On the French Wikipedia, Copyvio edits are stored
in a /copyvio subpage (and
deleted of course). The procedure is:
1) Delete the page
2) Restore copyvio edits
3) Move the page to Page/copyvio
4) Delete this subpage
5) Restore non copyvio edits
6) Undo the last edit (the redirect made while renaming the page)
Couldn't this equally become:
1) Move the page to Page/copyvio, changing all redirects
2) Delete the subpage
3) Restore *non*-copyvio edits
4) Move the page back to Page, overwriting the redirect and changing
all redirects back
This is fewer steps, even, right?
Checking all non-copyvio edits is longer than just checking some copyvio
edits. Moreover, if there were deleted copyvios you also need to take
care into not restoring it. Plus this gives more work to the db ;)
