Requests for page importation |
---|
This is a place to request that pages be imported with history of pages from other Wikimedia Foundation wikis to here. This might be done if a page was copied and pasted from a WMF wiki to here, or, in the case of the Nostalgia Wikipedia, to make very old revisions accessible. Administrators can import pages from Meta, the Outreach Wiki, the Test2 Wikipedia site, and the German, Spanish, French, Italian, Polish, and Nostalgia Wikipedias to the English Wikipedia (see Phabricator task 22280 for relevant shell permission requests, and to request permissions for importing from more projects). It is also possible to indirectly perform a transwiki import from other projects by using step-wise process through a third project that has a project mapping already created, although using the export/import process may be simpler.
Check the history of the source page before importing. If there are overlapping edits between the source and destination page, import the edits into the MediaWiki talk namespace, since it is very rarely used. Follow this procedure, where "foo" is the title of the page in the English Wikipedia and "bar" is the title of the source page:
The same procedure can be used when there are no overlapping edits, but in this case, it's best to move the page first, so the import appears in the page history. In general, do not use the "assign edits to local users where the named user exists locally", leaving this off will indicate in the history the project the edits came from and you won't have to worry about non-created accounts here. See User:Graham87/Import for guidelines on importing from the Nostalgia Wikipedia. There is a log of all page imports at Special:Log/import. |

- Note by importing administrator: @Bay Staatsoper: Not done; we can't import non-English articles straight into the main namespace. It'd be better to let me import it into your userspace first. Also I think it'd be a good idea to start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Opera first, before doing anything ... to figure out the best title of the article, etc. Graham87 15:23, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
@Bay Staatsoper and Graham87: A page importation is not needed, because the article has been edited by the same author in German Wikipedia. Following miniature edits have a too low threshold of originality. I copied the article into the workspace of the author to user:Bay Staatsoper/Sandbox. This case can be closed.
