Archiving issues for this talk page

[edit]

Dimadick JJMC89 Sorry for the multiple pings - you all have either edited this article or posted on the talk or I think you're swell & experienced. I can't figure out how to fix the Archiving & the Archives because as I've discovered it's kind of a mess.
Here's a timeline:

  • auto-archiving worked great until January 2023 when an anon deleted the algo code.
  • There was a big ongoing discussion on this talk page about usage of the term genocide etc. A now-blocked user was editing the article itself etc.
  • On March 19, 2023 a huge archived thread was copied from Archive2 and pasted to this page but the archived content was also left in place at Archive 2.
  • On March 19, 2023, as requested here on the talk page auto-archiving was turned off.
  • The Nobots code was removed April 13, 2023 but the talkheader info was - and still is - hidden.

So. I'd like to reinstate the algo code etc since this talk page hasn't archived since 2023 but since all that content was reinstated & subsequently then apparently replied to?...not sure what is best. Would appreciate some advice/clarity on how best to proceed. Thanks, Shearonink (talk) 21:06, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I don't really know how the algo code works, or if there is some specific rule about archiving. Dimadick (talk) 21:09, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks anyway. I can put in the code for auto-archiving myself but the problem is that content was copied & pasted over here but the original content was also left at Archive 2. So some posts are in two places at once... Ah well, maybe I'll BRD and if I mess it up even more someone else will have to try to fix all this. - Shearonink (talk) 22:40, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Threads are now in their proper places, here or in Archive 2. No duplication. Cheers - Shearonink (talk) 23:06, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Add "genocide" to the list of "Attack type[s]"

[edit]

The article itself adds that many call the Trail of Tears a genocide, or at least an attempted genocide, and many historians support such claims. Pierre151 (talk) 20:47, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
