User talk:NotaBene

In case it wasn't just an accident (god knows I do it myself on occasion), when you move a subpage to the correct work, if you uncheck the "create a redirect" option before proceeding, you won't need to throw a delete template up on the original page location.

I looked for that option (I'm accustomed to having it on other wikis I edit), but didn't see it. Looking at e.g. moving Kantai Collection, I have options to move the subpages (or not) and watch the source and destination pages (or not), but no option not to leave a redirect. Is that permission restricted in this wiki's configuration?

Weird. If it's a configuration thing, I'll have to ask @Labster about it. This is the first I've heard of anyone not having the option on the move page.

That's normal. It's the suppressredirect user right. I have no problem handing out that permission to you. I have no idea whether handing that to confirmed accounts by default would be a good idea or not.

Most page moves should leave behind a redirect (if we're moving a work or trope to a new name); this was a corner case where I was moving a subpage to be a subpage of another work (COPS the reality TV show vs. COPS the cartoon), and having a redirect would have been inappropriate.

If a page gets moved without a redirect (when it should have a redirect), and breaks a bunch of links, we can just make the redirect afterwards, but I have seen a wiki vandalized by a confirmed user spamming page moves (without leaving redirects) and scrambling up their histories in the process. (In the end, after he was blocked, we rolled back to a previous backup and 'lost' the week prior to the attack.)

If my experiences are any indication -- and they may not, because I've never looked into seeing what is different between admin defaults and confirmed user defaults are -- but if they are, then creating a redirect is on by default and has to be explicitly undone. So anyone who spams page moves like that would have to be deliberately breaking things.

Thanks! And thank you for providing a loving home for said content base.

I watched the Stallone Dredd movie a long time ago, and while it wasn't as faithful to the comics as it could have been, it was a decent movie and had it's charms, was interested in seeing what a movie more faithful to the lore would be like, appreciate your hard work.

What I've seen of the Stallone flick is good, cheesy fun, but I couldn't let it stand as this wiki's last word on Dredd's film career.  :)
