Sorry, didn't think that it mattered in this case. Will do. ASUKITE 18:20, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

You moved Crowbone to draft while I was still editing it.

As a result, additions I made (including refs) are still on the mainspace article, while the initial history got moved to draftspace. Please re-merge... including the book cover pic. Thanks! – _•Raven  ^.talk 23:53, 16 February 2023 (UTC)

I've placed a tag requesting a merge. Sorry for the trouble! ASUKITE 00:15, 17 February 2023 (UTC)

Okay, the tag in turn requests that I put this template here:
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Draft:Crowbone a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Crowbone. 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. – _•Raven  ^.talk 00:19, 17 February 2023 (UTC)

Haha, that's not necessary. That's just in the usual case where an editor has cut and pasted the contents of an article. Yours was moved to draft as it lacked sources, I was not aware you were in the middle of editing it. This case is a little different (those instructions render for anybody who reads the page). An admin will come by and complete the merge and remove the tag. ASUKITE 00:21, 17 February 2023 (UTC)

Hi.

Are the current categories at Service Clarence, OK? Thanks for your help.HistoricReminder (talk) 18:46, 23 February 2023 (UTC)

Generally I only use that tag when there's only one category, so anything more than that is fine. You can always remove such tags if you fix the issue, I've removed the tag, thanks for checking though! ASUKITE 19:00, 23 February 2023 (UTC)

You have been a great help.HistoricReminder (talk) 19:04, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
