Template:Orphan subpage: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 07:05, 29 January 2010

You may see this box for one of three reasons. Either:

B - Orphaned subpage; accidently not moved with the old cluster.

Click on the option that best describes what you are trying to do. Each hyperlink will give you some recommendations for the next step.

If you are in the process of starting a new cluster then:

The following links will be useful:

If you found this page by following a hyperlink to this page, you may have found an orphaned subpage or metadata page.

What next?

If this is a subpage:

a) with content:

Someone may have created subpage content without an article.
A page may have been moved to a new location and this page may have been accidently left behind.
- The former article might have existed at "Orphan subpage".
- Or it was created as a stand alone subpage and never had an associated article or metadata page.
Consider if there is a home to merge the data to or consider starting a cluster around this content.

b) without content:

If the article name includes a slash:

A slash (/) in a title is not compatible with the CZ subpages format.
Make this page into a redirect to a more appropriate name. For an example, see GNU/Linux.

The metadata template needs to be moved to the new name. It, or clues to its location can be found at the following link.
If this is the new metadata template the pagename field has been updated too soon. Change back to the old name and continue guided by the semiautomated Cluster Move Information box.
