Page "moves"

edit

  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 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, 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. 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.

Renaming of pages

edit

Glad to see you here. The English Wikipedia can use help on Belarusian articles and every new contributor is appreciated.

Noted you attempted to move Shchuchyn to Ščučyn. Since this is the English-language Wikipedia, I believe the convention is to use BGN/PCGN romanization of Belarusian rather than the Belarusian Latin alphabet (or the Polish - that would be perfectly correct in the Polish language Wikipedia) or any other orthographic convention. This is because the typical keyboard does not support the Belarusian Latin alphabet letter options like Š or č, so searches become difficult. If this doesn't make sense, please contact me on my talk page and we can jointly figure out whether we need to change the convention.

The first several months on Wikipedia can be a challenge - some folks find the continuous edits by others difficult to work with, but hang with us. In the past few years, Wikipedia has gotten continuously better. With your help it will be better still.
