User talk:Atcovi/Custodianship Folder

Goldenburg, when you point to a discussion on a page that later might be archived or otherwise changed, link to a permanent version. For example, you link on the user page attached to https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/User_talk:Goldenburg111#conversation_about_the_past

If that page is changed so that the section isn't there any more, the link won't show the discussion. Instead, you could link to a permanent version. On the page, click on "Permanent Link" in the left panel. Then you can use the Table of Contents to jump to the discussion, and then copy your browser address bar information onto the page: https://en.wikiversity.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Goldenburg111&oldid=1121809#conversation_about_the_past

You can later update that if there is more material added to the "conversation." Really, all that you would need to change is the version number, shown as &oldid=1121809.

Fun fact: The version number is unique to that page and version, so the following link goes to the same page and section, without specifying the page title:

https://en.wikiversity.org/w/index.php?&oldid=1121809#conversation_about_the_past

Every Wikiversity page version therefore has a short numerical name, currently seven digits long. --Abd (discuss • contribs) 23:37, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
