New York State Forests merger
Hi, not sure what the rush was in merging List of New York state forests to New York State Forests, per this discussion the intention was to allow the merger discussion to continue for two weeks to allow page visitors to weigh in, and it had hardly run two days. Not a big deal, this is undoubtedly what the outcome would have been regardless, but there was no rush. More problematically, your merger was, frankly, sloppily done:
- You neglected to provide proper attribution on the destination page (as required by WP's copyright terms, per WP:MERGETEXT), most easily done by providing a link in the edit summary when merging material. I have somewhat corrected this by adding a template to the talk page, but the history of the destination article makes it appear as though the improvements were your own material due to the lack of attribution.
- You forgot to merge a number of elements, such as the reflist, one of the references invoked but not defined in the text you copied, the lead photo, and the 'Protected areas of NY' navbox. This makes me wonder if you even looked over the page after you were finished merging, as particularly the lack of a reflist and the missing reference were plainly noticeable and easily corrected.
Anyway, thanks for completing the merger but maybe slow down next time, or leave it to folks who have demonstrated more of an interest in maintaining the articles to complete. Take care - Antepenultimate (talk) 11:03, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
