Reference formatting
Please remember that, per WP:CITE, reference styles in articles should not be changed from one optional style to another en masse. This includes changing from one column of references to two via AWB. &mdash; Carl (CBM · talk) 02:17, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
 * If you are talking about WP:CITECONSENSUS it does not say "do not pass a column count parameter to the Reflist" it's saying do not convert to your talk page.
 * If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.

Salting the earth
Thanks for your contribution to the Salting the earth article. Your edit summary is "the point of the original practice should be defined for clarity because the old lead seems to imply that there was no original purpose" and your new text is "High levels of soil salinity will degrade a soils ability to produce vegetation, therefore, salting of the earth can be a long lasting method of handicapping a society's ability to support itself with agriculture."

But in fact the article does state the point in the lead: "to symbolize a curse on its re-inhabitation".

Though it is true that high salt levels can hurt agriculture, I don't think anyone believes that the Israelites (or anyone else) transported the necessary thousands of tons of salt to Shechem and spread it on the land; certainly no reliable source I've found claims that. Neither salt nor transportation (presumably by ox cart) was cheap. As the article says, this is a ritual. Salt has many symbolic connotations in the Bible and neither the original source nor any secondary sources say that making the land infertile is the purpose here. It is of course possible that it was a symbol of making the land infertile, but lots of other things are possible as well, and I have not been able to find any reliable sources that are more specific than saying that the purpose was to "consecrate" the city to God. Please read Talk:Salting the earth for more extended discussion. --Macrakis (talk) 17:08, 25 September 2011 (UTC)

Germans in Czechoslovakia (1918–1938)
You asked for this article to be split and have support. I am now trying to clear the backlog of split tags, but am having difficulty in doing this article. Would you be willing to do the split? Op47 (talk) 20:33, 4 February 2012 (UTC)


 * I would love to. Any suggestions on performing the ideal split?  I imagine that I should first ensure that content in this article pre-exists in the target articles and then request a redirect?  --Hutcher (talk) 21:26, 4 February 2012 (UTC)


 * I hope I havn't offended you, but I decided to sort it out myself, on the grounds that you would be better placed to review and correct my work rather than the other way round. In the end, there was no material that ought to have gone in Carpathian Germans and so it was in effect a merge from Germans in Czechoslovakia (1918–1938) to Sudeten Germans. I am not sure if someone had previously done the split but forgot to remove the split tag. Either way, the merge needed doing otherwise there would be 2 articles with identical scope but diverging in content. Hope this is ok Op47 (talk) 15:25, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
