An IP editor has done a cut and paste move. Could an admin please fix this by moving it back and doing a history search? I wanted to fix it myself by moving the new dab page that the anon has set up 'out of the way', but the history of this article now rests with the dab page. Hence I can't fix it myself. There's no trouble with disambiguating this person once a second "Henry Lang" has an article, but he certainly wasn't known by hs middle name, so we shouldn't leave it the way it is. And beyond that, the cut and paste move needs repairing anyway. Schwede6604:26, 19 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
@Schwede66: Done. I've also posted a message to the IP talk page explaining what the problems with the cut and paste move were. Thanks for pointing this out. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 15:12, 21 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
It's been six months, but the anon's been back and done the same cut and paste move again. Different IP than last time. May I suggest WP:SEMI-PRO so that only autoconfirmed users can edit? I won't try and fix it myself as when I did this last time, I got reverted by the anon a few times (if I remember rightly). Schwede6604:19, 3 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
