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. |

- Note by importing administrator: Not done; a new username doesn't change your conflict of interest. Graham87 (talk) 14:17, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
- I understand your concerns regarding the conflict of interest. However, I have already changed my username to address this issue and I would like to translate an existing German article about Dr. Mandy Mangler into English. The German article was not written by me. My intention is to provide a translation of a well-established German entry. Demian at Suhrkamp Verlag (talk) 14:03, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- Changing your username did not address this issue. The only thing that would if you just don't edit anything about the Suhrkamp publishing company ... at all. Graham87 (talk) 08:09, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- I understand. To clarify, I am not editing anything related to Suhrkamp. I want to translate an independent article about Dr. Mandy Mangler, an internationally recognized chief physician. Demian at Suhrkamp Verlag (talk) 08:37, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- She's featured on the Surhkamp website (as linked above) so that's a hard no here. Graham87 (talk) 15:43, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

- Note by importing administrator: Not done; you almost certainly have a conflict of interest due to your relative lack of experience on any Wikipedia edition, including German. Graham87 (talk) 01:37, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thx for your comment. So, maybe another person can translate this article? SchemickaEng (talk) 08:02, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- Maybe they can. Graham87 (talk) 13:59, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

- Note by importing administrator: Not done; the edit summary you wrote at the Skłodowska-Curie District article is completely adequate here; importation is not a standard procedure on the English Wikipedia. Graham87 (talk) 23:48, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
