Permanently stationary revisions vs. moving and being recalled revisions
Under the "permanently stationary" system, any revisions made on LocalWiki stay at that page ID, page title, and page namespace until they are moved, undeleted, etc. on Wikipedia. Under the "moving and being recalled" system, once a page is deleted on RemoteWiki, those revisions fall under LocalWiki control and can be moved about, but if the page is undeleted, the revisions are recalled to what their page ID, page title, and page namespace are on Wikipedia. MirrorTools will use the "permanently stationary" system because of a principle that is analogous to "Cool URIs don't change".

Deleting revisions when pages are mirrormoved onto them
It was decided that if the only remotely live revision is a redirect back to the page being moved onto it, to go ahead and delete that, but merge everything else.
