Meat tenderness histmerge

Hello. The case of Meat tenderness (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) is a bit unusual, so I ought to explain. I created that article on March 17, and plan to expand it further (and I'm the sole author at the moment). Afterwards, I noticed that the old article Tenderizing (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) is actually a sub-topic of that, and I'd like to merge it wholesale into meat tenderness. I'm well-versed with Wikipedia:Merging procedure, and I can still do the simple Full-content paste merger procedure, but here I saw the occasion to merge the histories as well – last edit at Tenderizing was in August 2015, so the two histories would stack on top of each other nicely. (If I had seen the Tenderizing article earlier, I could have expanded it and moved it to new title myself, but alas I hadn't).

If you think preserving the joined history is not worth the bother, I'm fine with that, so I'll do it the old-fashioned way. No such user (talk) 14:12, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

Page Corey Mills deleted

Hi Anthony, I am not aware of how to use Wikipedia other than search. During a link check, just a moment ago, I found that you deleted a page titled, Corey Mills, on March 27, 2016 at 2:44pm. This page was about me; a legitimate source of relevant information. Your remarks state the page was deleted due to unambiguous copyright infringement. I checked the links to which you posted and found that both the pages are editable by my staff, and that one, Festivalnet, is a complete copy from Wikipedia. Basically, one of my writers posted this on Festivalnet from Wikipedia. Neither set of information is copyrighted. Please, explain how it is copyright infringement, and why the page was deleted.

If anything needs to be done, we will work with you to take care of the situation.

Dodge Tomahawk article.

  • I noticed that you replaced the old version of the Dodge Tomahawk article with a draft version made by some other editors.

I guess you were unaware that the article in question was in a stable state after months of dispute, so why was the version changed? This goes completely against all consensus we worked for months to gain, so please change it back. thanks Spacecowboy420 (talk) 13:40, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

Unfortunately, that was the content that was the subject of extensive discussion, we had a lot of issues with undue weight and too much focus on one particular issue, and there was certainly no consensus to change. Unfortunately, I (and others involved in that discussion) are subject to an interaction ban, so I'm not about to get into a lot of detail, without consulting the admins involved in the interaction ban. What I will say, is that the interaction ban was a good idea, and this move has the potential to derail a lot of work that went into making things peaceful. I have no idea who actually requested the move and I won't ask, because it might prompt me into getting involved into things that are against an ANI resolution. I will however ask you to take a quick look into the background of the move, and take whatever action you think is best. thanks Spacecowboy420 (talk) 14:02, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
Thanks mate. You rock. I want to sit back and see if others can decide what to do with next. Spacecowboy420 (talk) 14:17, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
  • Please restore the original article and history while this contested move is being discussed, and until sufficient reason for a move is established. The move is not to rename the article. No reasonable reason has been given for it. It does not solve a technical or editorial issue, and it does remove the entire edit history including previous versions of the article which go back several years. Thank you. --Tsavage (talk) 15:31, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

Move request please

You helpfully moved a page to Social justice warrior after standard process at WP:REQMOVE.

It was unilaterally moved back with no discussion.

The more commonly used term in secondary sources is indeed the downscale version, not the uppercase version, which you had helpfully moved it to, Social justice warrior.

Can you please move it back to Social justice warrior, as per the prior WP:REQMOVE that you closed (wisely requested by 97198), and protect the redirect to prevent further unilateral page moves done without discussion ?

Thank you very much for your time and your admin actions,

Can you also please merge the old history from here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Social_justice_warrior_(version_2)&redirect=no into the page at Social justice warrior ? I see there's some relevant history of PROD that I'd like to be able to link in the {{Article history}} template on the talk page. Thank you ! — Cirt (talk) 22:23, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

Undo move request

Hello Anthony. Could you please undo this move request. It's not "uncotroversial". In fact, Thewolfchild has a previous move request in for this, but because of an error in the templating, it was not published to the WP:RM listing. Thus, it absolutely isn't an "uncontroversial" request, but is an out-of-process request in the middle of a concurrent WP:RM. I'm going to try to fix the templating of the RM on my end (this may "reset" the date of publishing...), to get the original request published to WP:RM. --IJBall (contribstalk) 03:15, 7 April 2016 (UTC) (Correcting: it looks like it was published to WP:RM afterall. But my original undo request still stands. --IJBall (contribstalk) 03:22, 7 April 2016 (UTC)) (edit conflict)

I don't see how it's a "controversial" move. Using "2001-2014" looks better than "2001-14" and the former style is used in most article titles with a range of years. Also, a "template error" certainly isn't my fault. I filed a move request on the talk page and no one even responded to it, (nevermind contesting it), for a week, so that's why I filed it as uncontroversial. How can it be controversial if no one cares? - theWOLFchild 03:24, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
You don't make "uncontroversial move requests" in the middle of a Requested move request because, by definition, it's not "uncontroversial". Beyond that WP:IDONTLIKEIT is not a valid reason to ignore a clear guideline like MOS:DATERANGE – IOW, what you think "looks good" isn't relevant. (Further MOS:BADDATEFORMAT doesn't even apply in this case.) --IJBall (contribstalk) 03:29, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
Just to be clear, when you made the first move, there was no discussion. But now that there is a discussion, you're moving it back, in the middle of said discussion...? Do I have this right? - theWOLFchild 05:03, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
Generally, you're supposed to roll back to the version before the controversial changes were made, and then discuss. That's pretty much the hallmark of WP:BRD. --IJBall (contribstalk) 12:29, 7 April 2016 (UTC)
Nope. But isn't that part of the fun of being an admin? - theWOLFchild 05:36, 7 April 2016 (UTC)

Thank you for your work on speedy deletions. I recreated a page that you deleted to implement Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Attention whore (2nd nomination) Salvio is a generally sensible editor and I have seen nothing that would override that decision.

Hi, you closed the move discussion at Watt/I-80 West with the reason "page moved, discussion has run 66 days", which is true but not really relevant. By far the most support was for another version of the title, so I don't see how your close reflected consensus.

User:Johnbod/Etruscan architecture

Hi Anthony! could you move this to mainspace over the current redirect at Etruscan architecture. I've just realized it does have an earlier history - for some reason (complete idiocy?) it was only made a redirect in 2009. The histories are sequential rather than parallel, so I hope they can be merged. A few bits of the old text can be salvaged. Many thanks, Johnbod (talk) 16:22, 20 April 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Harriet Tubman

Automatic archiving was recently instituted at this page but the editor who wrote the code put in an errant counter (setting it to 9 when I think it should have been set to maybe 2?). Anyway, so now there is an Archive 1 and an Archive 9 and (of course) no linkage on the main talk page to show that a second archive page has been instituted since9 does't normally come after "1"... I know content now has to be moved around/deleted/renamed/etc... Could you please take a look at it? This is the edit history. I posted on the talk page about this at Talk:Harriet Tubman#Error in archiving so if you do get around to fixing it, it would be great if you posted an update there.

Technical moves

I strongly object to having Godsy undo moves as "uncontested technical moves" [3] and request these be put through normal process.

Histmerge of 1985 Rapel Lake earthquake

Hi there, you seem to have performed a histmerge without looking at the page discussion, please revert it asap as "1985 PIchilemu earthquake" is the most common name of the earthquake as mentioned in scholarly sources (see Jstor, GOogle Books, etc.) --191.112.9.6 (talk) 18:37, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

1985 Rapel Lake earthquake

Hi! I suggest you to move again the article "1985 Pichilemu earthquake" to "1985 Rapel Lake earthquake", according to the discussion given some time ago in the article, that says: "If you google "1985 Lake Rapel earthquake", the search engine gives you about 46,000,000 results and "1985 Pichilemu earthquake" gives only 56,400 results. As WP:COMMONNAME applies here, the most used name is the Rapel Lake and not Pichilemu." And also, I'm suspecting that the IP addrees that suggest you to move back the article was an IP address related to User:Diego Grez-Cañete, who was blocked some time ago because he made disruptive editing and had non-civic attitude, and who was warned about their attitude trying to capitalize or given more relevance than the real to Pichilemu (the city where he come from), even without sources that could validate their relevance or their articles.

Surtees TS14

Hello, I notice you sorted out a muddled situation at the above page and its associated draft, talk-pages etc. This was brought about by the actions of a long-term disruptive IP editor of F1 projects, who after almost a year and over 120 different IP addresses has finally created an account. He has absolutely no concept of Wiki guidelines or policies and the F1 project have been battling with his sub-standard work for some time. In this instance the draft was rejected as not adequately demonstrating notability, whereupon the former IP editor created an account and seemingly copied & pasted the content to mainspace. Thus rather 'gaming' the system in the view of F1 project members. We were wondering if this is an acceptable procedure? Another editor I mentioned it to, suggested bringing it up at WT:WPAFC? Thanks. Regards, Eagleash (talk) 07:23, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

Restoring DJ Many

Is there any way we can restore DJ Many since now it's notable. I could have tried with DJ MANY and then redirect, but since I have been researching this subject and know it is NOTABLE, I want to take part of it.

Fallen Angels (upcoming Bob Dylan album) listed at Redirects for discussion

 

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Fallen Angels (upcoming Bob Dylan album). Since you had some involvement with the Fallen Angels (upcoming Bob Dylan album) redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so.

  Thanks for taking up history merges, as you did with synthetic cannabinoids. It is such an odd and specialized task that I appreciate when someone is available who understands it and will perform it quickly on request from the queue. Blue Rasberry (talk) 15:14, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

  • After submitting the request, I saw that the "to" name was redlinked, indicating that I misread the "What links here" and it was not a move over redirect. So I went to do the move myself, got some kind of server connection error, and had to retry. At the same time it appears you were also moving it. We now have nothing in its "What links here", including the redirects that were there before. I'm not sure what happened here, or how to repair it. Thanks, by the way, for your ongoing help with these moves.―Mandruss  22:00, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

Live! with Kelly

Hi, Anthony. I've seen and appreciated your work for a long time, so I hope you don't mind my asking why the exclamation point in the show's title. I can't find one anywhere at http://livekelly.com/#, and in fact that official site seems to prefer no exclamation point, as in front-page text treatments for: "LIVE's Best Halloween show Ever...Seriously", "LIVE Video Archive" and "TOP LIVE VIDEOS". I think the title with the apostrophe-s is telling, since it would have been "LIVE!'s" if the exclamation point were there. And I'm not sure given the talk-page discussion on this that "non-controversial move" was the correct place for this. Can we discuss? With thanks, --Tenebrae (talk) 22:17, 26 May 2016 (UTC)

That's very kind and collegial of you. If I may say so again, you are an exemplary editor and I've always respected your work.--Tenebrae (talk) 15:51, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

I wanted to thank you for performing a WP:HISTMERGE very quickly. Then I looked at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge, and noticed - it's you! It's all you! Several times a day, unceasingly, answering tedious requests... well at least now it's not a thankless task. Thank you. This may not be the glamorous work of blocking vandals, or arguing over page deletions, but it is appreciated. GRuban (talk) 02:00, 28 May 2016 (UTC)

Need your help...

Hi Anthony – I need your help again: SSTflyer just moved The Lying Game (TV series) to The Lying Game despite a recent WP:RM discussion against making that very move, at least at this time (as well as a separate current RM discussion at The Lying Game (disambiguation)). Could you please revert SSTflyer's unprompted moves? Thanks. --IJBall (contribstalk) 02:26, 28 May 2016 (UTC)

Wrong. The Lying Game has been the stable title for the TV series, it should stay there unless there is consensus against it. SSTflyer 02:28, 28 May 2016 (UTC)
@SSTflyer: I was afraid you were going to dig your heals in on this. You are ignoring a WP:RM discussion result. There is simply no excuse for this. If you keep on this path, I'm going to have no choice but to go to WP:PERM and ask that they take a look at revoking your Page mover rights. --IJBall (contribstalk) 02:30, 28 May 2016 (UTC)
(edit conflict) The RM was closed as no consensus. In these cases, where there is no consensus what the title of an article should be, the article is moved back to its long-term stable title. Wayback Machine archives show that The Lying Game has been the title for the TV series in 2011, 2014, 2015, and as recently as April 2016. Restoring the article to where it was located for 5 years is correct here. SSTflyer 02:38, 28 May 2016 (UTC)
As a Page mover, you should not be making moves like this without consensus. I am the first to acknowledge that the IP who did those recent page moves involving The Lying Game articles made things a confusing mess. But Anthony tried to restore some order to this mess, and it should put no one out to wait a month to let the dust settle before performing another WP:RM. I am really disappointed with you on this. --IJBall (contribstalk) 02:43, 28 May 2016 (UTC)
Reverting an undiscussed move is specifically listed as uncontroversial at WP:RMT. There has never been any consensus that the TV series should be moved from The Lying Game to The Lying Game (TV series). When there is no consensus that The Lying Game (TV series) as a title is appropriate, moving back to the long-term stable title is appropriate, and has been done by numerous admins. SSTflyer 02:48, 28 May 2016 (UTC)
While a WP:RM discussion is underway?! I seriously doubt it. --IJBall (contribstalk) 03:01, 28 May 2016 (UTC)

Syrian Civil War

Hi Anthony, on 14 May you moved Syrian Civil War to remove the caps following a technical request, as part of a batch of moves. A subsequent RM discussion was closed to revert this move, so I moved it back today (the redirect was nominated for speedy deletion, which is where I came across this). The move from the caps was not technical due to two issues: 1. There has been a number of RM discussions, and a 2013 discussion gained consensus for the caps; 2. The user who asked for the move is subject to a restriction to not move any pages without gaining consensus, following a 2013 unblock. I have reblocked them for repeatedly breaching that restriction.

Sorry about the page move request for SIndikato. At least it let someone familiar with the sock get involved. And for some reason I never got the ping from the talk page /shrug.--☾Loriendrew☽ (ring-ring) 14:10, 19 June 2016 (UTC)

Copy-paste issue?

Thanks!

I think everything is cleaned up for the myriad pages dealing with Catholicism and Freemasonry. I'm hoping we end up just moving it back to the most neutral title, but we shall see. The history merge needed to be done regardless of any move discussion, so at least that won't get any worse. MSJapan (talk) 04:59, 23 June 2016 (UTC)

Histmerge on Deep K Patel

Hello. Thanks for doing the histmerge on Deep K Patel‎, speedying it was a mistake on my part. Now that it's done, could you delete it? The article has been repeatedly recreated at Deep K. Patel and Deep Patel by a persistent sockfarm (Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Editor2626744), so leaving the redirect is just inviting it to be recreated again. Also, as far as I know there is no connection between Demazière and Deep K Patel, it was just a (bad) attempt to avoid scrutiny. As a redirect is serves no purpose. Thanks.
