DDO wiki:History merge
Cut-and-paste moves occur because of unfamiliarity with the move function, unawareness that attribution is necessary, or when the move function fails (e.g., because the target has history).
When a cut-and-paste move is done, the page history of an article or talk page can be split among two or more different pages. This is highly undesirable, because we need to keep the history with the content for copyright reasons.
In some circumstances, administrators can fix this by merging page histories. The procedure to do so is as follows:
- First, delete the page being merged into.
- Secondly, move the other page into the newly clear destination, leaving a redirect behind.
- Finally, restore the most recent edit of the original page.
