== Quote from Uncut == |

] 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. The material should be restored. <span class="vcard"><span class="fn">]</span> (<span class="nickname">Pigsonthewing</span>); ]; ]</span> 11:22, 17 August 2014 (UTC) |

::::::::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) |

== Recording: Gilmour receives co-producer's royalties on The Final Cut. == |
|
|
|
|
|
Parrot of Doom: I know you're not a stupid man, so how did you fail to notice that I cited Nicholas Schaffner's ''Saucerful of Secrets: The Pink Floyd Odyssey''? The ''Uncut'' magazine interview with Roger Waters that is reproduced, as you complain, at pinkfloydz.com, is a ''secondary'' source. You asked me to explain how pinkfloydz.com is a reliable source. My answer to that is: ''I don't ''have'' to!'' |
|
|
|
|
|
Why do I say that? |
|
|
|
|
|
Because the exact same information is in the Nicholas Schaffner book we've been citing, as if it were holy scripture, for "years, absolutely ''years!''" I cited it properly, with a page number . . . and you need not dust off your copy and thumb through the book, because HERE'S A LINK to books.google.com. From page 257 of ''Saucerful of Secrets'': |
|
|
|
|
|
http://books.google.com/books?id=xfqremepxrkC&pg=PA257#v=onepage&q&f=false |
|
|
|
|
|
Fourth paragraph, second to last: |
|
|
<blockquote>'''"Dave did finally agree to relinquish his position—but not his final cut of the producers' royalties."'''</blockquote> |
|
|
|
|
|
Is there something wrong with Schaffner, now? Explain that one to me. Because as it is, it looks like your reversion was intellectually dishonest, reverting the whole edit because you didn't like the ''back-up'' citation. |
|
|
|
|
|
Schaffner's book has been out since late 1990. Why is there any uncertainty in your mind? Did you read it only once? Or is it just that you oppose any edit that casts David Gilmour in a less-than-flattering light?? That kinda seems to be the case. |
|
|
|
|
|
If you don't like the cited source of ''Uncut'' Magazine's interview with Roger Waters, that's not a problem. Other statements in this article use Schaffner as their sole source; there's no reason this one can't do that, too. If you don't want to link to pinkfloydz.com, we can remove the link and leave the citation as '''Roger Waters interview, ''Uncut'' Magazine, June 2004'''. |
|
|
|
|
|
I do realize the pinkfloydz.com site LOOKS a bit dodgy, but I believe they transcribed the interview accurately (despite a lack of proper formatting and some questionable punctuation). For your edification, this is what was said: |
|
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><small>WATERS: '''The big argument '''''' was whether he’d 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 to be made. He was disinterested in the album. He didn’t get the production credit. He did, however, insist on taking the point off the top.''' |
|
|
|
|
|
UNCUT: '''How did he manage that?''' |
|
|
|
|
|
WATERS: '''Just by being obdurate. That was when we really fell out, over all that. He and I faced off about it, and Nick... I had this one telephone conversation with Nick about that. He said “I think you’re completely right about this, but I’m going to side with Dave cos that’s where my bread’s buttered.”'''</small></blockquote> |
|
|
|
|
|
You really don't trust a web site that managed to transcribe a word like "obdurate" correctly? Well, that's you. That's not me. I really couldn't care less that this was a Featured Article, 'cause it's still a pretty bad, biased article. You've fought my every attempt to balance it out, and it seems your reverts are oriented towards protecting public perceptions of David Gilmour. |
|
|
|
|
|
Hopefully, you have no arguments left to make. Schaffner is reliable and so is the ''Uncut'' article, but if you object to the pinkfloydz.com link, I have no problem whatsoever with de-linking it. The ''information'', however, STAYS! |

== 1987 Salewicz interview == |
|
:{{edit conflict}} We should stick with the Mark Blake citation as it is a ] as opposed to the Uncut interview, which is a primary one. It is also more recent (2011) than Schaffner (1992). Blake writes; ...the absence of Gilmour's name (was) the result of a later disagreement during the final sessions for the album, (p. 296) and "the upshot of the argument was that Gilmour's name as producer was removed from the final credits, although it was agreed that he would still be paid". (p. 298). I suggest that the sentence in question is changed to: |
|
|
::"After months of poor relations, and following a final confrontation, Gilmour was removed from the credit list as producer, but would still be paid his production royalties.<nowiki><ref>{{Harvnb|Blake|2008|p=298}}</ref></nowiki> |
