North Terrace, Adelaide edit
move procedure edit
I noticed your redirect of Pope John Paul II Park to the more complete Pope John Paul II Park Reservation which you developed. Just to let you know, the correct procedure would be to "move" the previously existing article to a new name, then develop further at the new name. That would put a redirect from the old to new name, and it would preserve the edit history in the article, together. And it would also move the Talk page of the article. Moves should not be done by creating new article at target and cut-and-pasting from the old article name. In this case, there were only 3 prior edits in the main article's history and I don't care so much, but the way this was done did lose that edit history. And it lost some content, namely the better formed footnote in the version i had created. I put that into the current article, though. By the way, there is a helpful service, Requested Moves, at wp:RM, where you can request administrators' assistance in implementing moves and in re-combining edit histories. For any article moves that might be disputed, you should think about posting there to get other views. Hope this is helpful. doncram (talk) 15:43, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
