Page MenuHomePhabricator

A Special page to move users from watching one page to watching another should be created
Open, LowestPublic

Description

Use case: Administrators need to merge one page (Acronyms) with another (Abbreviations), but they want watchers on the old page (Acronyms) to end up on the new page.

Normally this would happen when the page is moved, but merging it doesn't do that.

I would put "Needs Volunteer" on this myself, but I'm not in the right group.

I would put "Needs Volunteer" on this myself, but I'm not in the right group.

Under "Action" there is no "Change priority" in the dropdown for you? Because that works with my average account here. Should not require any permissions.

Hey, I've made an extension for this. It is available at https://github.com/ty-a/MoveWatchers

Though it's probs still a little rough, I hope it can do what you need.
