This page is used for listing requests for [[WP:History merge|history merges]] or [[WP:HISTSPLIT|history splitting]] of pages. For relatively simple cases where history merge is required, the destination page should be tagged with the {{tl|histmerge}} template. This page should be used for requesting very complex merges, merges involving more than two pages, history merges of deleted pages, or when the use of the template is otherwise inadequate or where its usage would cause problems.

This page was originally for listing cut-and-paste moves which could not be repaired due to a then-extant technical limitation. The limitation has since been removed, but this page is still available if you find a cut-and-paste move, and are not able to repair it yourself (there is a [[Wikipedia:How to fix cut-and-paste moves|procedure]] for doing it, but only [[WP:Administrators|administrators]] can do it, and it is a bit tricky!).

Administrators need to read [[Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Fixing cut-and-paste moves]] and [[Wikipedia:Requested moves/Closing instructions]].

==The procedure==
* If the issue is clear-cut (straight-forward cut-and-paste move(s) to a different title), place a {{tlxb|histmerge|NAME OF PAGE THE ARTICLE WAS CUT FROM}} template at the '''new location''' of the article which has been moved through cut and pasting, i.e. on the article where the '''pasting''' was done.
* In more complex cases (explained at [[Wikipedia:How to fix cut-and-paste moves]]), please leave a description of the problem under the "Repair requests" section. An administrator will look over the pages and perform whatever tasks are necessary and update the request.
* Tasks that have been completed or do not need further discussion will be removed.

==Repair requests==

===New requests===
* A new editor executed multiple copy-paste page moves with his article: [[Draft:Washington Heights Elementary School]] was first copy-paste moved to [[Washington Heights Elementary]], which was then subsequently copy-paste moved to [[Washington Heights Elementary School]]. Both previous locations had edits by other users between creation and the copy-paste moving. [[User:Bensci54|Bensci54]] ([[User talk:Bensci54|talk]]) 18:01, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

===Requests awaiting discussion or decision on a query===

===Requests done===
*{{done}} Please reconstruct [[Particulate pollution]] from [[Pollution and Particles]] and [[Particles and Pollution]]. The established page [[Particulate pollution]] was moved to [[Particles and Pollution]]. It then seems to have been copy-pasted over the redirect at [[Particulate pollution]] and improved with additions before moving to [[Pollution and Particles]]. We probably need one article called [[Particulate pollution]], combining all but the latest revisions of [[Particles and Pollution]] with the latest revision(s) of [[Pollution and Particles]]. Ping: {{u|Brian Bondarchuk}}. [[User:Certes|Certes]] ([[User talk:Certes|talk]]) 16:13, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

===Rejected requests===
*{{ping|Dl2000}} [[Saharanpur State University]] to [[Maa Shakumbhari University]] 2000 Pasay mayoral recall elections and the 2 pages are very unlike at any possible cut-and-paste move point. [[User:Anthony Appleyard|Anthony Appleyard]] ([[User talk:Anthony Appleyard|talk]]) 17:23, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
*{{ping|MrLinkinPark333}} [[User:Saigafilms/BATTLE OF THE BRIDES]] and [[User:Saigafilms/Battle of the Brides (Co Dau Dai Chien)]] to [[Battle of the Brides]] :: triple [[WP:Parallel histories]] between all three articles. [[User:Anthony Appleyard|Anthony Appleyard]] ([[User talk:Anthony Appleyard|talk]]) 10:04, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
*{{ping|Diannaa}} [[Draft:2000 Pasay mayoral recall elections]] to [[2000 Pasay mayoral recall elections]] :: [[WP:Parallel histories]].[[User:Anthony Appleyard|Anthony Appleyard]] ([[User talk:Anthony Appleyard|talk]]) 17:28, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
