From Wikimedia Incubator
Since July 2007, closed projects will be imported to Incubator. All import actions are logged at Special:Log/import.

[edit] Adding new ones
- Go to m:Proposals for closing projects/Archive
- Add the newly closed projects, last updated: 1 November 2007
- Add it like this:
{{/li|lang=English|project=Wikipedia|subdomain=en
| status = {{not done}}
}}
- Import
- Move it to the archive section
[edit] Closed projects
It would be better and easier if there is a incubator parameter at m:Proposals for closing projects/Archive, so I'll add that. This page can stay for general description, how to import, ... SPQRobin 16:41, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] How to export and import
(needs an update)
- This is a version of m:Help:Export and m:Help:Import, especially for the Incubator process.
- Go on the local wiki to Special:Allpages (Note: It is not needed to register)
- Copy the page names of all pages in the
(main),talk,categoryandcategory_talknamespace into a text editor - Remove pages that are not needed to be exported, like "Template:Babel", "Template:Delete", etc. because they exist yet on Incubator or are useless for it.
- Put all page names on separate lines.
- Copy them to the field at Special:Export, as explained on that page.
- Uncheck "Include only the current revision, not the full history" and check "Include templates".
- Click on "export".
- Save that file on your computer.
- Edit the file: add prefixes etc.
- Go on Incubator to Special:Import. Search your computer for the XML file, then upload it.
- Change the status on this page.
- Go to the page at Meta and state the project has been moved to Incubator.
- Add this to Template:Tests (Edit)
- You have finished!
