Moving/renaming articles

USLcajun85, I see you recently created Louisiana–Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns. It appears that you copied most of the content from Louisiana's Ragin' Cajuns. If your intent is to rename that later article to the first, what you want to do is execute an article move. What you do not what to do is copy content over to a new article and then redirect the former. Please see: Wikipedia:Moving a page. Thanks. Jweiss11 (talk) 10:59, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

This move has been discussed twice, with no consensus both times. Any move for this page needs to go through the Requested Moves process. --Spyder_Monkey (Talk) 22:51, 10 June 2011 (UTC)

WP:CBBALL Master Table

Please stop adding a redirect into the Master Table at WP:CBBALL. There is no point at all in doing so when the link you're replacing already leads directly to the school's athletics article. There are no redirects on the Master Table anymore (with the exception of the men's basketball programs highlighted by green, which are there as redirects on purpose so their articles can get made) after I just labored for close to a whole week updating that entire list.

June 2011

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to 2011 Louisiana's Ragin' Cajuns football team, without good reason. They need to have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. —Ute in DC (talk) 18:35, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

Please do not move a page to a title that is harder to follow, or move it unilaterally against naming conventions or consensus, as you did to 2010 Louisiana's Ragin' Cajuns football team. This includes making page moves while a discussion remains under way. We have some guidelines to help with deciding what title is best for a subject. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Thank you. —Ute in DC (talk) 18:43, 16 June 2011 (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.
