The ''[[Wikipedia:Requested moves#Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves|discussion process]]'' is used for potentially controversial moves. If any of the following apply to a desired move, treat it as potentially controversial:
* There is an existing article (not just a redirect) at the target title;
* There has been any past debate about the best title for the page;
* Someone could reasonably disagree with the move.

If a desired move is uncontroversial and technical in nature (e.g. spelling), please feel free to [[Wikipedia:Moving a page|move the page yourself]]. If the page has recently been moved without discussion, you may revert the move and initiate a discussion on its talk page. In either case, if you are unable to complete the move, request it below.

* '''To list a technical request''', go to the bottom of this section that you are reading right now; edit the subsection [[#Uncontroversial technical requests|Uncontroversial technical requests]]; insert the following code at the top:
::<code><nowiki>{{subst:RMassist|</nowiki>{{gray|''<nowiki><!--</nowiki>old page name, without brackets<nowiki>--></nowiki>''}}|{{gray|''<nowiki><!--</nowiki>requested name, without brackets<nowiki>--></nowiki>''}}|reason= {{gray|''<nowiki><!--</nowiki>reason for move<nowiki>--></nowiki>''}}}}</code>
: This will automatically insert a bullet and include your signature. Please do not edit the article's talk page.

* '''If you object to a proposal''' listed in the uncontroversial technical requests section, please move it to the [[#Contested technical requests|Contested technical requests]] section.
{{anchor|Contested}}
* '''If your technical request is contested by another editor''', please remove it from the contested technical requests section and follow the instructions at [[Wikipedia:Requested moves#Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves|Requesting potentially controversial moves]].

* Alternatively, '''if the only obstacle to an uncontroversial move is another page in the way''', you can ask for the deletion of the other page. This may apply, for example, if the other page is currently a redirect to the article to be moved, a redirect with no incoming links, or an unnecessary disambiguation page with a minor edit history. To request the other page be deleted, add the following code to the top of the page <u>that is in the wa</u>y:
:: <code><nowiki>{{db-move|</nowiki>{{gray|''<nowiki><!--</nowiki>page to be moved here<nowiki>--></nowiki>''}}|{{gray|''<nowiki><!--</nowiki>reason for move<nowiki>--></nowiki>''}}}}</code>
: This will list the undesired page for deletion under [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#G6|criterion for speedy deletion G6]]. If the page is a redirect, place the code above the redirection. For a list of articles being considered for uncontroversial speedy deletion, see [[:Category:Candidates for uncontroversial speedy deletion]].

Latest revision as of 19:49, 22 December 2024

If you are unable to complete a move for technical reasons, you can request technical help below. This is the correct method if you tried to move a page, but you got an error message saying something like "You do not have permission to move this page, for the following reasons:..." or "The/This page could not be moved, for the following reason:..."

  • To list a technical request: edit the Uncontroversial technical requests subsection and insert the following code at the bottom of the list, filling in pages and reason:
    {{subst:RMassist|current page title|new title|reason=edit summary for the move}}
    
    This will automatically insert a bullet and include your signature. Please do not edit the article's talk page.
  • If you object to a proposal listed in the uncontroversial technical requests section, please move the request to the Contested technical requests section, append a note on the request elaborating on why, and sign with ~~~~. Consider pinging the requester to let them know about the objection.
  • If your technical request is contested, or if a contested request is left untouched without reply, create a requested move on the article talk and remove the request from the section here. The fastest and easiest way is to click the "discuss" button at the request, save the talk page, and remove the entry on this page.
