Wow, that was what, more than 6 months ago?
Yea, that was a mess. I see that others have tried to move it with similarly chaotic results. Were we able to restore all the history from the original stub?
My problem is that the move as desired is not at all clear from the instructions. Have you got a line on the manual of "how to do"? I would like to read it and avoid similar problems next time.--[[User:Thomas Simmons|Thomas Simmons]] 17:28, 31 May 2008 (CDT)

Status

No longer a stub, it exceeds 350 words in length --Thomas Simmons 21:09, 1 November 2007 (CDT)

Good job on these planet articles, fellows--as an amateur astronomer (sort of), I appreciate them. --Larry Sanger 20:53, 8 November 2007 (CST)

Rename

Shifted to new title with redirect from previous --Thomas Simmons 13:41, 20 November 2007 (CST)

My apologies but when I shifted this to the new title I did not copy the discussion notes for the article under the old heading. If there is anyway to make sure the contributors and the originator can get proper credit I hope someone can retrieve the content of the history and the notes for the original heading. Once again, sorry if your contributions got lost. --Thomas Simmons 16:17, 20 November 2007 (CST)

Chronos?
