We haven't deleted it because, frankly, I was waiting for someone to move it to a subpage of a to-be-created [[CZ:En français]] page. --[[User:Larry Sanger|Larry Sanger]] 14:15, 20 September 2007 (CDT)

Quick question, why do we have a French version of the Direct 8 article? Chris Day (talk) 13:43, 20 September 2007 (CDT)

I think we could use it as a test case for integrating non-English contents. One option to do this would be to put it into a /French subpage but since this is not backed by current policy, I just copied the French page into Direct 8/Addendum. --Daniel Mietchen 12:28, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Another year on... :) Now it's in a subpage of Direct 8, is there any reason not to delete this article? John Stephenson 04:50, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

Don't see any. Will tag it now. --Daniel Mietchen 07:21, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
Since this is the original page with the history on it, it should not be deleted but replace the copy at Direct 8/Addendum (or be merged with it). Moreover, to clean up, the subpages and the metadata will have to be deleted, too.

Then this talk page should be moved to an Archive of Direct 8. (I would do this, but first the Addendum has to be deleted or merged.) --Peter Schmitt 09:46, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

Articles merged

Hopefully, I've merged the histories and resulted in the correct versions of each subpage. The French version is still in the Addendum subpage. D. Matt Innis 18:11, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. The /Addendum now has its history. You could have spared the trouble to merge the /Related Articles and /Bibliography subpages, I think. But that does not matter. --Peter Schmitt 23:12, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
