Subject: Recreate deleted page
Original description:
I searched and found closed and open bugs on recreating deleted pages, but I think I can put it differently than others:

I \*want\* to use pagefromfile to upload a large amount of text that a user upload badly by hand.  Those pages have been deleted and would be much better created en masse by the bot.  I understand why most people would not want their bots creating previously deleted pages, but it should be an option.  Even if I had to hit "Y" every time like I do with deletes, it should be possible.

I tried removing the pertaining objections in wikipedia.py, but the layout on editing a previously deleted page is too different.

This should be an easy error to recreate.

Works for me.
Is this still a problem?
