I do not see him in French mainstream press, and in very little English press (and they're all passing references). I don't want to pad this out any further until I can find some sources. So if you're wandering across this, please advise. Thank you. Xavexgoem (talk) 23:58, 28 April 2009 (UTC) - I agree. Finding sources for Salah is hard. I think it's because most of his fame, from what I can tell, is due to his YouTube videos and to his success on the competition circuit. If you pay attention to hip-hop dance competitions and watch popping videos on YouTube then Salah seems like he's all over the place but when I tried to find good sources for this article, I came up short. I wish he would do an interview with some magazine. Then we would have something to work with. // Gbern3 (talk) 19:21, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
- UPDATE: I've been updating this article and combing the Internet for good sources on Salah for the past month. I used Google, Yahoo!, and Bing when I did searches. What really helped me when trying to find articles or good web sites is by using more than one search term. I would use his name (most of the time his first name only) as well as something he was involved in. For example, I knew that Salah had been to the UK B-Boy Championships so when I did a search on Google (or any of the other search engines) for him I would type in Salah "UK B-Boy Championships". Putting the title in quotation marks tells the search engine to treat the title as one word rather than three words—very important and very helpful. I did this with other events like Juste Debout, and Breakin' Convention. A lot of the results were videos which isn't surprising given his popularity but other results were actually good sources. Most of the time, I was able to find something within the first three pages. // Gbern3 (talk) 17:23, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
