I’m fine with MCR2.A too for now. I think I’d have preferred a wizard approach with several steps. Rationale: - less items visible on each screen. I find it a bit overwhelming to try to cram everything on one screen - more space to add future refactoring options
Thus I’d have liked to use a wizard approach similar to what we do for the Distribution Wizard or the Create Wiki wizard. For example have one step for viewing all affected pages when deleting or all page that will have their parents modified, etc. Also note that a nice option (while waiting for the alias solution, see http://markmail.org/message/d34smnyap5y6l24c) would be to have a checkbox to leave a redirect when Renaming or Moving wiki pages. If this is selected we would put a $response.sendRedirect(…) call as in http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Redirect (this could be done later on ofc but it’s also not very complex to do and would provide a nice feature that is asked by xwiki users).

So it seems MCR 2.A is the favorite choice in the community. Thanks, 2015-08-18 18:01 GMT+02:00 Marius Dumitru Florea < [email protected]>: > Hi Caty, > > I feel the create UI has too many options.
