My talk page

Welcome to my talk page. Please adhere to the talk page guidelines and particularly the following: It is easiest to use the "Add topic" link at the top of a talk page and "[ reply ]" link following each post but you may edit this page directly if you follow the above-mentioned guidelines for such. If you choose to edit the page directly, please observe the following in addition to anything else in the above-mentioned guidelines: Please post your new topic at the bottom of this page. Please sign and date your entry by inserting "~~~~" at the end. Please specify a descriptive "Subject/headline" for a new topic and separate subtopics by ===heading=== lines, if needed. Please indent your posts with one more ":" than what you are replying to, i.e. begin with ":" if replying to an existing topic and "::" if replying to a reply. Regarding replies and notifications: I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your Talk page (or the article Talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or use the "[ subscribe ]" link by each thread heading,or specifically let me know where you'd prefer the reply. If I left you a message; please answer on the page where the message was left, using {{ping|Username}}, {{reply to|Username}} or {{u|Username}} in your response, or add {{talkback|Username}} or {{whisperback|Username}} to my talk page. If you leave me a message here, I will answer here on my talk page, notifying you in the same manner. ⇒ Start a new Talk topic. This user does not mind criticism. Feel free to let him know if he did something wrong. This user is aware of the designation of the following topics as contentious topics: the Arab–Israeli conflict Falun Gong He should not be given alerts for those areas. This user talk page might be watched by friendly talk page stalkers, which means that someone other than me might reply to your query. Their input is welcome and their help with messages that I cannot reply to quickly is appreciated.

Hi there! I need to change the title of an article as the name of the institution mentioned is incorrect. It currently reads 'City Law School' whilst its brand name is 'The City Law School'. Do I need to make a request via the forum to achieve this? Or is there a quicker way since this is the entity's legal name? --Carodet (talk) 08:20, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Carodet, The process of changing the title of an article is called a move. Usually this is done because the current title does not fit our guidelines on article titles. If the move is straightforward and nobody objects, make a request at Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests, and a page mover will do it for you. However, IMO, this case is rather complicated, as generally 'The' isn't included in article titles. But... City Law School seems to have an emphasis on the 'The' in its title, so a technical move might be challenged. Therefore, what I would do is to start a discussion called a requested move on the talk page. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thank you. This is really helpful, however I do not understand how to use the request form. Apologies for wasting your time. Thanks for your reply. Carodet (talk) 15:19, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No wories at all! The process can be a bit confusing for newcomers. I've started the discussion for you, so all you need to do now is reply to my comment on the talk page with your rationale for the move. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 02:52, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for participating in the June 2024 backlog drive! You scored 38 points while adding citations to articles during WikiProject Reliability's first {{citation needed}} backlog drive, earning you this minor barnstar. Thanks for helping out!

Why did you delete everything for the talk and discussion page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.199.170.144 (talk) 05:26, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you delete everything from the talk and discussion page? You deleted a new entry, you gave one reason, when that reason was refuted, you deleted the answer. Also, you feel strongly about this. Why? 79.199.170.144 (talk) 05:28, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
