Forum:Saving comments when switching from articles to talk pages

We have a discussion about whether we should switch from article comments to talk pages. The problem is that the comments will be deleted after the switch.

Is there a way to save the comments? Teyandee 14:15, July 31, 2011 (UTC)

I dont think so. TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 14:49, July 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * Comments are not deleted when switching back to talk pages.
 * They are also not deleted if yours switch the article namspace from main to something else ie.WIKINAME Wiki: ,when you switch the namespace back they will still be there --Tama 63  15:08, July 31, 2011 (UTC)


 * Comments don't go away, but they're hidden from wiki users and just live some where frozen in the DB, right? I think what Teyandee wants is some process to convert comments into indented wikitext threads. -- Fandyllic (talk &middot; contr) 31 Jul 2011 4:14 PM Pacific
