Merged pathway still on new site

Compare:

• https://www.wikipathways.org/index.php/Pathway:WP3963 [deleted after merge; Sept 2022]
• https://new.wikipathways.org/pathways/WP3963.html

The interesting thing here, is that WP3963 actually is cited in literature at least twice. How will we handle this?

Interesting case. I reviewed the deletion log. It was deleted for effectively being merged with https://new.wikipathways.org/pathways/WP4190. But it's clearly still distinct in terms of scope, so I restored it and marked it as approved.

WP3963 still exists in both wp-db and the jekyll site, so I think this won't have much affect (maybe a minor gpml-triggered update at most).

Resolved?

Disclaimer: I'm not suggesting that this should always be the solution. Future cases of deleting approved and cited pathways should be handled case-by-case.

@AlexanderPico, @mkutmon, the now undeleted pathway was actually also cited by literature. How will we handle that in the future? Should we have a separate category for that? Something like Historic?
