Talk:Malebolge/Old history


Unnecessary page. Not edited in over 4 years. No inlinks. DexDor (talk) 07:45, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Withdrawn delete proposal in favour of converting to redirect (to preserve history). DexDor (talk) 19:07, 31 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep, as the page's history clearly shows, it contains page history of some merged content, which we need to keep for licensing purposes. Graham 87 10:21, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * How would anyone interested in licensing know that the page exists ? (I only came across it by looking for pages that are in an incorrect/unusual combination of namespace and category). DexDor (talk) 13:57, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
 * With great difficulty. :-) It's mentioned in the [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&page=Malebranche move log for "Malebranche"], but there really should be a note on the main talk page. As a wiki-archaeologist, I myself create old history pages like this all the time (e.g. Talk:Weekend/Old history), but I always leave a note at the main talk page about it (e.g. Talk:Weekend. Once this nomination is closed (or if you agree to withdraw it), I'll add such a note at Talk:Malebolge. Graham 87 09:13, 31 August 2014 (UTC)
 * OK, I've removed the MFD tag, replaced it by a redirect. Keep redirect if necessary for licensing. DexDor (talk) 19:07, 31 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge to Talk:Malebolge. Keep the redirect.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:22, 31 August 2014 (UTC)
