I think the section Public Image completely violates WP: PUFFERY & WP:NPOV with its unencyclopedic content about Usher having "the sexiest abs". The impact section also has some problems, being redundant, it seems like it needs a serious trim to the fluff as well DollysOnMyMind (talk) 09:46, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• What I think should be changed: please revert this edit
• Why it should be changed: The edit added uncited, potentially contentious material to the introduction that is not supported by the body.

 Done It actually was supported by the body, but it's not important enough or relevant enough to the subject of the article to be mentioned in the lead, so I removed it. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 19:27, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Combs is mentioned (once, in passing) in the body, but the idea that he was a “mentor” is not. 100.36.106.199 (talk) 13:40, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I listed the music video screenshots at Wikipedia:Files for discussion/2025 May 17. Your inputs there are welcome. George Ho (talk) 00:32, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Just curious: The subject's full name is Usher Terry Raymond IV. His son is the fifth (V). I keep seeing Usher Raymond IV with no middle name, yet sources are giving his full name. I only wonder because generally, when a lineage suffix is used, it includes the full name. -- Otr500 (talk) 23:11, 5 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

By citation 26 in the date December 2008 it states usher was 15 years old. ~2025-41283-64 (talk) 20:08, 18 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
