If nothing is being worked on anymore, then redirect.
Well I do this whenever I was the only one who edited the /Temp page
but whenever other people contributed to the /Temp page then I go
through the hackish process to merge the /Temp edit history with the
parent page's edit history.
Another way would be to _rename_ the 'live' page to the /Temp page to
work on it, and leave a protected copy in place at the old name. Then
when the updates are done, rename it back in place with all history
intact.
It would /really/ be nice to have a "combine page
histories" option
for Admins.
I'm reluctant to do such as there's presently no way to extricate the
combined histories if one makes a mistake (or, hypothetically, a rogue
sysop goes on a rampage) short of checking backup archives and manually
reassigning the entries.
