, 02:18, February 19, 2014→Requesting article Move (rename): new section
Is there a way to split one article into two articles, leaving the same prior edit history in both and then letting the edit history diverge after the time of splitting as individual edits are made to either of the split articles? [[User:HPadleckas|HPadleckas]] 09:40, 18 February 2014 (EST)

== Requesting article Move (rename) ==
I request that the article [[Analytic chemistry]] be moved (renamed) to [[Analytical chemistry]] (currently a Redirect), which actually the name used for this field. Up to this point, I have not found a place in Conservapedia to request an article Move (renaming) better than this page. Although I could copy and paste the contents to the target page, that would not preserve the edit history in [[Analytic chemistry]].
I have degrees in chemistry (one from an well-established Catholic university) and have been an analytical chemist and otherwise involved with chemistry in my career. I have '''not''' heard of analytical chemistry being called "analytic chemistry" nor an analytical chemist being called an "analytic chemist". Furthermore, I did an internet search for both "analytical chemistry" and "analytic chemistry" and found the following results:
analytical chemistry - 18,100,000 results
analytic chemistry - 1,250,000 results
Furthermore, a scan of the first page or two of the "analytic chemistry" results shows the term "analytical chemistry" is used even in these results.
This topic is covered in articles or pages called "Analytical chemistry" in both Wikipedia, Citizendium, a Royal Society of Chemistry wiki called "Learning Chemistry" and a UCDavis ChemWiki site, all of which I'm a member. [[User:HPadleckas|HPadleckas]] 21:18, 18 February 2014 (EST)
