[edit] Page moves
Turning Carey McWilliams into a disambiguation page made sense given that another person by that name had turned up. When you move a page like that, however, it's useful if you check "What links here" to see if you've broken any links. The instructions for "Move page" state:
- Links to the old page title will not be changed; be sure to check for double-redirects (using "What links here") after the move. You are responsible for making sure that links continue to point where they are supposed to go.
In this case there was only link, from The Nation, and I'll fix that. I'm just mentioning this for you to bear in mind the next time you move a page. JamesMLane 05:21, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
