Draft:Let Them Eat Cake (movie)


Earlier version of material by same contributor as in Draft:Let Them Eat Cake  &mdash; jmcgnh  (talk) (contribs)  15:42, 22 October 2017 (UTC) The draft Let Them Eat Cake was moved to Let Them Eat Cake (movie), but when it was moved it was stripped of its formatting and references. Is this why it was nominated for deletion? Should I re-edit that page as well? What happened? What should I do? Sedaray (talk) 00:35, 24 October 2017 (UTC) No NO! I know better. I didn't move it!!!! They told me not to do anything and the editor would add the (movie) disambig. to the article. Now it's a mess! I didn't do it!!! What should I do now? Sedaray (talk) 00:55, 24 October 2017 (UTC) You sent me to a template that itself is marked for deletion. Please tell me in plain English what to do. I appear to be the victim of a committee. I can copy (properly) my good draft "Let Them Eat Cake" to the messed-up "Let Them Eat Cake (movie)". It needs to be there. Should I do that? Take a look at the original draft and let me know what to do: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Let_Them_Eat_Cake Sedaray (talk) 03:12, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect. Please read WP:ATD. Don’t bring things to deletion fora that are easily attended to by redirection. If redirection is not good enough, explain why. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 04:08, 23 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep – thanks to SmokeyJoe for guidance. I agree that this nomination was an error and better handled through a redirect.  &mdash; jmcgnh  (talk) (contribs)  05:12, 23 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Sedaray, you should not create pages by copy-pasting from another page, as you did 06:34, 15 October 2017‎. Instead, you can WP:MOVE pages to new titles and new locations.  No, don't fix the old version.  I proposed that we keep the edit history available, but as it was all your work, you can have it deleted by tagging it with db-g7.  Redirecting the older page to the newer page is the easiest thing to do.  Next time, WP:Move, don't WP:Copy-paste.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 00:47, 24 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I'll admit that the loss of formatting was the reason I guessed that this one I nominated for deletion was "older" and part of my thinking that it should be deleted. Looking again, it seems instead that it was a copy-paste not from the raw source but from the rendered version. It would seem like the best course would be for you to to db-author it or something like that, so that this messed-up version is out of the picture, and we can go back to only worrying about the one that's in fairly good shape. Otherwise, if nothing else is decided, it would be my plan to simply turn it into a redirect.  &mdash; jmcgnh  (talk) (contribs)  02:11, 24 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm going to take this discussion to User talk:Sedaray, since it's ranging out of scope for this deletion nomination which I've effectively withdrawn (I'm simply waiting for it to be closed with speedy keep.)  &mdash; jmcgnh  (talk) (contribs)  04:16, 25 October 2017 (UTC)
