[edit] Combining pages
When you combine pages like you've done with Collin county parks and open spaces, it isn't necessary to delete the source pages (and in fact they shouldn't be deleted due to licensing concerns). After you move the information, you just need to put a redirect at the original article with the following format: (#REDIRECT [[Name of article you want to redirect to]]). This is called Merging. I've gone ahead and merged Parkhill Prairie to Collin county parks and open spaces for you and closed the Article for Deletion discussion.--Isotope23 19:31, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:My change to Collin County Parks and open spaces
Hi - you wrote: The actual office of park and open space management is called "Collin County Parks and Open Spaces". The page was not about just any 'open space' in collin county but about the five parks maintained or owned by this county office. I think the page should be returned to it's original title and I'll make it clear in the article that this is an official title and not a general 'parks and spaces' collection.
- Sorry - I didn't know that. But maybe it would make more sense to make the article more general and include other open spaces, rather than risk the possibility of stub articles arising for other parks? It could be made clear in the article that these five are administered by one organization... I'm fairly easy either way, though, if you want to move it back. The main reason I moved it was actually because the original title did nothing to indicate that the county is in Texas, and the Collin County article itself is at Collin County, Texas. Grutness...wha? 21:38, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Monobook edit
Hello, Transderm, I wanted to let you know that I have edited your monobook file because it was incorrectly appearing in Category:AfD debates (Not yet sorted). This should not cause any problems for you, but if it should for some reason please make sure that you do not reinsert yourself in the category when you fix it.
