Where and when was he born? Where was he raised? Which citizenship does he hold? Where does he live? F W Nietzsche (talk) 13:50, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Note: His birthyear was not explicitly stated in the reference article. Instead I simply took his age at the time of the article and subtracted it from the date of the article, which gave me 1973. If more specific information becomes available, feel free to change it. --Janas19 (talk) 21:31, 26 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How do you know he will produce born this?? No information on that has been released. I'm going to delete it until its proven. He is producing some songs on the album but no one knows if he is the title song. 70.173.230.88 (talk) 02:18, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

it has already been confirmed that RedOne is producing several tracks for LG's new record. However, the title track "Born this Way" was produced by Fernando Garribay and Stefani herself. I'm removing that track from the list on the article.--68.89.78.134 (talk) 09:36, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Red One is still pending for a Latin Grammy nomination as producer on the album "Euphoria" by Enrique Iglesias that is nominated for Album Of The Year — Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.78.214.105 (talk) 21:26, 30 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Stating his DAW and his signature techniques is extremely relevant. Anyone that has researched into it would do a lot of good to add it to the main article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 187.113.207.131 (talk) 11:56, 21 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"Early in 2010, RedOne worked with Michael Jackson on what would be the late singer's final album." He worked with MJ after he died? Should that be re-worded stating that he worked with MJ's recorded material, instead? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.89.128.5 (talk) 13:59, 13 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, removed on the basis he couldn't have worked with MJ once he was dead. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.43.185.202 (talk) 20:16, 25 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Didn't even work with michael jackson at all!. lots of this article needs additional citation. notability check and likely, aFd! --203.219.135.147 (talk) 08:11, 27 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Notability is well-established, I'd say. Prominent third party media sources have reported on him. USA Today, Washington Post, Viacom, L.A. Times, BBC etc. If we consider him a "composer", then he meets notability simply for co-authoring half of Lady Gaga's discography. --Thevampireashlee (talk) 19:10, 27 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have now removed the "controversial comments". He might have reworked some of MJ's songs, but this doesn't mean he worked with him as the objectors point out. werldwayd (talk) 03:14, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Should it not state that he is Swedish-Moroccan. He is a citizen and still has plenty of business investments in Sweden? 64.203.182.109 (talk) 18:36, 11 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It should definitely state that he's a Swedish citizen. I changed it to "Moroccan-born Swedish producer" and got rid of "American" because he's not an American. That would require American citizenship, which he doesn't have. Moreover, he doesn't even spend much time in the US anymore.69.114.200.50 (talk) 20:44, 18 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I've put it at just "Swedish" for now. He's from Morocco, but his country of notability and where he did much of his production/business took place in was Sweden (or by extension America). Clear Looking Glass (talk) 00:59, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In our infobox, we have a photo of RedOne File:Atif Zinachi With RedOne.jpg with one Atif Zinachi, whoever he is. He created a page for him on French Wikipedia as an artists based mainly on this: http://www.youtube.com/user/AtifZinachi French Wikipedia just deleted the page as non-notable (for obvious reasons). For deletion and messages by colleagues in French Wikipedia, see fr:Discussion utilisateur:Atifzinachi. So here we go again. I am in favour of the artist being discussed, here RedOne with a face photo. Isn't the presence of a hugely unknown person besides him distracting, and if you don't mind me saying, just to cash in some publicity? Even if the other person is well-known, still usage of a double photo is unwarranted and questionable at best. This photo has got to go soonest in favour of another just representing just RedOne. werldwayd (talk) 00:16, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Removed the objectionable photo with Atif Zinachi werldwayd (talk) 03:30, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I could edit the photo and remove Atif if you like. zlouiemark [ Talk | Contribs ] 09:06, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please do. In that case we could have his face photo in infobox. That would be great. werldwayd (talk) 19:07, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

thanks. I changed it. oh, if you have more suggestions I am willing to do it. :) zlouiemark [ Talk | Contribs ] 02:30, 28 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I spotted these three sources in German while cleaning up a Wikidata item of a guy called Geo Slam, namely [1][2][3]. There was a minor scandal regarding one of his former co-worker accused to be a con-artist acting as a top producer and using also RedOne's image to promote his activity in Germany, Switzerland and Denmark. If you want to add it to the page, I leave the links here.--Alexmar983 (talk) 01:30, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
