W type carriage into Victorian Railways Short W type carriage and Victorian Railways Long W type carriage (requested by @Anothersignalman:) :: I can history-merge W type carriage into Victorian Railways Short W type carriage or into Victorian Railways Long W type carriage, but not into both, because in the English Wikipedia an edit history cannot be duplicated. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:35, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
- Majority of the older content belongs on the Long page; the history of the Short cars is a lot simpler and easier to trace via other references. Anothersignalman (talk) 08:06, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Anothersignalman: As this diff shows, W type carriage and Victorian Railways Long W type carriage are very different at the apparent cut-and-paste point. It may be better to put history note sections in the talk pages of these 3 pages. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 14:25, 28 January 2017 (UTC)

The Joker (ride) was cut and pasted from The Joker (Six Flags Great Adventure) in September 2016. Further, multiple rides are named "The Joker", so after histmerging, this needs to be renamed. As this set of coasters was built by S&S The Joker (S&S Worldwide) should be the destination name, due to multiple Six Flags locations having coasters named "The Joker" built by other companies, and this article covers multiple Six Flags coasters built by S&S. -- 65.94.168.229 (talk) 06:19, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

There is confusion in the histories between David Moon (a disambiguation page) and David A. Moon. It went back and forth between a dab page and a bio page for David A.

Johnny Strange American base jumper article was cunningly changed into Johnny Strange - UK street performer around 22 March 2015. Bit late now to revert it... - though would be fun to try... :-) History before that date should go to Johnny Strange (adventurer) Ronhjones ^(Talk) 03:00, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
- @Ronhjones: As regards a history-merge, Johnny Strange (adventurer) looks like a new start from a stub and not copied in from anywhere else. In Johnny Strange, the first edit where the performer intrudes seems to be at 20:51, 22 March 2015‎ by Jh737kh; the first edit where the adventurer was eliminated is at 22:40, 22 March 2015‎ by Jh737kh. Jh737kh and Ashcastle may have thought that these two Johnny Stranges were the same man. The change of subject happened gradually over several edits, so there is no specific cut-and-paste point. After Johnny Strange (adventurer) was started, people may have over time copied matter in from old edits of Johnny Strange. Best put history notes in their talk pages. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 15:56, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
  - @Anthony Appleyard: OK, I will do something. I was alerted to the page by someone on OTRS complaining that Johnny Strange had been "stolen". Ronhjones ^(Talk) 22:35, 28 March 2017 (UTC)

@Anthony Appleyard: I ask that this request be deleted. User is presuming that I took something from what an IP address created at their unsourced stub, when I didn't, and the history proves there are significant differences. I used the artist's previous single as a basis for the infobox and lead sentence, and compiled everything else myself. Histmerges should only happen when it is clear a cut-and-paste has taken place. As it hasn't here, it shouldn't be done, and would be the user taking credit for something they did not create. Ss 112 17:18, 16 March 2017 (UTC)

I've been attempting to repair disruption caused by socks of User:The abominable Wiki troll.

Unfortunately, the reverts complicate things here, but the edits up to and including this one should be moved to Template:Proposed deletion/dated, as they are the box, not a wrapper template for it. Pppery 20:07, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Pppery: the edits up to and including this one (in Template:Proposed deletion, from oldest to Ruud Koot's edit at 13:54, 13 April 2006) :: these edits are WP:Parallel histories with the oldest edits of Template:Proposed deletion/dated. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:56, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
  - @Anthony Appleyard: It seems that Sherool actually copied from a couple revisions earlier when (s)he created Template:Proposed deletion/dated, which should thus be the latest revision moved. (And btw, I didn't get the above ping). Ppp ery 21:40, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Pppery:: To avoid WP:Parallel histories, the last edit of Template:Proposed deletion which could be moved to Template:Proposed deletion/dated, would be 11:42, 13 April 2006‎ by Ruud Koot, as Template:Proposed deletion/dated's oldest edit is at 12:02, 13 April 2006‎ by Sherool. But still, that move would cut one history to rejoin another history. That problem arises whenever a page is copy-and-pasted and after that two parallel versions continue. The best solution would be to put a history note in a talk page. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 23:12, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Pppery:: Re-pinging about this query. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:38, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
  - Is this not the same situation as Template:Web reference, which was histmerged? Ppp ery 14:10, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Pppery:: It is not the same. When a page's history forks and continues as two pages, there is no point in cutting one history to rejoin the other history. Best put a history note in the relevant talk pages. History forks are a headache and a nuisance, but they happen. (On the German Wikipedia, the history before the fork can be "cloned" (i.e. duplicated), to make a copy to history-merge into the daughter page, but that cannot be done in the English Wikipedia.) Sorry. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 14:35, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Pppery:: The same happens with the reverse, i.e. two pages (say A and B) being text-merged into one. If page B is text-merged into page A, often a user asks me to history-merge B into A, and always I must reject the request due to WP:Parallel histories.

Reason for my query: 01:58, 11 January 2017‎ was a copy-and-paste point, causing a history fork, and obeying this request would cut one edit history to rejoin another edit history. The page now at List of Franciscan organizations has a complicated history, and its change to a list seems to have been gradual. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:48, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
"List of Franciscan organizations" in its current form is itself an unfortunate copy and paste split from "Franciscan Order in modern times (18:17, 13 October 2015)". Merging the remnant history of "List of Franciscan organizations" with the older "Franciscan Order in Modern Times" should correct most of the troubles. Admittedly, this is getting hairy.... --Zfish118^⋉talk 18:11, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
- @Zfish118:
  - 11:36, 2 July 2016‎: Franciscan Order in modern times was text-merged into Franciscans and then replaced by redirect.
  - 04:12, 8 January 2017‎: Franciscans was moved to List of Franciscan organizations.
  You seem to want me to history-merge List of Franciscan organizations and Franciscan Order in modern times, but they are WP:Parallel histories. I am unwilling to cut a real page-history in order to assemble a synthetic page-history. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 12:33, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
  - - Very well. The window of opportunity to perfectly clean up this situation seems to have passed. I just wanted a definitive decision, so these articles could develop unencumbered in the future. --Zfish118^⋉talk 18:43, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

Move most of history logs of Talk:Noël Coward/Archive 1 (before the page move) into Talk:Noël Coward. --George Ho (talk) 23:37, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
- Not done @George Ho: Talk:Noël Coward/Archive 1 (up to page move at 22:03, 19 November 2013) to Talk:Noël Coward (asked for by {{histmerge}}) :: the history of Talk:Noël Coward/Archive 1 is continuous through the page move, and Talk:Noël Coward started new as a stub at 22:03, 19 November 2013.

Looking for old history of Complexity Gaming and Los Angeles Complexity to be merged into compLexity Gaming. The pages exited at separate times so there's shouldn't be any conflicts. The current stand alone page was created as a cut and paste split, using information that had previously been copied to List of Championship Gaming Series teams following an AfD of Los Angeles Complexity.--Prisencolin (talk) 04:10, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Prisencolin: Los Angeles Complexity is WP:Parallel histories with a long deleted history in Complexity Gaming; the undeleted edits in Complexity Gaming are merely 5 redirects. What cut-and-pasting has happened between Complexity Gaming and Los Angeles Complexity and compLexity Gaming, rather than between any of them and other pages? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:25, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/CompLexity Gaming is currently active; User:MordeKyle started it at 23:18, 7 December 2016 (UTC).
  - CompLexity Gaming started at 20:38, 4 May 2015‎ by Prisencolin (7,897 bytes), runs to 23:18, 7 December 2016‎ by MordeKyle (14,674 bytes); earlier edits are redirects & such junk.
  - Complexity Gaming (deleted edits) started at 23:03, 25 January 2006 by Digx as substub (110 bytes), runs to 06:27, 6 June 2007 by Eliz81
  - Los Angeles Complexity started at 09:12, 17 June 2007‎ by Digx as apparent stub, runs to 13:19, 20 December 2008‎ by IRP, then 2 redirect edits.
  - There is no page Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Los Angeles Complexity. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 09:06, 9 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Prisencolin: At 01:10, 11 December 2016 (UTC) discussion in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/CompLexity Gaming was closed as "keep". But the above queries still stand. Complexity Gaming and Los Angeles Complexity are very different at any possible history-merge point between them, and their histories must be treated as independent. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:34, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
- Closed, as no answer in over 3 weeks. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 00:28, 1 January 2017 (UTC)
  - I forgot about this somehow. Anyways if you feel the articles are different enough, then I guess I'm okay woth the declined merger.-- 02:50, 1 January 2017‎ Prisencolin (talk)
