Renaming pages

I noticed you "renamed" the Controls page. Renaming existing pages is not done by "cut/paste" the information from one to the other. When you do that, you lose all the page history. Instead, to rename a page, you should use the "Move" function to move the old page to the new name. This allows you to move the associated talk page at the same time, it retains the full edit history (which is required for our licensing) and creates a redirect from the old page to the new one automatically. I have corrected the "rename" of the Controls page, but in the future, please use the proper process. Thanks for everything you do here! It is appreciated. -- Wynthyst talk 01:21, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Talk page etiquette

It's generally considered poor etiquette to delete comments from your talk page. Normally once your talk page becomes too long, or discussions become too old (more than 30 days) you would archive it for future reference. -- Wynthyst talk 06:19, 13 January 2012 (UTC)
