[edit]

Hello, I'm Waggie. I noticed that in this edit to List of gastropods described in 2016, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Waggie (talk) 07:11, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Atenia quadrani a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Atenia quadrasi. 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 for registered users, 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:Requests for history merge. Thank you. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she/they) 21:58, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The above message is automated. Just to elaborate, please note that I have untagged Atenia quadrani for deletion, but have instead tagged Atenia quadrasi for a special kind of maintenance deletion, where it will be deleted but the other page will then immediately be moved there. Atenia quadrani will still exist as a redirect to Atenia quadrasi, which is generally desirable, even if the title is incorrect, because people have 15 years of relying on that page existing. Instead, I will tag it as an {{r from incorrect name}} ("r" = "redirect"). If you do think the redirect should be deleted, please see WP:RFD. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she/they) 22:02, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
