[edit] March 2007

Hi, the recent edit you made to Cold Turkey has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks – Qxz 04:47, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cut and paste move

Hello, Mdumas43073. It appears that you copied and pasted John Earl Madden to John Madden (American football). Please do not move articles by copying and pasting them because it splits the article's history, which is needed for attribution and is helpful in many other ways. If there is an article that you cannot move yourself using the move link at the top of the page, follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Requested moves. Also, if there are any other articles that you copied and pasted, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you, Zzyzx11 (Talk) 04:13, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Up on the House Top

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Up on the House Top, and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Up On the House Top. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 20:02, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

I have fixed your copy-n-paste move of Up on the House Top. I can see above that you have previously been told about using the move button instead of copy-n-pasting articles. Please do this correctly in the future. If you need help, see WP:MOVE or feel free to ask me or any other editor. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks. -- JLaTondre 22:21, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Redirect of 1973 MLB season

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on 1973 MLB season, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because 1973 MLB season is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting 1973 MLB season, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

[edit] May 2008

Please do not create malicious redirects, as you did with Great Wall of China. They are disruptive and are considered vandalism, and have been reverted. Users who continue to create such redirects may be blocked. Doug Weller (talk) 19:11, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
