Text of the page (random words):
sambiguation pages and do not apply to redirects they also apply less strongly to list articles especially if splitting them would require breaking up a sortable table too large after templates are expanded main page help template template limits pages exceeding this limit are in category pages where post expand include size is exceeded after all templates and transclusions are accounted for the resulting post expand include size may reach a limit this can look like templates lower in the page such as the reflist or navigation templates not displaying properly one solution is to split the article since undoing a split may be labor intensive if significant editing happens to either page after the split try to avoid splitting until after a community discussion if there is another way to reduce the post expanded size that is easier to undo than a split consider doing it first then opening a discussion to see what the long term fix should be likewise if a split would be controversial try to find a less controversial way to temporarily reduce the post expanded size then open a discussion to find consensus for a long term fix however if splitting the page is the easiest to undo solution and such a split would not be controversial consider being bold and splitting the page then immediately opening a discussion to see if the community accepts the split or if it offers alternative solutions in this case be prepared to undo the split content split see also wikipedia ambiguous subjects multiple subjects with the same name shortcuts wp consplit wp consplit wp contentsplit wp contentsplit sometimes two or more distinct topics may share the same base title or similar titles such as light which may refer to electromagnetic radiation a component that produces light or spiritual illumination sometimes the distinct topics may be closely related such as coffea the plant and coffee the product or thermal energy and heat when two or more distinct topics with the same or similar titles are being written about on the same page even if they are closely related a content split may be considered and a disambiguation page created to point readers to the separate pages before proposing a split consideration must be given both to notability of the offshoot topic and to potential neutrality issues if one or more of the topics is not notable on its own it may be more appropriate to simply remove the material from wikipedia than to create a new article if unsure start a discussion on the article s talk page using a template procedure shortcut wp prosplit wp prosplit for disambiguation pages use split dab instead of split if the section to be split out is known use split section if an article meets the criteria for splitting and no discussion is required editors can be bold and carry out the split if unsure or with high profile or sensitive articles start a split discussion on the article talk page and consider informing any associated wikiproject s additionally adding one of the splitting templates will display a notice on the article and list it at category articles proposed for splitting this will help bring it to the attention of editors who may assist in establishing consensus in deciding if a split is appropriate or in carrying out the split templates used without an accompanying rationale and where there is no obvious reason for the split request may be removed at any time to comply with wikipedia s licensing requirements which require that all content contributors receive attribution the page receiving the split material must have an edit summary noting split content from article name you mustn t skip this step or omit the page name a note should also be made in the edit summary of the source article split content to article name the copied template can also be placed on the talk page of both articles for further information refer to the main copying within wikipedia guideline step 1 create a discussion skip to step 5 if making a bold split create a discussion on the talk page of the page from which the content is to be split include what sections are to be split and what the new page name should be example splitting proposal i propose that the section about blinker liquids be split into a separate page called blinker fluid the content of the section is only marginally related to the main article and this section is large and well sourced enough to make its own page to generate a discussion and to notify people who know a lot about the topic it is recommended to contact involved users these users can be frequent contributors the creator of the page or users who have a lot of posts on the talk page you can notify them by ping user1 user2 or by using a notice for their talk page subst splitnote article name new article name talk page failure to reach a consensus whether the result of a split discussion or a bold split that was contested usually results in the article remaining whole a contested bold split may be reverted however it is not always appropriate to redirect the new article to the old as the new article may stand on its own even if the main article that it came from is not split step 2 add notice use split to notify users of the proposed split on the article not the talkpage add split article 1 date september 2026 or split article 1 article 2 date september 2026 this template adds a box to notify users about the split if the new page name is unknown use split by itself with no parameters step 3 discuss in many cases a hybrid discussion straw poll is used but remember that polling is not a substitute for discussion example formatting support insert reason for supporting split here oppose insert reason for opposing split here step 4 close the discussion and determine the consensus shortcut wp splitclose wp splitclose during discussion a rough consensus may emerge to proceed with the split if there is a consensus to split and you don t intend to perform it immediately replace the split notice at the top of the article with being split keeping all other parameters to notify users about the result of the discussion any user including the user who first proposed the split may close the discussion and move forward with the split if enough time normally one week or more has elapsed and there has been no discussion or if there is unanimous consent to split closing of split discussions differs from closing of requested move discussions in that closings of uncontroversial split discussions by involved users are allowed admin tools are not needed unless page protection prohibits editing in more unclear controversial cases the determination that a consensus to split has or has not been achieved should be made by an editor who is neutral and not directly involved in the split proposal or the discussion if necessary a request to close the discussion can be made at the closure requests noticeboard to close a split proposal discussion the discussion top and discussion bottom templates are used in the following manner split proposal discussion top result the result of this discussion was to start of discussion end of discussion discussion bottom step 5 perform the split shortcuts wp correctsplit wp correctsplit wp propersplit wp propersplit don t give up yet splitting an article isn t as difficult as it looks there are a lot of steps but they re pretty easy just take them one at a time until you get to the end of the list the following procedure can be used for splitting a single source article into a new article these instructions are provided for guidance but some steps may not be necessary in all cases and these instructions may not cover every eventuality it is advisable to read through the whole of this procedure before starting if the material you want for the new article is scattered around the source article then prepare the source article by grouping the material to be split out into a single section save your changes with an edit summary like preparing to split article create the new article by opening the empty page or redirect page open the source article or relevant section to edit in a separate browser tab and copy the contents to be split out from the section created in step 1 from the source article paste into the new article with edit summary contents wp split from source article name please see its history for attribution and save the new article tidy up the new article the lead sentence will need to be changed to use bold font and usually includes a link to the source article a references section should be added and categories should be added there may also be sections of a bibliography navboxes see also section or external links that can be copied from the source article adjust section headings add any background information about the parent subject that will be necessary for the reader to understand the subtopic resolve any cite errors that occur when invocations of a named reference are separated from their definition i e copy the relevant information from the source article create a good summary of the subtopic at the parent article add main new article name use the order image main tag text if all the content of the section is being removed e g in the case of a list use the see template instead of the main template use the edit summary material wp split to new article name and save the edit add a summary usually of a couple of paragraphs and one image of the newly created subtopic unless complete removal is appropriate alternatively with a strong lead paragraph in the new article use an excerpt template to replace the section excerpt page title there may be some external links bibliography items etc that can be removed from the source article as they are now in the new article check special whatlinkshere to see whether some inlinks to the source article especially any that were to the section that has been split off can now be changed to point to the new article optionally add templates referring to the split to the talk pages if the new article is not being created from scratch e g there is already a redirect then go to the new article click on the view history tab select the edit where the copy was made open it and copy the diff url of the edit where the cut was made from the browser url window if the new article is being created from scratch it s a bit more complicated to obtain a diff url see template copied open the source article talk page to edit in a new tab add template copied from from_oldid to to_diff to the source article talk page and paste the diff url into it add the title of the new article and the date add a descriptive edit summary and save the edit open the new destination article talk page to edit in a new tab add template copied from from_oldid to to_diff to the new article talk page and paste the diff into it add the title of the source page and the date add a descriptive edit summary and save the edit on the talk page of the new article you can put the subarticle or summary in tag to create a banner that refers back to the main article optionally put wikiproject tags on the new article s talk page if possible connect the new article to any corresponding articles in other wikipedias see interwiki step 6 clean up if material is split from an article consider whether a summary section should be created and whether a main template should be placed at the top of the section to link to the new page in general if the split is due to size then a summary section is required if the split is due to content or scope then a summary section is unlikely to be required on the talk page of the new and old articles include the template copied if you or another editor split an article without adding the correct attribution add it afterwards following the procedure at wikipedia copying within wikipedia repairing insufficient attribution see also articles proposed for
