The result of the debate was - found to be a copyvio - SimonP 04:28, May 13, 2005 (UTC)
The page M.O.P has the same subject as M.O.P. (with a dot on the end), but is more Wikipedia-style. Altough it has less text (measured in words), it is more informative. The text of the page that is voted for, for deletion also seems to be copied from a other source, but I haven't verified that.
- Merge the two articles and make one a redirect, if copyvio concerns are cleared up. The submitter is right--M.O.P. (with the period) feels like copy that came from somewhere else, but a cursory Googling doesn't locate it. I don't know what the correct name for the merged article should be. Does the period belong or not? --TenOfAllTrades (talk/contrib) 20:03, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: forget VFD. This article is a copyright violation. The text is lifted directly from here. Please remove the VfD tag and replace it with a copyright violation tag. Kingturtle 20:44, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Done. Any user can add a copyvio tag, by the way—there are instructions for the process at Wikipedia:Copyright problems. --TenOfAllTrades (talk/contrib) 21:21, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
