Page move

edit

I see that someone recently changed this page into a redirect to UNSW College of Fine Arts, and then copied all the information there. Please be aware that this is what's called a "copy/paste move", and it's a very bad idea, as it wipes out the history of the original page, which violates GFDL licensing (as it removes the contribution history). If it is desired to move the page to another name, that's fine, but (1) Please ensure that there is consensus for the move, by suggesting it on the talkpage to see if there are any objections; and (2) Please accomplish a move with the "move" tab at the top of the page, and not by copy/pasting. See also WP:RM. Thanks, Elonka 15:09, 22 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

I agree that it should have been a "Move" instead of a "copy and paste", but this article about the UNSW College should be at UNSW College of Fine Arts, and the College of Fine Arts page should be used to cover Colleges of Fine Arts in general all over the world, even though there does not seem presently to be such an article.

I tried but could not make the aforementioned Move, since the target name History shows something was there besides just a Redirect page. An administrator may be called upon to make this "Move". H Padleckas (talk) 03:17, 26 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
As one can see, I moved this article (along with its Talk page) to University of New South Wales College of Fine Arts, thus retaining the History for this specific NSW College. A bot User made UNSW College of Fine Arts (along with its Talk page) Redirect to University of New South Wales College of Fine Arts. I then made College of Fine Arts Redirect to School of Fine Arts, and added University of New South Wales College of Fine Arts to its list of fine art schools, along with a few other minor changes.

It should be renamed again UNSW Australia Art and Design. 129.94.8.143 (talk) 05:20, 30 July 2014 (UTC)Reply
