John McCain archivingHello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary, which wasn't included with your recent edit to Talk: John McCain. Thank you. -- Comandante {Talk} 20:55, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting it into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is considered undesirable because it splits the page history which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. 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, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. 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 articles that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you.

Also note that PD-EE exemptions are quite narrow. Under which exemption does this image fall exactly? --WikedKentaur (talk) 18:16, 8 December 2008 (UTC) Gaza conflictNo need to get personal and throw f-words around. If the bot is not able to keep the page accessible there is no rule preventing editors to create archives. The page is continously getting way too large (>200 kb, once even >500kb). This excludes users with no high speed connection from editing (or even reading). With the highest respect to the sensitive topic, threads become dead horses much earlier on high traffic sites than elsewhere. If you feel a discussion was archived that was not yet dead please extract this one from the archive, but don't do wholesale reverts. The large size already led to a situation where new threads are added on top instead of the bottom with the older stuff stuck in the middle of an unloadable mess.

For every category you create, you should specify parent categories to which it belongs. You do this by listing the parents near the bottom of the page, each enclosed in double brackets like so: [[Category:People from Nord]] [[Category:Parent2]] Contact me if you have questions about this.

Re cow-orking: I know that. But the average AN/I reader has very short attention span -- it's usually best to not confuse him with the Big Picture. There are other venues for discussing complex affairs.

I posted this on your talk page as well. I am asking editors who have worked on 2008 South Ossetia war to fill out a brief survey. I noticed that you were very involved in editing the article and I was hoping to get your thoughts about your experience there. Thanks Mike Lyons (user: lyonspen) Hi. My name is Mike Lyons and I am a doctoral student at Indiana University in the United States. I am conducting research on the writing and editing of high traffic current events articles on Wikipedia. I have noticed in the talk page archives at 2008 South Ossetia war that you have contributed to the editing or maintenance of the article. I was hoping you would agree to fill out a brief survey about your experience. This study aims to help expand our thinking about collaborative knowledge production. Believe me I share your likely disdain for surveys but your participation would be immensely helpful in making the study a success. A link to the survey is included below. An explanation of my project is included with the survey.

The error was due to incorrect sources. I know that he actually became President of the European Council on 1 December 2009. James Michael 1 (talk) 07:11, 2 December 2009 (UTC) I have changed the section title back to the above. Please do not change it back. The reason is that there is not a reliable source that says he had an affair. I know he has all but confirmed it, but we need a very high quality reference saying that he had an affair before we say it in Wikipedia's voice as fact. Read the Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons policy (the introduction should be enough to get the gist) for more on why.--Chaser (talk) 02:19, 5 December 2009 (UTC) Regarding Holly Sampson and his wife moving out, please see Talk:Tiger_Woods#Alleged_mistresses.

The news reports say it depicts the accident "as its animators imagined it". It's not going in the article for that reason and there's no point in discussing it on the talk page. If you want to chat about the scandal, I'm sure it is being discussed on many web forums, but talk pages are for discussing improvements to the article.--Chaser (talk) 17:42, 11 December 2009 (UTC) Unreferenced BLPsHello Hapsala!
