I'm sorry, but it appears that you are confusing
- I have found the sentence with your RfD justification and amended my second comment accordingly. I will not be recommending a speedy keep as you do have a valid basis for the nomination. B.Wind (talk) 19:33, 27 February 2010 (UTC)
Windows Tax
You moved the Windows Tax section (I'm OK with that), but I just realized: isn't it just a duplicate of the "Licensing agreements" section? Shouldn;t they be merged? --DanielPharos (talk) 14:34, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true
. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false
in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.
For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of

Meewam, I suggest you have a look at the guidance on requesting moves, with particular attention to the bit which says "Place here your rationale for the proposed page name change, ideally referring to applicable naming convention policies and guidelines, and providing evidence in support where appropriate" It’s no good just plonking a RM tag on a page without saying why you think it’s a good idea. And directing comments to an old discussion isn’t a good idea either.
Now I’ve copied your original comments to the discussion, with a summary of the rest; if you are unhappy with that I suggest you re-write it to reflect what you actually mean. And I’ve changed the page tag again, so newcomers to the discussion know where they are supposed to comment. Moonraker12 (talk) 18:01, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks a lot for being a big help in clearing things up regarding the structure at the talk page, and also for giving some directions on how to request a move. I'll certainly look into to that the next time I consider placing a {{movenotice}} on a page.
- I didn't know about the Requested Moves list, but now that the discussion is listed there, it will hopefully attract more people to engage.
- I placed a {{movenotice}} does not require me to do so, except in case of a complicated move, e.g. the move target is already taken, or if a wider community input is needed to form a consensus. The last phrase does encourage me to post the discussion at the Requested Moves list, but I somehow overlooked that possibility.
- Things went a bit out of hand when movenotice}}. So I'm at bit surprised at how things got so messed up - until you came along a set it straight :)
- Fair enough: it’s (typically!) more complicated than it first appeared. And I’m sorry if I came over to you as being testy; I assumed when I first saw it that it was a hit-and-run tag, which tend to wind me up. I'd also assumed that you'd put it there: My apologies!
