Template:Uw-c&pmove

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently copied the contents of a page and pasted it into another with a different name. This is what we call a "cut and paste move", and it is very undesirable because it splits the article's history, which is needed for attribution and is helpful in many other ways. The mechanism we use for renaming an article is to move it to a new name which both preserves the page's history and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. In most cases, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. If there is an article that you cannot move yourself by this process, follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Requested moves to request the move by another. Also, if there are any other articles that you copied and pasted, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you.



This template optionally allows you to specify where the article was cut from and where it was pasted to as follows:

{{subst:uw-c&pmove|Article cut from|to=Article pasted to|Additional text}}.

Template documentation

  • This template has been carefully designed based on guidelines by the user warnings project.
  • For usage instructions regarding this template, see documentation.
  • Please discuss the general visual appearance of these templates (for example, the image in the top-left corner) on the user warning talk page.
  • Please refer to the index of message templates before using any template on user talk pages to warn a user. Applying the best template available for your purpose may help reduce confusion from the message you are sending.
  • Please remember to substitute the template using {{subst:uw-c&pmove}} rather than {{uw-c&pmove}}.
  • This template uses a parser function. To give greater detail to your message, you may add the article name and some additional text to the end of the template.
  • Optionally, add |subst=subst: to the end of the template to reduce the code in the final output:
{{subst:uw-c&pmove|Article|Additional text|subst=subst:}}
  • This should however only be done if you use the Article parameter of the template. There is a currently investigated bug on the MediaWiki software that breaks the template if you omit this parameter and use |subst=subst:.
