Is it possible to merge just the edits between [1] and [2] into Reynaldo López? The first two edits and the final five are not necessary to merge.--Yankees10 04:00, 19 July 2016 (UTC)
- Arrrghhh. Never easy - I've had a go Ronhjones (Talk) 22:00, 19 July 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks very much appreciated. Hope it wasn't too much of a hassle.--Yankees10 01:31, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

Hello, in January 2011 you permanently semi-protected this page, as there was a lot of vandalism due to an upcoming transfer.
However, I think now could be a good time to remove all protection. That particular transfer has passed, and Sammon is now a rather low-profile player. In my time editing football pages I have noticed that IPs are generally helpful for trivial and ephemeral details like updating statistics. If you compare the page history for Sammon and for his strike partner Robbie Muirhead, you can see the difference.
In short, as you know, pages are protected to save the time of established users, and to protect living people from harm to their reputation. There is no ongoing event that would cause vandalism here. I do not see that there would be much to lose to unprotect this page, and I see there is at least something to earn.

Just so you understand the situation. This is a new editor who has created dozens of articles that have had to be deleted or redirected. He has made improper articles and articles that already exist. His article List of WTA Tour players by career match wins is one such article that is about to be deleted and I assume he really wanted to put this draft article in his sandbox for some reason. Instead he made a draft article which is why I asked for a speedy deletion. I hope that helps clarify my reasoning. Fyunck(click) (talk) 00:19, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
- Draft articles are not indexed by Google - if you check the page source HTML of any Draft article then we have the line
- <meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow"/> - which stops any crawler indexer from indexing the page
- This was one of the main reasons for having a Draft space. If no-one can find it then it not a problem. All sorts of random stuff are in Draft. If it gets left for 6 months untouched then it gets deleted, the only other main other reason for deletion of a draft page is copyright violations Ronhjones (Talk) 00:39, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
- Can anyone edit them? Fyunck(click) (talk) 00:43, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
- Technically you can edit any page you like, but it's not really done to edit someone's else's draft without their agreement - the whole point of the draft space was to allow editors as much time as they wanted to slowly compose a page gathering data as they found it from various sources - so long as they stuck to improving the page and not letting it become a stale draft, they are free to carry on. They could well revert back any unwanted edits - unless you deem it to be a copyright issue or sometimes a severe personal attack. It hasn't get a draft banner, I'll add one. :-) Ronhjones (Talk) 14:23, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
