Forum:Merging Programming Wiki with Programmer's Wiki

I want to merge all content at programming into code and have the former deleted. I don't know what processes are involved in this, so I want to get it cleared here before moving all 94 articles. (The only active citizen of w:c:programming is an IP user whose response I await.)

If community discussion is required, will you fix the forums, please? --Jesdisciple (talk) 00:56, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * It didn't work properly before since you forgot to create Template:Forumheader and its subpages. I created those for you already. I would also like to propose the merge of the Elder Scrolls Fanon, the English Morrowind, and the Morrowind Construction Set for the reasons I stated at Forum:Elder Scrolls Fanon/ Morrowind Merge. Thanks. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 01:28, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks very much! (The squeaky wheel gets the grease, eh?)
 * I should additionally note that the Programmer's Wiki admin is supportive of the merger (as long as it's backed by consensus on the Programming Wiki).
 * (I hold my breath to find whether mergers are even performed around here.) --Jesdisciple (talk) 01:41, 23 October 2008 (UTC)


 * If the wikis are consenting, you can use Special:Export and Special:Import (if you're an admin) to move all articles that don't have duplicate names; best use the "full history" (uncheck that option). Since I assume both wikis are GFDL, that won't be a problem. The pages that have duplicate names need work merging, and the staff isn't going to do that for you, I guess. An admin on the wiki that is to be deleted can then delete the pages and leave a notice on the main page; that way you can still take advantage of any links to it that may persist. --◄mendel► 14:12, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
