            Bug ID: 45823
           Summary: Transwiki importing gives no warning about an existing
                    page title
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General/Unknown

When using Special:Import to do a transwiki import (e.g., from
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Import>), if the destination title
already exists, the revisions will just be "merged" (dumped) onto the same
title, without warning the user. This is pretty awful. I couldn't find a bug
that was tracking this issue.

Somewhat related to bug 6808.
