moving pages hi myrdred the best way to move articles is to use the move link on the left hand side of the page cutting and pasting the text of articles from one to another only moves the text it does not move the edit history fragmenting the edit history is both a nuisance and a legal issue because when we don't provide a list of all contributors to an article we are violating the gnu free documentation license for this reason you should always use the built in move feature if the location you wish to move to already exists you will have to convince an administrator to do the move because only administrators can undo a page move please always make sure that other editors agree to your move before carrying it out thanks for your contributions talk
