Poll: Merge pade.add and page.edit

Getting rid of redundant code

Administrators Thanked: 263 times	Now that page management is unified underneath, the functionality of page.add and page.edit is almost identical. Therefore they can be merged to reduce code duplication. Pros: Maintain just page.edit.tpl instead of page.add.tpl and page.edit.tpl. Reduces code redundancy. Cons: If you need different sets of fields for adding and editing a page, you need to use IFs in the template or still make 2 different templates for add and edit. What do you think? May the Source be with you!
