==Moving pages==
Hi Mark - I had to make a few deletions and recreations following the recent changes to [[WikiIndex:InterWiki]] and its talk page.  This was because by simply copying content from one page name to another slightly different by using the 'cut/copy/paste' will remove the edit history from the original pagename - and a full edit history is part of the terms of attribution for our CC-BY-SA license.  On MediaWiki, if you need to 'move' an existing page to another page which already exists as a redirect (back to the one you want to change) - you really need to delete said target redirect page first - this will then allow the correct use of the 'move' function, and more importantly, preserve all edit history.  Hope you don't mind me correcting this.

Oh, and are you able to fix the redirect for the InterWiki link in the [[Special:ListGroupRights]] so that it redirects to [[WikiIndex:InterWiki]].  I don't think sysops can do that.  Best regards, [[User:Hoof Hearted|Sean, aka <small>Hoof Hearted</small>]] • <sub>[[:Category:Active administrators of this wiki|Admin]]</sub> • <small>[[User talk:Hoof Hearted|talk2HH]]</small> 02:07, 16 October 2012 (PDT)
