About Draft:The Culture Series (series)

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Draft:The Culture Series (series) a different title by copying 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, 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.

Hello, I'm Andrew nyr. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, FedEx furniture, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Andrew nyr (talk, contribs) 03:21, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at List of best-selling books, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Thanoscar21 (talk) 13:31, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

  The citation that already exists there refers to the book "The Hite REport on Female Sexuality" - there is no reference to "The Hite Report" as well as that being the title of a series of books, not an individual book (and there can't be on this list) *<:@) 13:45, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
  I will also note that Wikipedia own page (linked to by "The Hite Report") also notes no book by that name, only books of similar names starting with "The Hite Report on"... and then lists four books... as I said, these can not be listed as one on that page and deleting my complaint at your edit does not help anyone *<:@) 14:06, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

You said this on my talk page

I didn't mean that; you changed the order of things for no reason. I'm sorry about the edit summary (unsourced), that was an autofill error on my part. Additionally, the article name is the Hite Report, so that's what it should be in another article. Thanks! Thanoscar21 (talk) 14:07, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

Hey, it's fine! Thanks for pointing that out. I'm just curious; what does *<:@) mean? Thanoscar21 (talk) 14:28, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Languages of Scotland, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. This may have been done in good faith but please do not do this as it misrepresents the comments of others.
