Talk:Solar updraft
Cleaning up[edit]
This page solar updraft was a nonsensical redirect to Solar tower (astronomy) following this bot edit which I will revert.
It wasn't the bot's fault. Part of the mess was this sequence of moves
05:56, 11 October 2018 Graham87 talk contribs block m 43,449 bytes 0 Graham87 moved page Solar tower (astronomy) to Solar updraft tower over a redirect without leaving a redirect 05:54, 11 October 2018 Graham87 talk contribs block m 43,449 bytes 0 Graham87 moved page Solar updraft tower to Solar tower (astronomy): history merge, yes that's really where the history ended up ...
which I'm sure made sense to Graham87 and don't intend to investigate further (but input from them welcome).
Once upon a time we had quite a lot of sourced material on a fanciful solar updraft proposal in Australia. As with the equally ill-fated fossil fuel bridge proposal this material seems to have disappeared completely from the Internet. It would be good to restore the information on both IMO, as they are both of great interest to the current vigorous energy debate. But obviously we now need to base it on old print sources, and be careful to avoid OR. Andrewa (talk) 01:32, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
- @Andrewa: Oops, thanks very much for letting me know. A history merge fixes the attribution of edits; the problem in this case was that I didn't think to do the second move listed above in the move history without a redirect ... and I also forgot to check the result of my history merge for bad redirects. I've gone and fixed the other bad redirects caused by EmausBot. I don't know anything about this subject area. Graham87 05:51, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
