Deletion of The Union (U.P.Y.O.U.R.S.) article
[edit]Came across this deletion of yours by chance. While I'm not very knowledgeable about the WWE, this article seemed legit (looking at the Google cache). The Union was a stable which certainly did exist within the WWE. So why the deletion? Calzero (talk) 01:17, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
- Sorry, I couldn't find a page with that name. Please specify the exact title including punctuation. Stifle (talk) 12:53, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
- Article The Union (U.P.Y.O.U.R.S) no longer exists. Here is the deletion log. Calzero (talk) 16:01, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
- Ah. I see now.
- I was asked to move that article to The Union (professional wrestling) because it couldn't be moved manually.
- I moved that page, deleting the target page to do so.
- Then I thought that the origin page was a vandalistic redirect (when in fact it was just misspelt, missing a period at the end), so I deleted it.
- The page still exists at the above title and you can feel free to recreate one or more redirects from alternative names to it. Stifle (talk) 20:56, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Renaming pages
[edit]Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Piano's a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Pianos. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut-and-paste-move repair holding pen. Thank you. 65.94.169.222 (talk) 06:43, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
