In connection with this thread http://groups.drupal.org/node/27046 I would like to have the western australia group unpublished and have its content & users migrated/copied to the main Australia group.

Comment #1
lyricnz commentedI have deleted the group, and migrated all posts+membership to the "Australia" group.
Comment #2
juan_g commentedI think there should be a redirection from http://groups.drupal.org/western-australia to http://groups.drupal.org/australia in order to prevent broken links. This has been done before, when deleting other groups.
Comment #3
acMakes sense... altering status and title
Comment #4
lyricnz commentedI don't have access to create arbitrary path aliases (and didn't see an option to this during the deletion), so as an interim solution, I added a path alias /western-australia to the thread that discusses this move. See http://groups.drupal.org/western-australia
A real gdo admin can probably apply a better fix.
Comment #5
gregglesThat solution seems good to me to let people know what happened to the old group. I could create a redirect if that's what folks prefer.
Comment #6
acGreggles if you could make a redirect I think that would be better. Theoretically the group is only going to grow so having people read a post about closing the group (WA) is probably not ideal long term.
Comment #7
gregglesSure thing.
