Newton Stewart

Hi. The text of this article is suspiciously similar to Newton Stewart Business Association's home page. The bulk of it was added by you on the 14 September 2005. Can you explain this? --Colin°^Talk 14:54, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

RE:Braveheart

Friend, you messed up my talk page. Also, I do not know what you are talking about. Please go and look at the Braveheart page again. Regards, - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 13:40, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

Steve, I don't know what you mean by your question. Check the Braveheart page again please, you'll probably find someone else made the comments you are referring to. - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 18:18, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

Please do never ever again "move" pages by cut and paste, as you did to Big Ben. It is quite some work to fix this (we don't cut and paste so the history gives the correct author attribution). Thank you, and happy editing, Kusma (討論) 19:59, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Lg lyrita.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Lg lyrita.gif. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 01:31, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi

Are you by any chance the same Stevo who asked about LNotP conductors on the Radio 3 board, or is it just coincidence? David Underdown 15:09, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

George Herbert

Nice work on the poems set to music. It would be even better if there were some citations -- an article that mentions them, or some links to one or more (all?) of the music. Lou Sander 18:06, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Toni Arthur

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Toni Arthur, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

War Requiem

Hi, wouldn't it be best to create another article for the film maybe? It's very crammed down there to place film infobox, film image, cast and all, plus the categories will become too many for the page. From the film article I could send to "Main article" from the plot section to the music theme. So I was thinking to substitute your redirect with the film article, if you have no objection.

John Reith

Hi. I am interested in your contribution to the John Reith article having contributed material myself in an attempt to clean it up. What I am most interested in is your comment about the faith of John Reith's father, a minister.

I see that you have made a correction based upon an interview with Reith but it is not clear whether your correction refers to the denomination that Reith belonged to or the denomination of Reith's father.

It was my understanding that the previous text (prior to your edit) was correct because it referred to Reith's father and not to Reith himself.

I followed the links on the Reith article to see where they led (since your edit was made) and unfortunately they now lead to more confusion and I don't know what the answer is.

Because I have a personal interest in setting this account straight having contributed material elsewhere based upon the previous information (prior to your edit), I would like to work with you to determine what the correct version is. Fragilethreads 14:43, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Reith's father (and Reith himself) were members of the United Free Church of Scotland, which amalgamated with the established Church of Scotland in the 1920s. Subsequent confusion has arisen (almost everywhere, it seems) because the Free Church of Scotland (and the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland), considerably more doctrinaire organisations, had virtually the same name. It is this one which is regularly used to depict a certain austerity of outlook (e.g. the controversy generated when Lord Mackay of Clashfern, a Free Presbyterian Church elder, attended a Roman Catholic funeral of a friend, against the advice of his church). Reith's own austerity is regularly ascribed to his being a member of this Free Church (notably by John Freeman, in the example I cite) which is incorrect. Reith could not have been eligible for consideration as High Commissioner had he been a member of the (so-called) 'Wee Free'.

My point was to try to clarify that Reith was a member of the established Church and not any other 'faction'. Though I accept his beliefs were considerably more austere than many in the Kirk. I'd add, though, that he frequently decried his own inability to live up to these standards.--Stevouk 22:51, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Unfortunately your single citation creates more confusion than ever because Reith states that his church does not like being called by a certain name, but it does not mean that it was not known by that name originally. My interest is in the belief of Reith's father, the younger Reith. What was Reith's father a minister of? Your conclusion that Reith could not have held a certain post later in life does not address this problem at all because anything is possible. Reith could have changed his membership, modified his views, anything. But I am addressing the starting point of his birth and his father's belief. A talk show is not a good reference at all and Reith's comments are ambiguous. For instance, the Mormons are not really the Mormons but the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Sometimes groups adopt the popular name (like Mormons) if they can't shake it off. Asa Briggs is a credible historian and is the most prolific and widely respected authority on the history of the BBC who has a lot to say about Reith. So what I would like to see a solid source with publication date, author and page number, etc. Fragilethreads 15:14, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:MilkyWayLloyd.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:MilkyWayLloyd.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia 20:21, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Lucerne Festival Orchrstra

Thanks for creating this article. I am wonder that this orchestra is actually formed much earlier then 2003, I think is 1940s something but in some reason the orchestra was dismisseed. And Abbado reformed again. Two reasons there, firstly, I looked up it in somewhere in Wikipedia, but I just forgot it. Secondly, I have a CD which is performed by the orchestra in 1949. What's your opinion? (Addaick 13:24, 27 August 2007 (UTC))

Image source problem with Image:Argo1.gif

Image Copyright problem

This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:Argo1.gif.

Replaceable fair use Image:Christiebiog.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Christiebiog.jpg. I noticed the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 18:45, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Sam on Boffs' Island

You got there first! Mind you, I have been meaning to create the page for over a year. Where did you source your information from? Do you know if the programmes still exist?

I can add a reference which will ensure the page is kept: Oliver Postgate did (some/all of) the animated sections, and this is mentioned in his autobiography.

You may also be interested to hear that I have a copy of the SoBI annual, from 1972?, and also two copies of each of two of the schools' workbooks (unfortunately, heavilly scribbled-in, but then I was only little...)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Markfoster.jpg

Thank you for uploading Image:Markfoster.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 14:10, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Chinaman

I'm not sure about the "distinction" between witting and unwitting use of the term Chinaman. I'm not sure how any use could be unwitting; the only sense where that would be applicable would be when someone uses the term "Chinaman" without realizing that some people don't consider it politically correct. But then again, this aspect refers to the sensitivity displayed by some regarding the term, and not the meaning of the term itself. Thanks, Twalls (talk) 13:46, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Strathclyde.GIF}

Thank you for uploading Image:Strathclyde.GIF. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Fair use rationale for Image:Chambersgothenburg.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Chambersgothenburg.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Replaceable fair use Image:Markfoster.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Markfoster.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Gr1st (talk) 14:26, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Copyright problems

Hello. Concerning your contribution, The Martyrdom of St Magnus, please note that Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images obtained from other web sites or printed material, without the permission of the author(s). This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://books.google.com/books?id=njAzAT5wbCYC. As a copyright violation, The Martyrdom of St Magnus appears to qualify for deletion under the speedy deletion criteria. The Martyrdom of St Magnus has been tagged for deletion, and may have been deleted by the time you see this message.

If you believe that the article or image is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:

• If you have permission from the author, leave a message explaining the details at Talk:The Martyrdom of St Magnus and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
• If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at Talk:The Martyrdom of St Magnus with a link to where we can find that note.
• If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on Talk:The Martyrdom of St Magnus.

However, for textual content, you may simply consider rewriting the content in your own words. Thank you. Wronkiew (talk) 20:32, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

I found the book "Sacred Music Drama" (2006) by Carl Gerbrandt, by doing a Google search for text I copied from the article. The section starting with "It was during this battle..." and ending with "...any contemporary totalitarian state" is a match to page 123 of that book. The section "The work was commissioned..." to "...Kirkwall on 18 June 1977" matches page 122. The sentence starting with "Magnus was a twelfth-century earl..." matches the page linked at the end of this article. This may be a good subject to write an article on since it appears to have excellent source material. You might want to read Wikipedia:Article development to avoid these problems in the future. If you do intend to resolve the copyright problems and improve the article, please follow the instructions on the speedy deletion tag to keep the article from being deleted. Wronkiew (talk) 21:08, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

Hey, if you are the original author of that content, or if you can show it was a collaborative work that can be relicensed to be compatible with Wikipedia, then please do add it to Wikipedia. Make sure you indicate that you are the original author as explained at WP:IOWN. The page has been deleted for now, but you can get the content back by sending a message to Orangemike. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help. Wronkiew (talk) 15:07, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Please do not add content without citing reliable sources, as you did to George Lazenby.

Ivor Novello

Hi. I see you have created a navbox for Novello. Novello's article is rather perfunctory and could definitely use expansion. It would be great if you could work on it. Best regards, -- Ssilvers (talk) 22:35, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for your edits to Glamorous Night. Would you kindly take a look at WP:OVERLINK? It discourages linking common English words and well-known place names, because you don't want the reader clicking away from the article except where more explanation may be needed. All the best! -- Ssilvers (talk) 23:17, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

Edit summaries

When using the "undo" function, you should leave a specific edit summary except when reverting vandalism or similar nonconstructive editing. In the case of your recent edit to Lesley Langley, rather than leaving the simple "undo" message in your edit summary, it would have been better to leave a summary like "restoring questioned material with source added."

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Stevouk! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 7 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 942 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

1. Philip Lane (composer) - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Thanks for uploading File:Grenfellcd.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use.

Proposed deletion of Miles Petit

The article Miles Petit has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Long term unreferenced BLP.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. TexasAndroid (talk) 05:05, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 20:54, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

File source problem with File:EdwardVIIIcoin.jpg.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:EdwardVIIIcoin.jpg.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear.

However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4.

The survey takes only 6 minutes, and the information you provide will not be shared with third parties other than to assist us in analyzing the results of the survey; the WMF will not use the information to identify you. If this invitation  also appears on other accounts you  may  have, please complete the  survey  once only.  If this has been sent to you in error and you have never patrolled new pages, please ignore it. Please click HERE to take part. Many thanks in advance for providing this essential feedback. You are receiving this invitation because you  have patrolled new pages. For more information, please see NPP Survey. Global message delivery 13:25, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

Hi there. I tagged the Gaelic on your page for needing a source and since it appears you added it, I thought I'd better explain - great to have it there but as the formation looks a little odd, it would be good to have the source for the Gaelic, in case you remember where you got it from?

Non-free rationale for File:Waterfield-taylor.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Waterfield-taylor.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:39, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

File:Sir George Burns.jpg needs authorship information

Dear uploader:

The media file you uploaded as File:Sir George Burns.jpg appears to be missing information as to its authorship (and or source), or if you did provide such information, it is confusing for others trying to make use of the image.

It would be appreciated if you would consider updating the file description page, to make the authorship of the media clearer.

Although some images may not need author information in obvious cases, (such where an applicable source is provided), authorship information aids users of the image, and helps ensure that appropriate credit is given (a requirement of some licenses).

• If you created this media yourself, please consider explicitly including your user name, for which: {{subst:usernameexpand|Stevouk}} will produce an appropriate expansion,
  or use the {{own}} template.

• If this is an old image, for which the authorship is unknown or impossible to determine, please indicate this on the file description page.

If you have any questions please see Help:File page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 15:51, 2 July 2012 (UTC)

Better source request for File:Sir George Burns.jpg

Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:

• File:Sir George Burns.jpg

You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 20:56, 21 April 2013 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Jeanbrodie.JPG)

Thanks for uploading File:Jeanbrodie.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:21, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

Revisions to page for Kenneth Alwyn

Hi Stevouk. I posted this message on the Talk page for the Kenneth Alwyn page yesterday, but I am now posting it on your Talk page too to make sure that you get to hear about this.

I have been working for some months on a revised biography for Kenneth Alwyn and am now close to completing this work. I am very mindful of the good work which has been done by previous editors (and I believe that you may have been the original page creator, so I particularly wish to thank you and ensure that you are aware of my changes to avoid any causing offence). I have created a subpage on my user page showing the draft article [1] I am fully aware that the source references are not complete yet, and I am continuing to work on these and will be adding them all to the draft page before it goes live. Please see the draft page for more details. Many thanks! Daubenton Daubenton (talk) 17:26, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Unseen character, but you didn't provide a reliable source.

I have reverted your edit as the fact he endowed the two organisation is an important fact in that it is an example of the generosity of the man. Is the commemoration any more than a recognition of the endowment? Shipsview (talk) 11:08, 4 April 2018 (UTC)

Cut-and-paste move of Draft:Reg Tilsley to mainspace

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Draft:Reg Tilsley a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Reg Tilsley. 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.

Thanks for your contributions to Let Me Try Again. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
