Sorry, I'm relatively new to this whole Wikipedia thing, so I made several n00b mistakes of epic proportions, but nothing that can't be fixed. Hopefully. Here's what happened, step by step:

1. I moved this page several weeks ago from the "capitalization convention" page of Freenote to the "correct" (at least in accordance to the original band) page of FREENOTE, only to have it changed back. I personally believe an artist's name should always be printed by the way he/she/they choose to be represented, so I changed it back. But without thinking, I did a simple cut & paste job (which is, of course, a big no-no).

2. I tried to fix this by moving Freenote to FREENOTE, but that can't happen unless somebody deletes everything in FREENOTE. So, I tried to find a way around it by moving FREENOTE to the nonexistent page Freen0te, but that ended up backfiring. Now there are three open pages, and nothing is where it's supposed to be.

I propose that FREENOTE be established as the main article, with a redirect from Freenote, and that Freen0te be permanently deleted.

Of course, the whole debate stems from the naming conventions of rock groups. Given that the Japanese supergroup SMAP is also presented in all caps on Wikipedia, shouldn't FREENOTE be treated the same way?

 * Redirects are cheap. Admins are in the process of deleting the other names, you can then move it wherever you want it to be and create whatever redirects you want. However, AFD isn't the place for this - use WP:RM to request a move. Stifle (talk) 16:04, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
