UDWiki:Administration/Move Requests

Template:A/MRsub

Shortcut:
A/MR

This page is for the requesting of page moves by normal users. The average user's ability to move pages has been rescinded due to frequent abuse by vandals; as such, users will need to submit requests (similar in nature to those on Speedy Deletions and Protections) for pages to be moved by a sysop.

Guidelines for requesting a Page Move

Copy the template below (Or just type it), replace the text in red with the relevant details, and paste the template under the Move Request Queue heading. A day after a sysop has taken action on the request, move requests should be moved to the Archive.

Characters_of_Note

• Move to User:Amazing/Characters_of_Note

Personal page in the main namespace. Any attempts at discussion about the rules of the page or consensus building get shut down by Amazing ranting about page ownership, bias, and his not understanding the history of a separate user sub-page. He's imitating a user's page but trying to do so with more authority by putting it in NS:0 while ignoring previous consensus on this specific article not being in NS:0. Clearly he wants something he has editorial control over, he has that as a subpage of his personal page. --Karek^{maps 2.0?!} 05:28, 17 September 2012 (BST)

I flatly refuse this action, "discussion of the rules" amounted to nothing more than jabs with no solutions, I did not rant about ownership, and I completely understand user sub-pages as I have a few of them. I am not imitating a user's page, and instead created an "open" alternative to one. I do not want editorial control, as laid out specifically when I created the page. Karek is simply quitting the discussion and moving to this page for a petty "screw you" move, basing his arguement on false or at least 'stretched' information. If this page is moved, I will delete it and create a different public resource that is similar but different enough that it will not circumvent this move. In other words, "Famous Characters" with entirely differnet guidelines and no existing "copied" list, etc. This is my only option since folks like Karek only complain and offer no actual suggestions/discussion on changes that could be made to the system. I can't psychically impliment his personal vision of the democratic voting system open to all users I set out to offer. Frankly, I could start making a ton of changes to the current list to make it "not a copy", but I made the rules pretty specific and - I don't want control over the process, so I theoretically can't arbitrarily insert or remove characters. It's clearly a good-faith attempt at creating a wiki resource, and I just want it to be used in a fair way. -- ™ & © Amazing, INC. All rights reserved.

You literally copied and pasted word for word from Ross' page because you had a feeling of bias that no one else, not even people rejected, have brought up. --Karek^{maps 2.0?!} 06:07, 17 September 2012 (BST)

Actually, I created a page that listed the same users in order and removed Ross' formatting, so it's actually not "literally copied and pasted", and if you count code, it's not "word for word". If you count the alphabetization, it's even less "literally copied". Plus I can't very well be biased and remove who I don't want and add who I do want. That's up for the voting to decide if people so choose. I don't understand why you're bringing the arguement here under the guise of a fake move request. "This is a userpage"? Really? Nobody believes that, not even you. No, if you want to talk in "literal" terms, you "literally" nominated a page for moving because you got mad, you've "literally" brought an arguement to a Moderation page for no real reason, and you "literally" threatened me with Vandal Banning for creating a page you don't like and defending it on the corresponding talk page. Maybe chill out for a bit? I seriously didn't mean to get you this worked up, I was just debating the issue with you. -- ™ & © Amazing, INC. All rights reserved.

In the edit reason, you put: "You literally copied the content word for word and are now saying you'll recopy it into the main namespace because yours being there is what's important to you not neutrality" - I didn't say that. Either I'm not being clear or you're not seeing straight due to anger. I said I'd create an entirely different page that isn't done in bad faith, that wouldn't undercut the move. Something new with a different ruleset I'll guess at due to the zero input I've gotten from you and others on how it could be better. -- ™ & © Amazing, INC. All rights reserved.

Also, why did you put this in "Recent Actions"? O_o -- ™ & © Amazing, INC. All rights reserved. Replying constitutes acceptance of our Terms of Service. 06:01, 17 September 2012 (BST)

Habit, I'm not required to make the request I'm doing it out of common courtesy and so a third party can rule on it. You know, taking other's input for the sake of neutrality. --Karek^{maps 2.0?!} 06:08, 17 September 2012 (BST)

Indeed, maybe if you'd taken my input as valid instead of just rolling from your first impression... Well, c'est la vie. If I even spelled that correctly. -- ™ & © Amazing, INC. All rights reserved. Replying constitutes acceptance of our Terms of Service. 06:14, 17 September 2012 (BST)

While I agree with Karek's stance, I'd first like to hear Ross' 2 cents. It's taken straight from his page, so it's essentially up to him if he wants to have that stuff in the mainspace (yet). -- Spiderzed█ 06:20, 17 September 2012 (BST)

Just a quick question since I've been out of the loop for a few years and rarely visit the site. Is it an established rule that nobody can copy content? Especially with the intent of editing it later based on the input of others? This is a legit question. -- ™ & © Amazing, INC. All rights reserved.

It's been crit 1 for Speedy deletion since before your ban. Not liking an articles current home isn't generally considered a valid purpose. --Karek^{maps 2.0?!} 06:41, 17 September 2012 (BST)

None of the factors in Crit 1 apply. It's not a strict duplication because I added to and edited it, and it's not for "no purpose" as I clearly stated the purpose. Just because you disagree with the purpose doesn't mean there isn't one. I can't stress enough this problem of working backward from what you want. Funny you'd point out "not liking an article's home" when that's the entire stated basis for you wanting to move a non-userpage with original content. -- ™ & © Amazing, INC. All rights reserved.

You should leave the wikilawyer stuff to Akule, at least he's good at it. --Karek^{maps 2.0?!} 09:03, 17 September 2012 (BST)

If Ross is willing to move his version out of his user space, I think the pages should be merged into one main namespace page -- boxy 09:22, 17 September 2012 (BST)

Whoa, whoa. It's been what, half a day? Amazing's trying. It has potential (though personally I think it's lucky not to be A/SD'd even). There is no harm in giving this one a try for a few days. A ZOMBIE ANT 10:56, 17 September 2012 (BST)

DEM

• Move to DEM (Disambiguation)
• Reason: this really should be a redirect to Department of Emergency Management. I checked the incoming links and while I didn't check every single link, it doen't look as if any lead to Deus Ex Machina. I suggest simply linking to the disambig page from Department of Emergency Management. See Talk:Deus Ex Machina#DEM disambiguation for more info. ~ _{16:47, 16 July 2012 (UTC)}

The reason I brought this here was to get some consensus but if none is forthcoming, I'll probably just do it manually in another couple of days. ~ _{02:58, 18 July 2012 (UTC)}

Karek did this.--Shortround }.{ My Contributions 10:52, 19 July 2012 (BST)
