Need somebody to create a template for me
Hi all,

Apologies in advance if I'm posting this to completely the wrong place.

I'm trying to put together a template for a Wikibook I'm working on (Library and Information Science/Cataloging and Classification), but I seem to not have the appropriate permissions. I'm trying to make a template that will make it easier to display nicely formatted MARC records (a data format used within the library world), but when I tried navigating to Template:MARCTag, but no "edit" or "create" option is available.

If somebody else could create a blank Template:MARCTag on my behalf, I would appreciate it greatly.

 * That's a handy feature, that I find annoying as well! The easiest way to fix it is to create a link to the template (e.g.,, then click the red link to create it... QU TalkQu 15:18, 3 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the help! Never would have figured that one out on my own. :-)

Messed up a move; could somebody fix please?
Hi all,

I just totally botched a move in a number of ways. I tried to move Introduction to Library and Information Science/Technology and Libraries: Impacts and Implications to Introduction to Library and Information Science/Technology and libraries: impacts and implications, not noticing that my book used title caps, not sentence caps, for chapter titles. I realized that I had made a mistake, and tried to revert my edits, and then when I couldn't do that, attempted to revert my move manually by copying/pasting. However, after realizing that the History pages had gotten mixed up, and after noticing some documentation that says not to do exactly what I just did, I realized my error.

I'm really sorry for being a nuisance, but could somebody revert my move on these pages and/or fix the history issue? Thanks in advance for your help. Sandbergja (discuss • contribs) 08:28, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Should be fixed, thanks QU TalkQu 11:38, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks, QU. I'll try to be more careful in the future... Sandbergja (discuss • contribs) 12:14, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
