MergeHistory isn't reviewed by Brion, see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Review_queue#Requests

Closing this bug as LATER.

Broadbeer: can you please update on the status of this request?

It is still valid, though it is 3½ years old. I didn't participate in the vote, I only created the bug. :)

Moving old LATER bugs to appropriate resolutions.

What is supposed to be enabled here?

Consensus is old, assigning to self since the request is straight forward, will poke the community to see if this is what they still want.

Community discussion in 2009 [1] was against the practise of merging histories through the permission and the old 'delete, move, undelete' process. The community so far shows no consideration to change this.
