Wikipedia:Requests for history merge/Archive 12: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 17:35, 20 March 2012

This page was originally for listing cut and paste moves which could not be repaired due to a then-extant technical limitation. The limitation has since been removed, but this page is still available if you find a cut-and-paste move, and are not able to repair it yourself (there is a procedure for doing it, but 1. only admins can do it, and 2. it's a bit tricky).

Currently the only technical limitation is that category and file description pages can't be moved.

Admins: please read Wikipedia:How to fix cut-and-paste moves and Wikipedia:Requested moves/Closing instructions.

Please read Wikipedia:New histmerge list and Wikipedia talk:New histmerge list.

• Place a {{histmerge|NAME OF PAGE THE ARTICLE WAS CUT FROM}} template at the new location of the article which has been moved through cut and pasting, i.e. on the article where the pasting was done.
• If the issue is clear-cut (straight up cut and paste move to a better title), having this speedy delete tag on the page should be enough. In more complex cases (explained at Wikipedia:How to fix cut and paste moves), please leave a description of the problem under the "Repair requests" section.
• An admin will look the pages over and perform whatever tasks are necessary.
• Once this is done, the admin will post the result here.
• Old requests will be removed after 30 days.

Note: pages tagged with {{histmerge}} are automatically placed in Category:Candidates for history merging.

Please add new requests to the top of the New Requests section. Thanks.

New requests

• Jean-François Sauvé was pasted from Jean-Francois Sauve way back on 23 June 2008‎ by User:LarRan and it should be properly fixed to preserve the edit history. Oonissie (talk) 17:35, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
• Three strikes was pasted from Three strikes (disambiguation). --George Ho (talk) 08:53, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
• Template:Brian Head Welch was moved and expanded to Template:Brian Welch in 22 August 2008, history since then has been modifying the redirect. 65.92.180.130 (talk) 03:46, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
• WT:Odyssey Networks and Talk:Odyssey Network -- talk page became separated from article page after a whole bunch of pagemoves. The old talk page is at Talk:Odyssey Network, further discussions were opened at WT:Odyssey Networks, so the WTspace page should merge into the ArticleTalk-space page, with the discussion showing up there. 65.92.180.130 (talk) 04:01, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

• Hello, it's me again. Please merge the history of Template:Most Imposing Togneme into Template:Togneme. The former page was speedily deleted before I realised what had happened. As its deletion had broken some templates, I recreated the page as a redirect to Template:Togneme. Please leave that redirect in place; it is only the deleted history that needs to be merged. The earliest revision of Template:Togneme is an old redirect that does not need to be kept. Thank you. – PartTimeGnome (talk | contribs) 18:12, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
  •  Done Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:26, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

• Please merge the history of "Pilot (Cosby Show)" into "Pilot (The Cosby Show)". If possible leave a history that shows it was once redirected to the list article and then recreated. If this is against page history move policy that is O.K.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 20:26, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
  •  Done Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:26, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
• Please merge Template:Lord High Togneme's history into Template:Gom. The earliest revision of Template:Gom can be deleted, as it is an old redirect that would have been overwritten if Template:Lord High Togneme had been properly moved to Template:Gom. For a short while, the two templates had parallel histories. The last significant edit to Template:Lord High Togneme was at 04:32, 9 March 2012‎ (UTC). The revisions after that time do not need to be kept, except for the most recent revision, which should be left at Template:Lord High Togneme (this is just a redirect to Template:Gom). (The edits that I feel do not need to be kept are a speedy deletion nomination by the person who performed the copy-and-paste move, and a few move logs as the template spent a short period of time at the title Template:Lord High Gom Togneme.) – PartTimeGnome (talk | contribs) 01:01, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
  •  Done Anthony Appleyard (talk) 09:21, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
• Another one: Please merge Template:Lord High Gom Togneme Userbox's history into Template:Gom Userbox. In this case, the original page was speedily deleted before I realised it was a victim of the same problem. The earliest revision of Template:Gom Userbox can be discarded, as it is an old redirect. – PartTimeGnome (talk | contribs) 02:44, 10 March 2012 (UTC)

• Don't know if this is possible, since there seems to be an extensive parallel history. Merging Citroën C-ZERO into Citroën C-Zero? Messy, but required to fix the page's WP:MOSTM-violating title. (Ultimately they should both redirect to Mitsubishi i MiEV, although that's another story. I'll place a formal merge tag on the page after everything's tidied here, if it can be.) --DeLarge (talk) 15:11, 7 March 2012 (UTC)

  •  Done with Enneagram (geometry). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 11:59, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
• Insignificance used to be a dab page; an article was developed at Insignificance (feeling); then the dab page was copy+pasted to Insignificance (disambiguation) and the article copy+pasted into Insignificance and developed further. I think the right outcome is that Insignificance should be the "feeling" article, Insignificance (disambiguation) the dab page, and Insignificance (feeling) a redirect. -- John of Reading (talk) 17:15, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
  •  Done both histmerges. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 11:40, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

  • Which page is that sandbox? See All pages with titles beginning with User:Kumioko. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 23:30, 15 February 2012 (UTC)
    • Poking around his sandboxes, my best guess is that it was User:Kumioko/Sandbox 10. At the time, it was originally named User:Kumioko/Commandant of the Marine Corps but that was moved to Sandbox 10 and later changed from a redirect to another sandbox.

    • How about we just make something like User:Kumioko/Sandbox 11 and move the unwanted history of Template:WikiProject Smithsonian Institution there? It would avoid the parallel history problem. Disavian (talk) 22:45, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

• Leonard Betts (The X-Files) is a recreation of an article that used be be at Leonard Betts, that was merged away into a list. So the new article should contain the history of the old article. The old article history ended in 2009, the new article started in 2011 so there is no overlapping history. This will also solve the problem of edit history, since there is a requested move that will overwrite the old history with the new article on its talk page. 76.65.128.132 (talk) 06:49, 7 January 2012 (UTC)

• Canadian comics/version 1 splice to Canadian comics -- no significant overlapping edit history. The old article should not have been made inaccessible by moving a user's sandbox into its location. If everytime someone rewrote and article and replaced the edit history, people would find it impossible to find old versions of articles. Every article would look like they were created recently. It also makes reversion to the previous version impossible, so a WP:BRD reversion would always involve administrator intervention. 76.65.128.132 (talk) 12:59, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
  •  Not done What was done looks more like a (partial?) text-merge. The new Canadian comics seems to derive partly from the old Canadian comics and partly from Canadian comics/version 1.
