] has, three times in two hours, removed a quote cited to ''Uncut'' Magazine, June 2004. At first, he apparently (from his edit summary) believed that this was being cited to a website which caries a transcript of the article in question. Once this was error pointed out (in my edit summary) he changed his reasoning; and now seems to believe that FAC criteria prevent their inclusion - but does not specify which criterion, or how the quote breaches it. (The edits and edit summaries in question are: {{Diff|The Final Cut (album)|621598684|621591282|"please explain what makes 'pinkfloydz.com' a reliable source"}}, {{Diff|The Final Cut (album)|621606930|621606639|"clearly you don't know what you're talking about"}}, {{Diff|The Final Cut (album)|621607765|621607443|"try reading the Featured Article Criteria"}}) I have asked him to take the matter to the talk page, but he has not done so and, given past experience and the current comments he makes on his own talk page, refusing a similar request, it sadly seems unlikely that he will comment here.

::::::::I don't think the quotation from Roger Waters fully supports the proposed changes. To add " Gilmour refused to be listed as a co-producer yet insisted on receiving a cut of the production royalties", is too strong an interpretation of "The big argument was whether he'd (Gilmour) be getting a production credit and a point off the top for producing the record. He didn't produce it. He didn't want it made. He was disinterested. He did, however, insist on taking a point of the top." I think the original wording is better - "After months of poor relations, and following a final confrontation, Gilmour was removed from the credit list as producer, at his own insistence", which is cited to Mark Blake, a secondary source, which we ]. I do not support this proposed change to the article. ] (]) 19:38, 17 August 2014 (UTC)
::::::], since you know I'm with the civility police I'd prefer it if you didn't use those words. ], it seems pretty clear to me that on the matter of content PoD is absolutely correct. If a site ''reproduces'' material, than we should have to be able to trust that site to reproduce accurately. None of this would be necessary if the "original" publication were available, and--behold!--now it is, below. An accurate transcript is nice, as Graham says, but an FA should cite the real thing. ] (]) 19:53, 17 August 2014 (UTC)

::::::::PoD was right to not accept the edit; it was sourced to a fan cite that is riddled with copyright violations and adware cookies.

That the transcript was accurate is irrelevant; we had no proof of this until I dug into my collection. ] (]) 21:09, 17 August 2014 (UTC)
