Welcome!
Hello, Kendler, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, like Dyscopia, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for page creation, and may soon be deleted.

Speedy deletion nomination of Dyscopia
editA tag has been placed on Dyscopia requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article consists of a dictionary definition or other article that has been transwikied to another project and the author information recorded.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 07:54, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
Please come back and edit Dyscopia, it is not going to be speedy deleted. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:54, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

Yep, I was following the instructions on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Dyscopia regarding "MERGE", but it didn't work.
I have merged the content of both pages onto the Dyscopia page and was trying to do the "#REDIRECT name of article" from Acopia.
Perhaps I will leave this for the author of the Acopia page (or the person who suggested the merge).
OK second try worked for a minute but looks like it's reverted again - I'll leave it for someone else.
I think that Dyscopia is a more commonly used word and has a more general application hence merging of content into Dyscopia from Acopia.
