- Language: de:Henry Ormond
- New name: User:Reinhard Dietrich/Construction Site 1
- Note: Preparing for an edit in WP:en -- Reinhard Dietrich (talk) 07:38, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
- Note by importing user: @Reinhard Dietrich: Not done; we already have an English Wikipedia article about him. Please just copy the text with appropriate attribution. Graham87 (talk) 14:50, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
Import of de:Immunic Therapeutics to User:Breuchen
- Language: de:Immunic Therapeutics
- New name: User:Breuchen
- Note: — Preceding unsigned comment added by Breuchen (talk • contribs) 11:24, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
- Note by importing user: Not done; you don't have much experience on any Wikipedia and you appear to have a conflict of interest regarding this topic; you created the relatively extensive German Wikipedia article about it. Graham87 (talk) 14:36, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
Import of commons:Template:PD-Somalia to Template:PD-Somalia
- Language: commons:Template:PD-Somalia
- New name: Template:PD-Somalia
- Note: We currently lack a Somalia PD template, as far as I can tell. But I do think that this one would be useful on the English Wikipedia for edge cases like those in the discussion at Wikipedia:Files_for_discussion/2024_November_25#File:Mogadishu_in_2017.jpg. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 22:06, 5 December 2024 (UTC)
- Note by importing user: This template was previously deleted at TfD: Wikipedia:Templates_for_discussion/Log/2017_February_2#Template:PD-Somalia. It would probably be better to undelete rather than import if something needs to be done here, but is there some reason that file can't be at Commons? * Pppery * it has begun... 22:35, 5 December 2024 (UTC)
- That is a good question. I think that the c:COM:PRP might not love the piecewise rationale for keeping, but it makes sense enwiki-wise. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 04:34, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
- Agree, seems better to just undelete the template locally than import. I imagine it would be useful for any cases where Commons doesn't want it there, but we want to use it on enwiki, especially given Somalia apparently
has no existing enforceable copyright law
according to the template, so there's likely at least a non-zero chance that an image could run afoul of Commons' PRP, but still be just fine here. EggRoll97 (talk) 08:15, 6 December 2024 (UTC) 
Not done there really is no need to transwiki such a meta-template. — xaosflux Talk 01:50, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
Import of de:Wisdom of Happiness to User:sabenico/WISDOM OF HAPPINESS – a heart-to-heart with the Dalai Lama
- Language: de:Wisdom of Happiness
- New name: User:sabenico/WISDOM OF HAPPINESS – a heart-to-heart with the Dalai Lama
- Note: --Sabenico (talk) 19:50, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
- Note by importing user: Not done; you don't have much experience on any Wikipedia addition and you've heavily edited the German article, indicating that you might have a conflict of interest relating to this subject. Graham87 (talk) 01:29, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- Hello there
- Yes, I've set up the German page for this movie. I think this is a good basis for the English page and a friend of mine (US-native) is doing the translation of the text. It's one of my favorite movies and this is my way to contribute to it. Sabenico (talk) 12:36, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- How did you come to find out about it? Do you have a personal connection with any of the cast, crew, etc.? Your friend should create an account of their own and contribute the translation themselves, for proper attribution. Graham87 (talk) 13:34, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
Import of fi:Aili_Ikonen to Aili_Ikonen
- Language: fi:Aili_Ikonen
- New name: Aili_Ikonen
- Note: interpretation and shortening of the finnish article--Stetigbessermachen (talk) 19:49, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
- Note by importing user:
Done, to Draft:Aili Ikonen, just because the page had already been created. Graham87 (talk) 06:04, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
Import of de.wikipedia.org:Benutzer:Ghst kommunikation/Hertie Foundation to Hertie Foundation
- Language: de.wikipedia.org:Benutzer:Ghst kommunikation/Hertie Foundation
- New name: Hertie Foundation
- Note: We are the communications team of the Hertie Foundation and would like to have an English Wikipedia page about the foundation. There is already a Wikipedia page about the Hertie Foundation on the German Wikipedia (Hertie-Stiftung). We used a sandbox in the German Wikipedia to create the English article about the foundation and would like to ask you to import it into the English Wikipedia. Thank you very much. If there is anything else we should do, please contact us.. --Ghst kommunikation (talk) 12:34, 24 January 2025 (UTC)
- Note by importing user: Not done; you have a self-admitted extreme conflict of interest. Also, you've admitted to having a shared account and your username represents an organisation, both of which are extremely problematic on the English Wikipedia. Graham87 (talk) 14:29, 24 January 2025 (UTC)
- Checking more closely, your username represents the communications team at your organisation rather than your organisation itself, which is still implying shared use and is not allowed here. As I found out later and noted on your talk page, you'd already submitted a similar request that was declined. You're skating on incredibly thin ice here. Graham87 (talk) 14:53, 24 January 2025 (UTC)
Import of de:Maō ni Natta no de, Dungeon Tsukutte Jingai Musume to Honobono Suru to Now I'm a Demon Lord!

- Note: --Vrnsthff25 (talk) 10:38, 29 January 2025 (UTC)

Import of de:Leif_Möller_(Basketballspieler) to Leif_Alexander_Möller
- Language: de:Leif_Möller_(Basketballspieler)
- New name: Leif_Möller
- Note: --41.86.63.57 (talk) 10:19, 31 January 2025 (UTC)
- Note by importing user: Not done; we don't import untranslated articles straight in to the main namespace. For a case like this, assuming that the first heading in this edit about playing US college basketball is a hard fact and not idle speculation, I'd prefer certification by, say, WikiProject College basketball before continuing. It's quite curious that an IP from the Seychelles is showing an interest in this topic. Graham87 (talk) 14:45, 31 January 2025 (UTC)
- Language: de:Kenda Hmeidan
- New name: Kenda Hmeidan -- or preferably: User:Baekemm/Kenda Hmeidan (prior to translation)

Import of de:Bulldog Racing to User:Maexxem/Bulldog Racing
- Language: de:Bulldog Racing
- New name: Maexxem/Bulldog Racing
- Note: Request for translationMaexxem (talk) 11:36, 18 February 2025 (UTC)
- Note by importing user: Not done, for several reasons. You have little experience on any Wikipedia addition so you probably have a conflict of interest. Furthermore, you created the article in one fell swoop, adding to my conflict of interest-related impressions. Lastly, and most importantly, the article is up for deletion on the German Wikipedia; if a community member there has felt the need to nominate it for deletion, we shouldn't have the article either. Graham87 (talk) 14:36, 18 February 2025 (UTC)
Import of de.wikipedia.org:Benutzer:Eilhart_von_Oberg/Stein_prison_massacre to Stein prison massacre
- Language: de.wikipedia.org:Benutzer:Eilhart_von_Oberg/Stein_prison_massacre
- New name: Stein prison massacre
- Note: Thanks for importing my version in the English language wikipedia.--Eilhart von Oberg (talk) 10:54, 19 February 2025 (UTC)
- Note by importing user: Not done; importation is for attribution of original-language content before translation, not for creating an article. Honestly, you should've written English content on the English Wikipedia. We'd need to import de:Massaker im Zuchthaus Stein and then import de:Benutzer:Eilhart von Oberg/Stein prison massacre to the same place. The problem is this edit to the former page; is it relevant to the translation? The English translation needs some work before it's ready for the article namespace and needs some thought on how it'd be integrated in to the English Wikipedia. If someone else here wants to help or take over, feel free. Graham87 (talk) 15:03, 19 February 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks for the feedback. The edits on the site de:Massaker im Zuchthaus Stein are of no relevance for the translation as they are just minor ones. But did I get your recommendation right, to better copy the English content from my German user space to the English sandbox in order to proceed it right? Eilhart von Oberg (talk) 16:22, 19 February 2025 (UTC)
- @Eilhart von Oberg: Yes, that's correct. Graham87 (talk) 00:15, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

- Note: I want to create an English speaking Wiki page for the german based company Blickle Wheels and Castors. As it is an international acting company which is operating all over the world an English page should be relevant. Blickle1953 (talk) 14:18, 24 February 2025 (UTC)
- Note by importing user: Not done. You haven't had much experience editing any Wikipedia addition and you have a clear conflict of interest about the article subject per your username. Graham87 (talk) 14:08, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
- Note: I want to create an English speaking Wiki page for the german based company Blickle Wheels and Castors. As it is an international acting company which is operating all over the world an English page should be relevant. Blickle1953 (talk) 14:18, 24 February 2025 (UTC)
- Well you can't, because of your conflict of interest. If it's truly notable enough for the English Wikipedia, someone will create an article about it eventually. Graham87 (talk) 03:57, 25 February 2025 (UTC)

- Hi sorry, it was an mistake by me. I did not intent to create another import request. This request can be closed. I replied in the request above.
- Note: I want to create an English speaking Wiki page for the german based company Blickle Wheels and Castors. As it is an international acting company which is operating all over the world an English page should be relevant. Blickle1953 (talk) 14:19, 24 February 2025 (UTC)
- The same reasoning applies, and I agree with Graham's reasoning for denying your above request. Your username shows you have a clear conflict of interest. As seen at our conflict of interest policy, you may submit an article through the Articles for Creation process for review. Please review that policy for further details.

- Note: --Cartoffel (talk) 10:55, 8 March 2025 (UTC)
- Note by importing user: Not done, because of the overlapping redirect history, which among other things contains the only direct evidence of this page move that was carried out before the advent of the move log when Wikipedia was upgraded to MediaWiki 1.5. I have provided this edit summary to make the source of the text 100% clear, and if you like you can put {{translated page}} on the talk page. Graham87 (talk) 14:27, 8 March 2025 (UTC)

- Note: --Mr.Lovecraft (talk) 13:48, 20 March 2025 (UTC)
- Note by importing user: Not done; the importation process times out Wikipedia's servers. While there are ways around this, I don't want to use them in this case because importation of translated articles is not a standard or generally necessary procedure here. Not to mention that there are 715 revisions (at time of writing), far more than we would usually import at once here. Graham87 (talk) 15:11, 20 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Graham87 So there will be no import at all ? Mr.Lovecraft (talk) 16:43, 24 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Mr.Lovecraft: Nope, sorry. Unless someone else who does imports here is much more keen on the importing being done in this case than I am. (And it'd require an importuploader to do it in a way that's as un-terrible as possible). Graham87 (talk) 16:58, 24 March 2025 (UTC)
- Not an importuploader, though I'm fairly more keen on importing pages to userspace for translation than others usually are (my view is that importing should not be considered an unusual procedure, and it should be fairly normalized). That said, in this case I can't see any way an import would end up being done cleanly here. EggRoll97 (talk) 22:36, 25 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Mr.Lovecraft, if your intention in requesting this import is to translate the article, you are able to use the content translation tool. There is an option to output the result to a user or draft page. Reconrabbit 18:44, 24 March 2025 (UTC)
