More recently, some users on enwiki have been subverting new page patrol by
taking articles submitted at Articles for Creation which were declined (not
accepted for publishing in mainspace), and moving them into mainspace anyway.
One user has proposed move-protecting these pages to avoid the problem (see
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Articles_for_creation#Arbitrary_section_break),
but clearly moves from user sandboxes, Wikiproject drafts in project space,
etc. are just as dangerous in their potential for avoiding scrutiny. This
proposed feature is the right way to deal with the problem.

In my opinion the way this feature should work is, when viewing new pages in
any particular namespace, it should include moves into that namespace from
other namespaces (since they are "new" to that namespace). Newpages over all
namespaces should work the same as it does now. This would help it to be more
generally useful. This could be made a checkbox option, if there is some reason
this behavior is not always desirable.
