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, Commons, 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. |

Import of de:Josef Fraenkel to Josef Fraenkel
- Language: de.wikipedia.org:Josef Fraenkel
- New name: Josef Fraenkel
- Note: --Bubbeles (talk) 14:59, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- Note by importing administrator: Not done @Bubbeles: you would need to translate this first, would you like this imported to a sandbox for you to work on the translation first? — xaosflux Talk 15:07, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- Note: --Bubbeles Yes please. — Preceding undated comment added 15:33, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Bubbeles: Done, imported to User:Bubbeles/Josef Fraenkel. Graham87 07:12, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
Import of ja:ジキン to User:Fredlesaltique/Jikin
- Language: ja:ジキン
- New name: User:Fredlesaltique/Jikin
- Note: Trying to address a translation request template on the page for Jikin. Never used this feature before, so please let me know if I am doing this correctly or not. --Fredlesaltique (talk) 01:30, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
- Note by importing administrator: Not done @Fredlesaltique: This isn't really the right place for this request because of the existing article at Jikin goldfish and the overlapping history any import would create ... it'd be more trouble than it's worth. Graham87 03:56, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Graham87: I'd found this page on Category:Wikipedia articles needing cleanup after translation from Japanese and wanted to get my feet wet with an obscure article, since the guides on translating/importing articles are pretty obtuse. What sort of article could I try this out with? Fredlesaltique (talk) 04:16, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Fredlesaltique: I can't think of one ... honestly even for new articles importing is very much optional and is only strictly necessary in unusual circumstances (and from the German Wikipedia, due to their community's interpretation of copyright policy). Graham87 08:09, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Graham87: Hmmm I'll try and figure something out then. It'd be nice if I could mess around directly with the Japanese article code/data, then copy-paste the final translation into the English wikipedia page once it's finally finished. Not sure how to do that though. I appreciate all the help. Fredlesaltique (talk) 00:34, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Fredlesaltique: That's exactly what you're supposed to do ... then add {{translated page}} on the talk page to note the translation. Graham87 01:51, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

- Language: en:Gut Hermannsberg
- New name: Gut Hermannsberg
- Note: --Jakobwein (talk) 17:09, 9 February 2021 (UTC)Jakobwein
- Note by importing administrator: @Jakobwein: this says you want to import from English to English, and this page does not exist. Is there a different source language? Also, you will need to make the translation first at the new title, or let us import this to your sandbox for you to translate. How would you like to proceed? — xaosflux Talk 17:41, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
Import of fr:Inna Sissoko Cissé to Inna Sissoko Cissé
- Language: fr:Inna Sissoko Cissé
- New name: Inna Sissoko Cissé
- Note: Please import the history of this article which I translated.--—Naddruf (talk ~ contribs) 19:25, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
- Note by importing administrator: @Xaosflux: any reason you didn't actually reply to this one, despite removing the empty section? I actually think that this import should *not* be done, because the French version, as it says in the history there, is itself originally a translation from the Finnish article and the attribution in the page history of the English version is adequate as it is.
