Page titles

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Punicalagins a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Punicalagin. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. 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. 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. (I noticed that you referred to these edits in your summary as a "merge", but since Punicalagin was a redirect before your edits, it really was a move, not a merge.) Thank you.

March 2012

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not replace pages with blank content, as you did with this edit to Procyanidin B1, as this is confusing to readers. The page's content has been restored for now. If there is a problem with the page, it should be edited or reverted to a previous version if possible; if you think the page should be removed entirely, see further information. Thank you.
