Nothing really, I just prefer full spelling of months (i.e. January, instead of "Jan." or "Jan"). It's just personal preference. Also, some interrelated text consolidated. Quis separabit? 21:15, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

But if there is anything you really object to, just fix it as you like. It's not priority for me. Quis separabit? 21:30, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

Cut-and-paste move

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give User:Lwarrenwiki/Pointed Accounts of People You Know a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Pointed Accounts of People You Know. 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. 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.

Steven Brust Question

You've recently made quite a few changes to Steven Brust's wikipedia page. I think another change should be made, unrelated to your changes, but I'd like a second opinion. Since you seem to be somewhat invested in the page, I figure you would have an educated opinion on this.

I've just begun re-reading his Vlad Taltos (Dragaeran) series chronologically, following the order on this page, and I've noticed an omission. The Prologue of the book "Jhereg" is chronologically the very first story involving Vlad -- the prologue details Vlad's acquisition of Loiosh as a familiar when Vlad is 16. Since precedent has already been set with the Dragon & Issola books being broken up on the chronological listing, I think the prologue of Jhereg should be added as the very first chronological entry.

If you agree, then please feel free to add it for me (I am inexperienced at editing wikipedia and am afraid I'll screw something up).

• @Lxvball: Alex, thanks for the suggestion, and the vote of confidence! I believe you are right. I have been editing for only about a year, and if you make any mistakes, or find you need a hand to make it look right, I will gladly show you how to fix them up, but by all means jump in and do it. As they say around here: Be bold and learn by doing. Good luck! Lwarrenwiki (talk) 13:30, 20 June 2014 (UTC)

Scott Miller (pop musician)

I just revert a big chunk in the article. It appears you added the same material twice, including double infoboxes and ref section. Bgwhite (talk) 00:29, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

@Bgwhite: Wow. That was an extreme cut-and-paste typo on my part! Odd that it didn't cause major visible errors in the rendering of the article, which is why it went unnoticed for so long. I have restored the intervening edits, and I very much appreciate your help and diligence. Thanks! Lwarrenwiki (talk) 02:43, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

If reverting my edits fixed it, it must have been me. I have no idea how. Sorry about that :( SteveStrummer (talk) 03:35, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

@SteveStrummer: No, the error was mine before you touched the article. The entire article was duplicated, smack in the middle of one of the references! I guess all the brackets and braces balanced, and the citation template failed gracefully (but silently) when it encountered a parameter that was 50K long. Lwarrenwiki (talk) 03:54, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

Oh oh oh oh, i see now! OK, good, now I can go back to listening to Lolita Nation :) SteveStrummer (talk) 04:02, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

@SteveStrummer: Bless your heart, Steve. I started editing Wikipedia a year ago for basically one reason: he deserved better than a stub, and if nobody else was going to do him justice, then it was up to me to try. Since then, I've gotten a lot of enjoyment from much broader involvement in Wikipedia, but this is still the article that matters most to me, and that I keep coming back and trying to improve.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages.

Garbage (album)

Sorry for interrupt. I should knew no one discuss for it. In 'Composition and style' section, as from Allmusic reviewer says "having all the trappings of alternative rock -- off-kilter arrangements, occasional bursts of noise, a female singer with a thin, airy voice", however it says "comes off as pop". Honestly it does not classified as a pop album. Why don't you ask User:Andrzejbanas to discuss on talk page first. 183.171.162.152 (talk) 03:07, 15 July 2014 (UTC)

@183.171.162.152: Sorry, you've got the wrong person here; I don't believe I've ever edited the page for Garbage (album), and I'm afraid I have no idea what you're talking about. Lwarrenwiki (talk) 03:48, 15 July 2014 (UTC)

Hooray!

Favorite music edit :D SteveStrummer (talk) 15:56, 8 August 2014 (UTC)
