White collar-1

edit

Hi @AYRhodes, Leeto13, and Aznchoco1:

If you lose edits, it's often worth looking for them by examining your contributions (which can be accessed though a link on the top right of each page (right next to the log out link). Page histories can also help you figure out what went wrong.

Short answer is that your edits are at User:Aznchoco1/White_Collar-1.

On April 9, Aznchoco1 created the White Collar 1 article (which for convenience I will call Article 1), which you worked on and improved until last night. Last night Aznchoco1 also created the White_Collar-1 article (which I will call Article 2); AYRhodes blanked Article 1 and redirected it to Article 2. I'm guessing what you were trying to do was to move the article to the proper title. (The correct way to rename an article is to use the Move button, which is under the More tab in the upper right corner, next to the search box.)

That, presumably, is where User:CactusWriter noticed something odd going on. They fixed the problem by moving Article 1 from White Collar 1 to White Collar-1 and, to preserve your later edits, move Article 2 from White Collar-1 to User:Aznchoco1/White_Collar-1.

Looking at things, I'm guessing that Article 2 is the version you want. Since it's based on Article 1. For the sake of copyright, both histories should be preserved. I could move Article 2 into the mainspace and Article 1 into your sandbox, or I could merge the two histories (so they're all preserved in the same spot). I think the latter would be better, but it will make the page history look a bit odd. For now, you probably want to work on User:Aznchoco1/White_Collar-1.

By the way, I noticed that none of you are registered on the course page. Please go to Education_Program:Washington_University_in_St._Louis/Biological_Clocks_-_Chronobiologists_(Spring_2015) and register; that makes it possible for us see what you're up to and help out (if need be). It also allows your instructor to find your contributions. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:59, 23 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
