[edit] prevent page recreation

There are two ways of doing it.

The old way:

  1. Create the page with {{deletedpage}}
  2. Protect the page

The new way:

  1. Make sure the page is deleted
  2. Go to WP:PT. Click on the current month (now March 2007).
  3. Add {{protected title|article name}}, see {{protected title}} for other parameters.
  4. For it to take effect, you have to purge the current month - http://en.wikipedia.org../../../p/r/o/Wikipedia%7EProtected_titles_March_2007_List_e719.html

[edit] RFA notes

There are two sides of the "namespace balance" argument...Some auto-oppose anyone who doesn't have 500 kazillion article edits and some auto-oppose anyone who doesn't have 500 kazillion edits to xFD debates. They are both extreme end of the spectrum positions... Take a look at WT:RFA and there's plenty of discussion about why both are bad positions to take and how it is harmful to Wikipedia to oppose a valued user simply because they contribute in a different way than you do, but at the end of the day, there will still be a significant minority who will oppose for a variety of reasons.

[edit] Instructions for moving an image to WikiCommons

See Wikipedia:Moving images to the Commons. There is a great tool that you can use - http://tools.wikimedia.de/~magnus/commonshelper.php - that does 99.999% of the work for you. You just point it to the image that you want to move and it adds the text for the Commons description page. You need to create a Commons account first. Then open this tool, enter the name of the image that you want to move and then when it asks you to, save the Wikipedia version of the image to your hard drive. It will take you to the Commons upload page and it will already be fully decked out. Then, you come back to Wikipedia and tag the image with {{subst:ncd}} so that the Wikipedia copy of the image can be deleted (the Commons page will "show through"). If you have an image that is potentially useful, but isn't being used in an article right now, moving it to Commons is a great way of making sure that it doesn't get deleted as an orphaned image. Wikipedia isn't free webhosting and if an image is orphaned and we can't figure out at WP:IFD what it's supposed to be used for, it will be deleted. But if it is put on Commons (and preferably add it to an appropriate gallery or category), it's safe. --BigDT 22:41, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
