Just awful

This page was in terrible shape, and it had sat that way for nearly 2 years. Apparently people who like tube noise boxes are inherently inept at editing Misplaced Pages. Just to reiterate the principals of WP:

You are not allowed to put original research in an article. That means you can never say something like "the Butt Probe can obviously be heard all over the new Anal Cunt record". While it may seem obvious, and the singer might even say "here comes the part with the Metasonix box" you can't put your own observations in a WP article.

Rumors and forums are not acceptable references (I can't even believe I have to write that). You might think all this academic junk is meaningless on a page for noise boxes, but these rules are what keep Misplaced Pages from being a free-for-all jumble of BS. Try Encyclopedia Dramatica or Uncyclopedia if you want to cite "something I heard from a guy on a forum" as a reference.

Eric Barbour, I think you should stay away from this page, or at least do what other people do when editing their own article: come up with a sock puppet so it's not so obvious when you're using this page for self-promotion. Conical Johnson (talk) 01:37, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Is it really that awful?

This page seems well balanced and informative. Eric Barbour has made significant contributions to the art of designing vacuum synthesisers for audio applications and his equipment is used by many famous musicians. He's an aurthority on vacuum tubes and their application and has written material for Vacuum Tube Valley magazine which has been in print since 1995. It seems reasonable to allow him a place on Misplaced Pages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Moogolplex (talk • contribs) 17:59, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
