Importing and import uploading
editTo preserve edit histories and observe the attribution requirements of the licenses, content from our sister projects should be imported rather than simply pasted into a new module.
- Importers can import pages from any of the English-language projects, Simple English Wikibooks, Meta, and Wikispecies.
- Administrators, and import uploaders, can import from any wiki (even non-WMF).
Requests to import can be made to help in making or expanding a book, and to move works from other projects that fit Wikibooks' scope.
- Place requests below and an administrator or importer will try to perform the import promptly.
- Note that administrators and importers are not responsible for moving and cleaning up pages. Please watch this page for when the import is complete and take care of the imported page.
Administrators and importers:
- Please read Help:Importing first.
- To import a page, go to Special:Import.
- Pages will by default import into
Transwiki:Page's name
, which can be moved to a new location. - After import, add {{dewikify}} to the page and make a note where the imported page has ended up.
- Pages with extremely long edit histories may fail to import. In this case, a single revision which gives attribution to the source wiki will be imported. While this isn't ideal, it should satisfy our licensing. Note that repeated attempts to import may eventually bring over the history, so if it fails on the first attempt, you might want to try it a few more times. Please see T17000, and ask for it to be resolved sooner.
In some cases an import may partially fail and need to be repeated. If this happens, the revisions may be out of sequence in the history so you need to check the current revision is the one you want to use as the base for your book |
Non-free media uploading
editWhere non-free media is required in a book, editors may request an administrator or uploader to upload the file by making a request below. Please provide the non-free media rationale.
Import and Merge
editUse this section for imports that need to be "history-merged" with a module that has already been started using copy-paste.
