Saumarez Homestead[edit]

Created by Freikorp (talk). Self nominated at 12:16, 15 October 2014 (UTC).

  • Comment from nominator: I'll be on vacation from October 22 till November 2, so if there is a problem with the nomination i'd appreciate it if you didn't close it until I have returned and have a chance to address concerns but no worries if this is not feasible. Also as per my last DYK nomination I was told to "use the move function instead of copy-pasting from [my] sandbox [next time I create an article]. I did that for the first time with this article, but I can't help but feel I did something wrong, as the article's history now contains the 4 year history of my sandbox. I'll stick to copy-pasting next time. Freikorp (talk) 12:35, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
  • The general idea of using Move is precisely so that the edit history will credit the many editors who contributed before the article was moved. However, in the case where you're the only editor, a copy-paste is fine. If you like, you can ask an admin to revdel (or something -- I forget the term) the edit history so all your embarrassing sandbox edits won't be on display to the whole world as they are now.

  • Thanks, will do. Freikorp (talk) 04:15, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
  • This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are suitably sourced, the article is neutral and has no policy issues, and QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:32, 22 November 2014 (UTC)
