Hello, Ovetove, and thank you for your contributions!
I wanted to let you know it seems an article you worked on, Dan T. Sehlberg, is copied from another Wikipedia page, Dan Sehlberg. It's fine to do this as long as you provide the following information in the edit summary:
- a link to the article you copied from
- the date you copied it
You can do this now by editing the page, making any minor edit to the article, and adding the above information into the edit summary.
If you're still not sure how to fix the problem, please leave a message at the help desk. It's possible that I made a mistake, so feel free to remove the tag I placed on the article.
Thanks again for helping build the free encyclopedia! MadmanBot (talk) 14:02, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
I made a misstake. The authors name Is Dan T. Sehlberg and i created the first misspelled page Dan Sehlberg but as i Can't rename the page I created a correct title: Dan T Sehlberg. Ovetove (talk) 14:09, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

editIf I delete Dan Sehlburg, what do you want to happen to Dan T. Sehlburg?—Kww(talk) 21:50, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
Dan T. Sehlberg is the correct article so it can remain so i can work on the article and make it better with better sources and so on. No redirect from that page to any other spelling.Ovetove (talk) 22:19, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
- Unless there are other Dan Sehlburgs with whom he might be confused, our usual practice is to use the shorter form of the name, and to create redirects from other ways in which his name might be spelled. We would certainly never delete the redirects in any case, since their entire purpose is to steer the reader to the actual article. Instead of dithering over the middle initial, I very strongly advise you to work on improving the article itself. --Orange Mike | Talk 22:22, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
AS he is swedish he is often confused with Dan Sehlberg, another Swedish businessman. That's the main reason for having just one article:Dan T. SehlbergOvetove (talk) 22:29, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
- The only current source uses "Dan Sehlberg" and there are no other hits to reliable sources on google news or google books for either Dan T nor Dan. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 23:54, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
Content requires sources
editHello, I'm TheRedPenOfDoom. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Dan T. Sehlberg, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 13:53, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
