Edit blanking

Hey, sorry about blanking out your comment- I'm a little new to making edits, I've made a few in the past but clearly I'm still learning. :-/ Fjf1085 (talk) 04:37, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

Don't worry about it. :) I assumed good faith as noted in my edit summary. We were all new at editing at one point; like I said on that article's talk page, be bold! Edit things, and don't worry too much about messing up; someone else can always correct any mistakes, and my view is that it's better to fix things that you think are broken than to hesitate and let errors stand. Let me know if you have any other questions...I'm not a particularly "experienced" editor myself, but I've certainly run into similar pitfalls with screwy accidental edits and the like! – 2001:db8:: (rfc | diff) 04:42, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

Completing the Move

How do we get the Kidnapping page moved exactly? Legacypac (talk) 16:58, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

It has to be moved by an admin. Hopefully, some admin will determine we have consensus sooner rather than later...but we may need to wait the full 7 days (until the 15th) for the proposal to run its course before a consensus decision is made. (And even then, it might be the case that the reviewer thinks there's no consensus, and we get stuck with the horrible title even longer. But hopefully not.) – 2001:db8:: (rfc | diff) 17:01, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
Ugg, maybe we can get an Admin to look at it.Have you seen this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Legacypac (talkcontribs)
I imagine there are plenty of admins watching the page; there's really no way to get it brought up for a speedy review. Chances are, folks have decided it's too contentious to close quickly and to let it run the full 7 days. (Also, as others have asked, please try to format your comments properly...when you reply, you should generally use an extra ":" to indent one block further than the comment you're replying to, and remember to use ~~~~ to sign things. Read WP:THREAD if you haven't. Preview before you submit and you can see if it looks right.) – 2001:db8:: (rfc | diff) 17:23, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
