Have fun editing! One little thing though...I think the stray letter here was actually intentional, showing that the amount raised was in Australian dollars (as opposed to American or Canadian). Other than that, all good edits. Howicus (Did I mess up?) 18:35, 22 September 2013 (UTC) (Lawful Good)[reply]

Ah, good catch! I'll put it back in just now, if it's not already been done. And, thanks - I read a ton of random wiki stuff so I figured I might as well fix the few little things I run across. :) Brainmurk (talk) 19:00, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

October 2013[edit]

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Sokushinbutsu may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

'''Sokushinbutsu''' ({{linktext|即|身|仏}}) 】) refers to a practice of Buddhist monks observing austerity to the point of death and mummification.

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Davidson Fort a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut-and-paste-move repair holding pen. Thank you.
