Create a Draft namespace on English Wikiquote
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Hello, per previous discussion on Administrator Notice Board, we need a draft namespace to deal with a host of articles until they are fixed.
We got consensus on such solution; however, we don't have a draft namespace on our project.

Hi @Lemonaka Could you please confirm if the robot policy should be "noindex,nofollow" for both draft and draft talk, and if you also want the visual editor on draft namespace (obviously on draft talk it can't be enabled)?

Hello, @Superpes15 , thanks for your question. Only for draft namespace if possible.

Hello, @Superpes15 , thanks for your question. Only for draft namespace if possible.

Thanks @Lemonaka! And what about the VE?

Also, if you want, we can set that INDEX and NOINDEX magic word doesn't work on draft NS (so one can force indexing drafts)! Do you agree?

Oh noeees

Wq:SheSaid / shesaid will need a new prefix, I think.

Wq:SheSaid / shesaid will need a new prefix, I think.

The pages are https://en.wikiquote.org/w/index.php?oldid=2910714 and https://en.wikiquote.org/w/index.php?oldid=2906032 (or https://en.wikiquote.org/w/index.php?curid=234564&redirect=no and https://en.wikiquote.org/w/index.php?curid=234278&redirect=no), and both are (as you might expect) just redirects to Wikiquote:SheSaid. I suggest a sysop deletes them, I don’t think it’s necessary to have namespaceDupes move them to a real title.

Done!
P.S. Please @Lemonaka remember to fix the issue by deleting the 2 redirects if possible! Thanks :)

Oh, and I forgot to mention it, but those broken redirects probably come from https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/mediawiki-config/+/734383 (T293839), they’re not related to this change. (But it would still be nice to fix them.)

@Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE @Superpes15 Trying to delete them give me a error called [b12e94ba-5530-47a6-b7de-ce13f7430ad2] 2024-02-02 03:49:15: Fatal exception of type "MediaWiki\Page\PageAssertionException"

Reopen, see above. I cannot delete such pages.

Looks good!

Page 1 and page 2 should be deleteable now.

Thanks, then I think this is done again.
