[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia

Hi, Parker105. First, I'd like to welcome you to Wikipedia, I hope that you like the place and decide to stay. The one thing I'd like to talk to you about is your edits to the Homicidal somnambulism page. Moving the page is fine, but you should use the move button on the top of your browser, instead of copying the text into a new article. The problem with using the cut and paste method is that it separates the article from the edit history. This is a problem, because the terms of the GFDL (through which Wikipedia is licensed) require that all contributors be given credit for their work, which is accomplished through the attachment of the edit history. In cases where there is already a redirect for where you want to move a page, it may require an administrator to delete the redirect before moving the page. To do so, just make a request at Wikipedia:Requested moves. I hope that was a clear explanation, but if you have questions, feel free to ask me, either right here or on my talk page.
