[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Channel 6 (Ireland), without good reason. They need to have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

There is good reason, channel changed name, it did not close down, it was bought buy another company who had a share in Channel 6. IrishTV (talk) 23:43, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
You are expected to achieve consensus before executing a page move. This is wikipedia policy as defined in the template above. Melody Concertotalk 23:44, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
Appoligies the page move happen a number of years ago when the name of Channel 6 became 3e, it was later moved again by another editor. IrishTV (talk) 23:45, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
I will look at the extended edit history. Apologies in advance if this is indeed the case; I will assist you in requesting move protection if this is a persistent issue with the article. Melody Concertotalk 23:48, 1 July 2015 (UTC)

3E
[edit]I don't think it was the same channel as C6. I think it was a completely different identity. And a worse channel for that matter. Would you consider Phantom FM and TXFM the same If not, why Channel 6/3E? 109.255.120.83 (talk) 17:17, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi, at Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge we're striving to bring about 10,000 article improvements and creations for the UK and Ireland and inspire others to create more content. In order to achieve this we need diversity of content, in all parts of the UK and Ireland on all topics. Eventually a regional contest will be held for all parts of the British Isles, like they were for Wales and the Wedt Country. We currently have just over 1900 articles and need contributors! If you think you'd be interested in collaborating on this and helping reach the target quicker, please sign up and begin listing your entries there as soon as possible! Thanks.♦ --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:41, 28 September 2016 (UTC)

Avoiding cut-and-paste moves
[edit] Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into National Symphony Orchestra (Ireland). This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.
