We get a lot of duplicate wishes. The way we typically deal with them is to redirect the duplicate to the original, along with copying/pasting any relevant content.
Instead I think we should do it like Phabricator, where the old wish remains fully intact (not a redirect), but we just hide it from the list of wishes.
Acceptance criteria
- Add a "Reason" dropdown when declining a wish that allows user to select "Duplicate"
- When "Duplicate" is selected as the "Declined" reason , users will see a text field where they can enter the duplicate wish ID (ex. W123)
- Wish selection can just be an input for the wish ID, until we have a better search in place
- After submission, change to the "declined" status.
- Insert template community wishlist decline wikitext in the wish's description (ex: {{Community Wishlist/Decline|duplicate|W456}} )
- If the proposer of the duplicate wish has a vote, it should be transferred to the other wish
- This doesn't include a way to merge descriptions of both wishes
Derived Requirement
Ensure that Wishlist moderators can close a wish as a duplicate without redirecting it.
- A "Duplicate" option is available in the "Reason" dropdown when declining a wish.
- When "Duplicate" is selected, a text field is displayed allowing entry of a duplicate wish ID (e.g., W123).
- Upon submission:
- The wish status changes to "Declined".
- The {{Community Wishlist/Decline|duplicate|W###}} template is inserted into the wish description using the provided wish ID.
- The declined duplicate wish remains accessible but is removed from the active wish list.
- If the proposer of the duplicate wish has voted on it, their vote is transferred to the referenced original wish.
- No automatic merging of descriptions occurs.
