September 2022 edit

  Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Visa requirements for Polish citizens a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. 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.

Hi, yes indeed I wasn't aware of that function. I will use it from now. Thank you. Thearones (talk) 13:59, 24 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Citations needed edit

Hey,

you added about 100 times the "citations needed" inlay in the article Visa requirements for German citizens.

You also added this inlay in the column "Visa requirement" of the table List of territories, disputed areas or restricted zones. Did you check beforehand, if the references given in the Notes column are sufficient?

For example Dafur: In the Notes there is already a reference given, that a travel permit is needed. But you stated that a citation is needed for that in the row further left. WikiPate (talk) 15:08, 19 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
