Disambiguation link notification for September 5
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Hans Bobek, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Austrian (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Speedy deletion nomination of Eco.mont – Journal on Protected Mountain Areas Research and Management


A tag has been placed on Eco.mont – Journal on Protected Mountain Areas Research and Management requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Southern Alps
I see that you have moved Southern Alps to Southern Alps (New Zealand). As another editor has already pointed out to you, that's quite a significant change in article title and those things should really be discussed before you go ahead with it. At least you have provided a reasonably rationale for the move on the article's talk page. Either way, the original name ("Southern Alps") is now a disambiguation page and all the articles that were wikilinked to the article now point to this disambiguation page. Part of moving a page is to tidy up incoming links. Would you please go ahead and tidy up the incoming links to that dab page? You shouldn't really expect other editors to come along and tidy up after you. Thanks!  Schwede 66  05:30, 29 November 2015 (UTC)

Dear Schwede66, thanks for your valuable comment. Sorry for not having discussed the move in advance. Yet, as you acknowledge, it was necessary. Even a quick look on the incoming links page you posted underlines the usefulness of having the page moved and renamed: As you can see, many of the pages that once directed to the former "Southern Alps" page indeed were aimed at linking to other Southern Alps, see for instance the several pages of Japan-related content: they did not even aim to direct to the New Zealand mountain range—and this means that these links already were wrong. Of course I do not expect other editors to tidy up (I have already corrected several pages ...), but at the same time I cannot correct all the pages that were already mislinked. So I do not expect but hope that, as usual, collaboration between many wikipedians results in an improvement of the mislinked pages. Thanks! oc 15:54, 29 November 2015 (UTC)


 * I have proposed that Southern Alps (New Zealand) is the primary topic for Southern Alps. For the proposed move, please see Talk:Southern Alps (New Zealand). You're welcome to join in the discussion. —hike395 (talk) 20:54, 29 November 2015 (UTC)

I have reverted you bold move to Southern Alps under WP:RMUM. If you want to make a WP:RM you may do so, however given the opposition to the move in the recently closed RM Southern Alps (note it is a Kiwi Name under WP:TITLEVAR), you should think carefully before doing so as such a request could be seen as disruptive.

If you copy text from one article to another you must attribute such copied to meet copyright requirements (See WP:CWW and also the lead to WP:CUTPASTE). -- PBS (talk) 11:17, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
