T, Kurtis Blow, and "The Chef" are also drug-based double entendre. http://www.deathandtaxesmag.com/243592/new-drug-called-flakka-making-florida-even-more-fun/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.200.32.6 (talk) 19:43, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
Presidential Candidacy, 2016
[edit]I realise that he's no longer in the race, due to being under 35, but does anybody think this article should make ANY mention of his campaign besides having it in the category? Thanks. --24.79.103.70 (talk) 22:23, 5 September 2015 (UTC)
- He is not qualified to run. There can be no candidacy.--Sanya3 (talk) 02:35, 17 September 2015 (UTC)
- I just added a mention of the candidacy to Ric Flair and I think it is noteworthy enough for this article too. See the following: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/reliable-source/wp/2015/10/21/rapper-waka-flocka-flame-wants-to-be-house-speaker/ https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-sports/watch-ric-flair-and-waka-flocka-flame-jump-into-presidential-race-111627/ 162.208.171.22 (talk) 19:06, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
Adding link to Gucci Mane’s wiki article
[edit]Gucci Mane is mentioned several times on Waka Flocka’s page, yet his name is not a clickable link to his own Wikipedia entry, which it should be just for ease of use/maintaining a seamless experience for the user. I find on many occasions wiki entries lack the proper links and it disrupts the user experience. A big part of what makes Wikipedia so great is that you can look up one thing and then have the ability to learn more on related topics by clicking through the wiki article links embedded within the page, without having to do a separate search (which often prevents many people from further research out of sheer laziness). Pudchini (talk) 04:46, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
- Mane is linked four times in the article. Per WP:DUPLINK that's more than enough, though they're spread throughout the article so we don't need to trim them down. Primefac (talk) 12:28, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
