The Walon Wikipedia was fortunate to have
received assistance in
migrating its data into Wikipedia. The Minnan Wikipedia still has
articles sitting out there. But knowing the developers' time is
highly constrained, we have not complained nor do we see it as a
"right" to receive such help.
If someone had *asked* we'd have been happy to help... I at least
never heard any request to do this.
I have *asked* if anybody can help to transfer the articles from old
holopedia to the newly created min-nan
wikipedia but it seems that developers are too busy.
Unfortunately it seems no one noticed this at the time...
At this point
it would be harder to merge two separate wikis that
have undergone separate development, but we can probably arrange
something if that's desired.
The dump is still out there

Can we copy the old articles with history to the new min-nan
wikipedia, to avoid conflict, we can try to
add a tag to old article name to be xxxx_old or something like that.
Once the xxxx_old articles are moved
to the new min-nan wikipedia, we can do the merge or rename of the
articles.
Can someone take a look at this? I'll try to get to it later in the
week if not (I'm at a conference right now with limited free time).
