MoveToDraft (source) – A script that is used to WP:DRAFTIFY articles (move to draft space), including cleanup and author notification.
Steps performed by the script:
- Move the current page to draftspace and, if the user isn't an admin or page mover, then tag the redirect left behind for R2 speedy deletion.
- Check if any files used are non-free.
- Edit page to comment out non-free files, put categories in {{Draft categories}}, and add the {{AFC draft}} template.
- Add a notification message on the author's/significant contributors' talk page/s.
- Update talk page banners.
- Log the move to the /Draftify log subpage of the user's space, if it exists.
Installation
editAutomatic
edit- Step 1: Check the checkbox at Preferences → Gadgets → Advanced → Install scripts without having to manually edit JavaScript files (documentation) and click Save.
- Step 2: Click the big blue "Install" button in the infobox on the right of this page.
Manual
edit- Add the following to Special:MyPage/common.js (or your skin-specific js, if you prefer):
{{subst:iusc|User:MPGuy2824/MoveToDraft.js}}
Usage
edit- On articles, there will be an additional "Move to draft" menu option next to the regular "Move" option. In Vector skin, this is within the "More" dropdown menu.
Choosing the contributors to send the notification to - Next, a dialogue box is shown where the new draft title, the username of the author to notify, and a set of checkboxes to indicate the problem/s with the current version of the article can be chosen.

- Note: for those without the page mover user-right, the redirect left behind from moving the article to draftspace will be tagged for CSD R2 deletion automatically.
Warnings
editThe script warns the user in certain conditions:
- Previous draftification of the article
- Old article (created more than 90 days ago)
- New article (significant edit/s less than 1 hour ago)
Draftify log
editThis script adds a pseudo-special page for viewing logs of draftifications – all draftifications, not just from this tool.
Once installed, you can navigate to Special:Draftify log and view logs from all users, or a particular user.
For convenience, a "Draftify log" link is placed on user pages (near the "Move to draft" menu option), linking to that user's log.
A wikitext version of the log is generated in a textbox at the bottom of the page, for easy copy-pasting if desired.
Todos
edit- Switch UI to Vue.js
Changes after forking
editThis script was forked from User:Evad37/MoveToDraft, in November 2022. After forking, the following enhancements have been done:
- A selectable, short list of reasons for draftifying, which are added in the message to the draft creator's talk page.
- Warning when the article is very old (>90 days) OR very new (edited less than an hour back).
- Warning when an article has been previously draftified.
- Allow notifying multiple authors (when applicable).
- Fixed bug where, on occassion, the article XYZ would be moved to Draft:Draft:XYZ.
- Workaround for phab:T321192.
- Draftification log entries and edits are tagged with "moveToDraft".
Customisation
edit- Watching pages: If you want to watchlist the pages that you move, then check the checkbox at Preferences → Watchlist → Watched pages → ⧼Add pages and files I move to my watchlist⧽ and click Save.
- Subscribing to user talk page discussions: If you want to auto-subscribe to user talk page discussion, then check the checkbox at Preferences → Editing → Discussion pages → ⧼Enable topic subscription⧽ and click Save.
- "Move to draft" link placement: Add the line
var m2d_portlet = "
to your common.js, replacingportletID
";portletID
with one of the portlet id values from Help:Customizing toolbars (the script's default location isp-cactions
) - Move log rationale: Add the line
var m2d_rationale = "
to your common.js, replacingrationale
";rationale
with custom text. The default rationale is [[WP:DRAFTIFY|Not ready]] for mainspace, incubate in draftspace - Edit summary for preparing article for draftspace: Add the line
var m2d_editsummary = "
to your common.js, replacingeditSummary
";editSummary
with custom text. The default rationale is [[WP:AFC|AFC]] draft - Disable logging within your userspace: Add the line
var m2d_doNotLog =
to your common.js to disable logging moves (in /Draftify log within your userspace). Logging is enabled if this is omitted or set to false.true
; - Contributor notification message
- Use with caution, and only if you are sure what you're doing:
- Add the line
var m2d_notification = "
to your common.jsYour message here
"; - Important: within your message:
- You need to use
$1
instead of the page title - You need to prevent wikitext transformations on the common.js page itself (i.e.
\~~\~~
instead of~~~~
,\{\{subst:
instead of{{subst:
for any template substitution) - You need to escape any quotation marks (
"
characters) as\"
to avoid syntax errors. - Any actual backslashes (
\
characters) need to be escaped as\\
.
- You need to use
- Location of your log file: You can change the location of the
Draftify_log
file by creating a redirect fromUser:Username/Draftify_log
to whatever location you prefer (as long as it is within your userspace).
