Copy-paste moves
editHi. Please rename articles by moving them, or having them moved, rather than copying and pasting the content from one name to another. Doing that strands the page history and makes it difficult to track what's going on. — kwami (talk) 00:09, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
- Hi, thanks for point this out to me; I think I've just figured out how to do that. I've written the articles in question almost from scratch so I don't think this resulted in much information loss, but I can see why this could be important. Degoiabeira (talk) 00:17, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
I was a bit confused by the moves, so I wasn't sure what had happened. Suya has a bit of a history to it. Looks like one of mine, hardly even a stub, so yeah no big deal as far as lost info, but almost a decade as an article (if that's not an insult to the word 'article'), and sometimes we're interested in tracking that history. If you need to split the article, usually best for the old article and page history to go under one of the names (whichever one it concentrated on), and if you can't move because of some technical issue, see WP:RM. — kwami (talk) 03:59, 3 August 2020 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest on Wikipedia
edit
Hello, Degoiabeira. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. —PaleoNeonate – 04:59, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
