Happy new one and Tx

Hi Hj, a happy and productive 2009 to you and your dears! And thanks for [this]. I should have had a closer look at what was ref and what was quote. Thanks for scrrrOOtinizing. Cheers, DVdm (talk) 17:36, 5 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A quote from Zappa is not a proper reference?

Aw, spare me, please. Hey, Joe, what is the deal? Sorry to overbear you with zeal. But using words from Zap, to reference that crap, is propriate with ap - there seems a logic gap. Edit wars are kinda scary and of them I am quite wary... wonder what else could might carry... Using Zappa's words to source his subjective views on a song's protagonist is, in fact, the only correct way to cite a statement which is about Zappa's views on a song's protagonist. To deny - or overlook - that an element of satire is present in his "straight" lyrics is to do the reader a complete disservice. Badger Drink (talk) 17:59, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You inserted a POV statement. And in a footnote you then put in a quote by Zappa which supposedly supports it. You may be onto something, but for a non-Zappa fan, the two things did not make any sense at all: It is not possible for the non-initiated to see how things fit together. If you want to make edits where you use a Zappa quote as a source, it would be better to write something like "Zappa stated that the songs were blablablabla" - and then in the footnote you can either just provide the relevant reference to the TRFZB. Pícking up some quote that should support something in the text could be seen as original research which is not allowed.--HJensen, talk 02:02, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
