| Thanks for attempting to look into this, however the individual in question Sciberking is a sockpuppet account attempting to push a Pro-Jimmy Page, anti-Pete Towshend agenda based of his edits on the I can't explain, Pete Townshend page. See the Wiki Libs Sock Puppet investigation and Scieberking was found to have been numerous socks, however has yet to be banned. He has edited/deleted information based on his POV... Anyway on the subject: '''I can't seem to find why it can't be kept in, but if you point it out what passage it is that keeps it from exclusion, which i can't seem to find any of, I am more then willing to let it go, '''--] (]) 02:31, 30 November 2009 (UTC) | |||
| Yes, but I was wondering what aspect/rule does it come under not to keep it in? | |||
| Are you saying it needs to be a direct quote? | |||
| Its was actually sourced and that page had quotes. Jimmy Page: "The music that influenced the first Led Zeppelin album was Muddy Waters, Townshend, Baez, a lot of rockabilly. " <ref>http://www.artistwd.com/joyzine/music/ledzep/zeppelin.php</ref> | |||
| If you could point to the rule on Reliable sources which it excludes it, that'd be cool. -thanks again --] (]) 02:52, 30 November 2009 (UTC) | |||

| ] Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages. It appears that you recently tried to give ] a different title by copying its content and pasting it into another page with a different name. This is known as a "] move", and it is undesirable because it splits the ], which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Misplaced Pages has a feature that allows pages to be ''moved'' to a new title together with their edit history. | |||
| In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the ] at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a ] from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at ] to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other articles that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at ]. Thank you. <!-- Template:uw-c&pmove--> — ] <sup>]</sup>/<sub>]</sub> 20:59, 5 December 2009 (UTC) | |||
| == CyanogenMod AfD == | |||
| Just a quick note regarding the AfD you created at ]. I voted keep, as the admin who restored the article, and I also removed the Not a Vote template that you applied to the page. There's nothing wrong with the AfD itself, esspecially for an article that has been deleted numerous times already. However, you may want to refrain from applying templates that within the context with which you applied the Not a Vote template will generally only create animosity and incite a wave of personal attacks. Simply list the reasons for deletion, and let the community weigh in. | |||
| Is it a perfect process? Absolutely not. However, this is one of the reasons that we admins have a Speedy Delete authority, and is also one of the reasons that only admins and well established editors can close an AfD. If you make a strong, valid argument, and then find yourself overwhelmed by a string of socks and SPA's who are disagreeing with you for personal reasons or to protect a vested interest, then you want to bring that to someone's attention, either on the main AfD talk page, or one of the Administrator notice boards. | |||
| All in all, an AfD is by no means a final verdict on an article, so there really isn't any need to get too wrapped up. In fact, if you have valid material for the article that is critical, just go and add it to the article. ] (]) 13:05, 8 December 2009 (UTC) | |||
| :No worries, mate. I've made far more of a spectacle of myself in these parts over the years than anything you're doing. Keep up the good work. I just wanted to mitigate any issues where in this case I know the concerns are (at least for the moment) unfounded. I'll admit I've only considered a few of the sources in identifying the valid ones, but from a cleanup perspective, please feel free to eliminate any garbage citations in the article, and feel free to say I asked you to do as much in your edit summaries. ] (]) 04:15, 9 December 2009 (UTC) | |||
