Talk:Florida, history

The metadata subpage is missing. You can start it via filling in this form or by following the instructions that come up after clicking on the [show] link to the right.

Do you see this on PREVIEW? then SAVE! before following a link. There is no Metadata template or article page associated with this subpage. This is an Orphan subpage. Details: You may see this box for one of three reasons. Either: A - New page has been created B - Orphaned subpage; accidently not moved with the old cluster. C - Cluster move is in progress Click on the option that best describes what you are trying to do. Each hyperlink will give you some recommendations for the next step. [Feel free to recommend improvements to the text or links in this template] A - New page created If you are in the process of starting a new cluster then: The following links will be useful: Create the metadata page . Create the article page ; Constables will create the approval page when article is approved. B- Orphaned subpage 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 "Florida, history". 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: As this page is not associated with any article it should probably be deleted. 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 Linux. [Feel free to recommend improvements to the text or links in this template] C- For a Cluster Move 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. [Feel free to recommend improvements to the text or links in this template]

Comma-itis is what we have here. Should be History of Florida -Tom Morris 09:20, 29 September 2008 (CDT)

Or Florida (history)? Chris Day 09:43, 29 September 2008 (CDT)

I would prefer History of Florida (that's what it is called on Wikipedia, from whence it was copied), but I wasn't sure of the outcome of earlier discussions on how to format article names. -- Donald Albury 10:25, 29 September 2008 (CDT)

Well, we've already got (e.g.) North Carolina, history, California, history to 1845, and California, history to 1846, so if the title of this article is to be changed, several others will have to be changed too. Bruce M.Tindall 11:43, 29 September 2008 (CDT)

There was this discussion on how to format such names a few months ago. I haven't found where it was resolved, although Larry Sanger thought it needed to be generalized, and suggested the discussion be moved to here. -- Donald Albury 12:08, 29 September 2008 (CDT)

Oh, and it's North Carolina, History (capital H, no redirect from the miniscule version), just to confuse things. -- Donald Albury 12:23, 29 September 2008 (CDT)
