==Page move==

Hi! Thanks for contributing to Misplaced Pages. I'm sorry that ] put a message re "test edits" on this talk page when apparently you were just trying to do a page move.

I believe the page move you were trying to accomplish was from ] to ] and that this move has been completed and fixed. However, please note that when ], you're supposed to use the "move" button. If the "move" button doesn't work for a particular page, that means it's a more complicated situation and an administrator is needed to carry out the move correctly. When you did it by editing a page to make it a redirect, rather than using the "move" button, it was a ], and an adminstrator (]) had to . When this is done, the page history always still ends up a little more confused afterwards than if the correct procedure had been used at first. To move a page that you can't move with the "move" button, you can put in a request at ]. That's better than doing a cut-and-paste move yourself.

I hope you enjoy editing Misplaced Pages. Feel free to ask me questions at ] at any time. --] (]) 02:41, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:AvatarBook3FireVolume2.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:AvatarBook3FireVolume2.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 06:40, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

January 2008

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages, at least one of your recent edits did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. That article redirected for a reason. Jonathan § 00:36, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Page move

Hi! Thanks for contributing to Misplaced Pages. I'm sorry that Jonathan put a message re "test edits" on this talk page when apparently you were just trying to do a page move.

I believe the page move you were trying to accomplish was from Avatar: The Last Airbender - Book 1: Water to Avatar: The Last Airbender (Season 1) and that this move has been completed and fixed. However, please note that when moving pages, you're supposed to use the "move" button. If the "move" button doesn't work for a particular page, that means it's a more complicated situation and an administrator is needed to carry out the move correctly. When you did it by editing a page to make it a redirect, rather than using the "move" button, it was a cut-and-paste move, and an adminstrator (The Placebo Effect) had to fix it up afterwards. When this is done, the page history always still ends up a little more confused afterwards than if the correct procedure had been used at first. To move a page that you can't move with the "move" button, you can put in a request at Misplaced Pages:Requested page moves. That's better than doing a cut-and-paste move yourself.

I hope you enjoy editing Misplaced Pages. Feel free to ask me questions at my talk page at any time. --Coppertwig (talk) 02:41, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
