    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.

    Guidelines for admins

    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:

    1. Import "bar". When asked for the namespace, select "MediaWiki talk".
    2. Move "foo" to "MediaWiki talk:bar". When asked whether you want to delete the page, answer yes.
    3. From the "move succeeded" window, there is a link to the page history at "MediaWiki talk:bar". Activate it, perhaps in another tab or window, and there will be some text in the form "View or restore xxx deleted edits?". Activate the link associated with that text and undelete the imported edits that you need. The remaining edits will stay safely deleted in the MediaWiki talk namespace.
    4. Revert the move you made in step two. Uncheck the box that says "Leave a redirect behind", since redirects from the MediaWiki talk namespace are useless. If you want, you can use the "revert" link in the "move succeeded" window. The page move should go without a hitch.

    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.




    Freakolympics

    Import of [[::]] to [[]]



    Freakolympics is a weekly program on KXradio (formerly VARA and from 2004 to March 2006 Yorin FM -) program in which Rob Stenders delved into pop history .

    In 1997 Rob Stenders started Freakolympics with Fred Siebelink at his side. Every Friday night they present this program for fans of pop music who would like to discover lost music gems. For five years Stenders worked on the so-called Nerd alphabet. All songs from pop music that are relevant in his opinion are arranged alphabetically in a list that should never be exhaustive. From March 2006 it can be heard on the internet station KX Radio , first on Friday evenings with Fred Siebelink, then on Monday mornings from 9:00 am to 11:00 am. And then every Thursday from 14:00 - 16:00 from the KX studio with Stenders and Siebelink.

    In January 2015 the (provisional) last FreakOlympics will be broadcast on KX Radio.

     Not done not only is this request completely malformed, but this is not the right place for this at all. If you want to draft a new article, please see Wikipedia:Articles for creation. — xaosflux Talk 14:09, 6 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
