== Talk page protocol at [[talk:human capital]] and [[talk:individual capital]] ==

Hello, thanks for pointing out there were some attribution issues on those pages after my edits. Reverting was not a good solution because there were new links to references others had already cited, that will help improve both articles. Merge comments, also, belong on [[talk:human capital]] and must be moved there so the entire debate can be assessed in one place before people add new comments. The two minor copyedits to others comments which were clarifications, were removed as you seemed to object to them. What you seemed to think was editing someone else's comment was me editing my own, sorry for the confusion. The talk comments that were the source of summaries now at [[talk:individual capital]] only thank the original contributors now and do not give the impression that they wrote the copyedited text. Of course, feel free to improve those summaries as they are not attributed to anyone in particular, and hopefully both articles will get better.

I believe that all the comments that demonstrated a grasp of the material and knew the actual name of the article ([[individual capital]] proposed in the merge) were against the merge. I will leave it up to you to decide if two years is enough time for the merge proposal or if more comment on that should be solicited before the merge tag is removed.

Job hunting

Please review your edit at Job hunting. Your edit is moving an external link from the 'external link' section into the 'see also' section. You quoted WP:EL, but I'm not sure why this would warrant moving the link to 'see also'. If you're trying to remove the link, then do so, but simply shuffling it about does not seem to help.

1. Please don't blank redirects. 2. If you think a redirect should be deleted, send it to WP:RFD. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 00:22, 23 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Tmol42, thanks for your courteous response in the AfD. I really don't see any need to delete that redirect, since all it does is point a reader to the discussion in the target article. If you haven't seen it before, please take a look at the brief essay Wikipedia:Redirects are cheap. Best, --Arxiloxos (talk) 00:29, 23 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Arxilxos, yes I know the ethos on redirects but where a redirect is in essence a flag flying for a commercial entity in this case a shop of no notability what's so ever there is for me a trumping card which says as its no diffeent from adding a spam url for that shop. The redirect was in fact previously an article advertising the shop and the correct action at the time would have been an AfD for the article not the creation of a redirect.Tmol42 (talk) 01:01, 23 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

PS an added irony the editor who created etc the article was eventually blocked fo creating miscevious redirects!!Tmol42 (talk) 01:05, 23 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. When you recently edited Bolter End, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Lane End (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
