Champak (magazine)[edit]

There is another article called Champak (magazine) that has an extensive edit history going back to May 2010. In March 2008 Champak was redirected to Magnolia champaca, and later a new article for the magazine was started. Then the redirect was reversed. Someone who is skilled at this sort of thing needs to merge the two articles. ... discospinster _talk 02:40, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Talk: The aticles has not been merged into one another but I created a redirect link at the Champak (magazine) article to the Champak main article.

Thank You !--Napsync (talk) 03:31, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The history merge is needed to preserve the contributions of the various editors. If we just blank the Champak (magazine) page and make it into a redirect, the information that was added is lost. ... discospinster _talk 02:50, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Napsync : I completely filled the Champak article with the same content as of (magazine) and placed the redirection there. Please do not stick these tags,

                                I shall be highly oblized to you for this act of kindness.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Napsync (talk • contribs) 02:59, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think you understand what I'm saying here. I'm not talking about the content, I am talking about crediting the other editors that contributed to the Champak (magazine) article. If you blank the page and redirect it, their contributions are not acknowledged. This is a problem because Wikipedia must attribute all edits to their proper authors. ... discospinster _talk 03:04, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I SEE : fine now there are 2 articles that are Champak & Champak (magazine) having same content, excellent Have a good day... May God Bless You !! --Napsync (talk) 03:09, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

They have the same content because you copied one into the other. Like I said, it has to be merged in a certain way in order to preserve the history. I might be able to do it but I'm not guaranteeing anything. ... discospinster _talk 16:02, 28 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

OK it seems to have worked. ... discospinster _talk 01:48, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
