Sydney Cook

 * Vote closed. Result: delete (4 Deletes; no properly registered dissent; 2 keeps from likely sockpuppet whose combined 3 edits were only for this article and this VfD entry; person never identified). ~ Jeff Q (talk) 23:59, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, unless evidence of notability is provided. I couldn't find anything on anyone notable by this name. ~ UDScott 20:54, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
 * No deletion! I think Wikiquote should not delete this article! It is a great quote. If Wikiquote deleted this article, everyone would know that Wikiquote is a website that dosen't care how good the quote is, but how long the article is!
 * I reformatted the above posting after it was incorrectly created as a new article entry. Although it did not name the article it was intended for, I deduced it was for "Sydney Cook" because it is stylistically very similar to the subsequent incorrectly formatted vote (see below) and was recorded only minutes before that vote. These and the fact that this vote is the registered user's sole contribution to date (4 minutes after registering and 6 minutes before the anon vote) make me strongly suspect that this is the same person engaged in sockpuppetry, although perhaps without realizing it. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 02:54, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

 * I reformatted the above posting after it was incorrectly created as a new article entry. Although it did not name the article it was intended for, I deduced it was for "Sydney Cook" because the unsigned IP user's only other contribution was to create this article. I could have just struck the vote, as it is each user's responsibility to read and follow the instructions to avoid having their unsigned votes struck, but the preceding similar vote from a registered user made me want to address the problem more comprehensively. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 02:54, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. A search turns up a character named "Sydney Cook" from the TV show Walker, Texas Ranger, and so it's possible that the quote is from that character. I don't have any way to confirm this, however, and my gut feeling tells me that the quote is not from said character. &mdash;LrdChaos 14:46, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
