Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. This information is already present in Glass#Behaviour_of_antique_glass. Please research your topic before creating a new article. You may find that another editor has already had the same idea, saving you time and effort. (aeropagitica) (talk) 23:03, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
- Agh! I was trying to move that information out of Glass#Behaviour_of_antique_glass. Copying the information was the very idea. I was doing it pursuant to a suggestion made by another user that (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Glass#But_.2Ais.2A_glass_a_liquid.3F_Don.27t_ask_wikipedia_apparently....) that the section on 'glass as a liquid' be spun off as a seperate article, following the Summary Style principle. Go on then: enlighten me on the procedure for carrying off that kind of maneouvre. --Danward 23:16, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
Look - can I have my article back and some sort of protection against this happening again. Pursuant to a suggestion made by a user on the Talk:Glass page that the section on 'glass as a liquid' was getting too long and should be spun off as a seperate article (on the Summary Style principle) I was trying to move that information into a seperate article. Otherwise - enlighten me on an appropriate procedure for going about doing what I was trying to achieve before it was all deleted. --Danward 15:47, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
- Fair enough, I have moved the content to User:Danward/Sandbox, where you can edit without intervention. Regards, (aeropagitica) (talk) 15:54, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
"Doctrine of equity"
[edit]Fine by me, I never added that statement to begin with. The first paragraph of Equity (law) pretty much sums up your point.--Pericles of AthensTalk 09:24, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
