User talk:Xtine-nixon
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Armed Offenders Squad (New Zealand), and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Armed Offenders Squad. 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) 23:13, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Armed Offenders Sqaud DAB
[edit]Hello Xtine-nixon, please have a read of Help:Moving a page with regard to the AOS dab for NZ/VIC. Cut and paste moves are bad, as it says "You should never just move a page by cutting all the text out of one page, and pasting it into a new one; old revisions, notes, and attributions are much harder to keep track of if you do that." It looks like you have a new account, I understand you may not have been aware of this aspect. I'll take a look at repairing it, by deleting AOS NZ, undoing the dab page, moving AOS to AOS NZ, then creating the dab should fix it.XLerate (talk) 02:08, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
- On closer inspection a hatnote would be better, which has already been done, there is a link to the VIC AOS at the top of the Armed Offenders Squad article. XLerate (talk) 02:18, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
Your username
[edit]Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope not to seem unfriendly or make you feel unwelcome, but I noticed your username, and I am concerned that it might not meet Wikipedia's username policy for the following reason: It could be seen as impersonating the notable person, Christine Nixon. After you look over that policy, could we discuss that concern here?
I'd appreciate learning your own views, for instance your reasons for wanting this particular name, and what alternative username you might accept that avoids raising this concern.
You have several options freely available to you:
- If you can relieve my concern through discussing it here, I can stop worrying about it.
- If the two of us can't agree here, we can ask for help through Wikipedia's dispute resolution process, such as requesting comments from other Wikipedians. Wikipedia administrators usually abide by agreements reached through this process.
- You can keep your contributions history under a new username. Visit Wikipedia:Changing username and follow the guidelines there.
Thank you. -- Mattinbgn\talk 05:30, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
