Your article submission Caboolture Library[edit]
Hello Alexdaw. It has been over six months since you last edited your article submission, entitled Caboolture Library.
The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note, however, that Articles for Creation is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Caboolture Library}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, click "Save", and an administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. HasteurBot (talk) 18:01, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
Cut and Paste Move[edit]
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Dayboro Times and Moreton Mail a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. 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, 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:Cut-and-paste-move repair holding pen. Thank you.

- It's great to see your interest in the old newspapers (I've written a number of articles on the same topic)If you need any help, please write here or on my talk page or email me at kerry.raymond@wikimedia.org.au Kerry (talk) 09:56, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
- Like most things, writing for Wikipedia gets easier with practice. Don't let yourself be discouraged by initial problems. Also Wikimedia Australia (of which I am a member) provide Wikipedia training to individuals or small groups at no cost, mostly coordinated through libraries (but other arrangements are possible). I am based in Brisbane and do a lot of training in the Brisbane and surrounding areas so let me know if you have any interest in training as I am guessing you are in that geographic area given your interest in Dayboro etc. Kerry (talk) 23:01, 31 January 2015 (UTC)
- I have sent you email to discuss further. Kerry (talk) 00:12, 1 February 2015 (UTC)
