Revision as of 20:04, 25 October 2015
Greetings!
I saw Catherine Flon, and put it on my watchlist. I hope you enjoy contributing here. If you encounter an unhelpful person who tells you that you broke a rule, please remember there are also helpful people.
Often those people who cite arcane rules got them wrong.
Cheers! Geo Swan (talk) 01:52, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
- Hi there Thanks for the kind welcome message. I am assuming it was sent during the Art & Feminism training session I attended? The Catherine Flon edits I made were just for training puposes and I hope I have books at home that can help me add helpful info to it in the future. Thanks again for reaching out and looking forward to chatting again soon. Aliceba (talk) 04:39, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Dr. Bendson Louima, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Dr. Bedson Louima. 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. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.
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. CorenSearchBot (talk) 15:51, 15 March 2015 (UTC)
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Dr. Bedson Louima a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Dr. Bendson Louima. 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.

![]() ![]() You are invited to join the Wikimedia NYC community for our evening "WikiWednesday" salon and knowledge-sharing workshop by 14th Street / Union Square in Manhattan. This month, we will also host a Newcomer's Wiki Workshop for those getting started on the encyclopedia project! We will also include a look at our annual plan and budget ideas, to see if the chapter is able to fiscally sponsor more ongoing projects tied to our core mission of expanding and diversifying free knowledge. We welcome the participation of our friends from the Free Culture movement and from educational and cultural institutions interested in developing free knowledge projects. We will also follow up on plans for recent and upcoming editathons, and other outreach activities. After the main meeting, pizza/chicken/vegetables and refreshments and video games in the gallery!
We especially encourage folks to add your 5-minute lightning talks to our roster, and otherwise join in the "open space" experience! Newcomers are very welcome! Bring your friends and colleagues! --Pharos (talk) 17:44, 22 October 2015 (UTC) Bonus events, RSVP now for our latest upcoming editathons:
