... Id also like a way to turn a flow page back to wikitext for talk pages etc in case somebody doesnt like it (i havent been following closely enough to know if that is already possible)
Another option would be for existing LQT pages to 'be asked' if they want to change back to wikitext mode while Flow is being deployed. E.g. Some users may want to opt out now and add their user_talk on a list to be migrated from LQT to wikitext and not be Flowified. This will reduce the impact of they deploy, and may reduce the 'noise', allowing more focus on issues relating to pages that want/need Flow.
Many LQT pages have never really used the functionality provided, have only had a few posts each year with little interaction, and wont benefit from being auto archived in order to have Flow enabled.
Bot operators could do page conversion. Im guessing that would involve reproducing the LQT content as wikitext into the archive using the liquidthreads API, and then switching the page back to wikitext mode. Is page delete, page recreate the only way to switch it back to wikitext mode?
