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.
