I didn't see that after the redirect you had recreated the page under a new title. I'd be content with that new title myself but I have run out of time right now until later today. <span style="color:#6495ED">Ben</span> <span style="color:#D891EF">Mac</span><span style="color:#228B22">Dui</span> ↗ 08:59, 1 August 2025 (UTC)

::Maybe not yet - hopefully the article survives deletion nomination! As you point out it's all a bit of a mess, and I'm sorry that I ended up contributing to that. Grinner (talk) 16:45, 1 August 2025 (UTC)

Standard cut-and-paste move warning

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hi, and thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by cutting its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. 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.  * Pppery * <sub style="color:#800000">it has begun...</sub> 15:21, 4 August 2025 (UTC)

Upcoming expiry of your ipblock-exempt right

Orphaned non-free image File:Office-of-the-scottish-charity-regulator.PNG

spelling

In May in the articles Edinburgh North Eastern and Leith ↗, Edinburgh South Western (Scottish Parliament constituency) ↗, Edinburgh Northern (Scottish Parliament constituency) ↗, Edinburgh North Western ↗, and Midlothian North (Scottish Parliament constituency) ↗ you inserted the word "initally". The correct spelling is "initially". Jellysandwich0 (talk) 01:58, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
