November 2015

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. 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:Requests for history merge. Thank you. clpo13_(talk) 19:53, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

English a pronunciation

A tag has been placed on English a pronunciation, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect from an implausible typo, or other unlikely search term.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you believe that there is a reason to keep the redirect, you can request that administrators wait a while before deleting it. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Copying within wikipedia

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Rhotacism (language change) into Rhotacism (speech impediment). While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. Uanfala (talk) 18:43, 21 July 2016 (UTC)

I see you are still not adding the required attribution, as required under the terms of the CC-by-SA license. Please have a look at this edit summary as an example of how it is done. Please leave a message on my talk page if you still don't understand what to do or why we have to do it. Thanks, — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 00:03, 31 January 2017 (UTC)

From-rum merger listed at Redirects for discussion

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect From-rum merger. Since you had some involvement with the From-rum merger redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. LakeKayak (talk) 20:23, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

Pronunciation of English a

I reverted some of your changes with your splits on the page on the article listed above. The new articles are still intact. I myself made a similar split on the page Phonological history of English low back vowels, making a separate article Cot-caught merger. However, there was a period of time when the information on the two articles overlapped, where both pages had the same information.

I think that might be the stage you are at right now. I have no objection to the topics Trap-bath split and Æ-tensing being on separate pages. However, until the pages are established, it makes the most sense for the content still to remain on the parent page. I will be willing to help you out on the article if you need it. Thank you.LakeKayak (talk) 01:44, 30 January 2017 (UTC)

Æ-tensing

By the way, I have an idea for the page Æ-tensing. However, as the page is still in the beginning stages, I would rather have your approval before I make such a change. I think that possibly we could have a separate section for the New York City system, another for the Philadelphia system, and another for the nasal system. (These would not be the only sections of the article.) For the NYC system, in particular, Labov report a different variation used in some areas New Jersey, which we could put into a subsection under the NYC system. Anyway, do you approve? Thank you.LakeKayak (talk) 23:36, 30 January 2017 (UTC)

Devoicing in AAVE

I am having trouble finding the section of Green (2002) that mentions a longer vowel. Does she say this or is this a bit of editorializing on your part? — Ƶ§œš¹ _{[lɛts b̥iː pʰəˈlaɪˀt]} 00:36, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

It mentions such here http://www.rehabmed.ualberta.ca/spa/phonology/features.htm that devoiced "cub" pronounced with a "p" at the end retains the vowel length that occurs after voiced consonants. It says this under the section "final obstruent devoicing" Fish567 (talk) 03:25, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

I see. In this case, you would want to cite either the website or (even better) seek out the sources used and cite one of them. The way you have edited the article, you make it seem as though Green (2002) is saying this when she isn't, which is a big no-no. — Ƶ§œš¹ _{[lɛts b̥iː pʰəˈlaɪˀt]} 14:49, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Hello, Fish567

Thank you for creating Blackboard Scraping.

User:Rosguill, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

FYI there's no need to create redirects for alternative capitalizations pointing to the same target. Wikipedia internally corrects capitalization mismatches when searching.
