Originally from: http://sourceforge.net/p/pywikipediabot/feature-requests/144/ Reported by: Anonymous user Created on: 2008-04-19 14:50:59 Subject: Recreate deleted page Original description: I searched and found closed and open bugs on recreating deleted pages, but I think I can put it differently than others:

I *want* to use pagefromfile to upload a large amount of text that a user upload badly by hand. Those pages have been deleted and would be much better created en masse by the bot. I understand why most people would not want their bots creating previously deleted pages, but it should be an option. Even if I had to hit "Y" every time like I do with deletes, it should be possible.

I tried removing the pertaining objections in wikipedia.py, but the layout on editing a previously deleted page is too different.

This should be an easy error to recreate.
