Latest revision as of 20:35, 9 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.

Technical requests

[edit]

Uncontroversial technical requests

[edit]


In the Talk page discussion, there appears to be consensus that the main "Minnesota Fats" namespace should go to Mr. Wanderone, and I agree. However there is not so much consensus on what to do with the remaining redirects to the fictional character and whether there should be a DAB page. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 15:01, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The discussion has been closed. If you believe it was closed improperly, then WP:MRV is the next step. In the meantime, this is indeed uncontroversial and should be carried out. 162 etc. (talk) 20:33, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Quetzal1964 The article states that Eonemachilus is a former designation. Bensci54 (talk) 17:11, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
See https://researcharchive.calacademy.org/research/ichthyology/catalog/fishcatmain.asp Wikipedia:WikiProject Fishes uses Eschmeyer's Catalog of Fishes for its taxonomy below the level of order. SeeWikipedia:WikiProject Fishes#Taxonomy Quetzal1964 (talk) 17:39, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Bensci54 See also the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Fishes#Retry proposal to change the Taxonomy used by Wikiproject:Fishes. This issue has been discussed. Quetzal1964 (talk) 11:37, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Bensci54 and BarrelProof, do you still object to these moves? They appear to be backed by recent consensus at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Fishes#Retry_proposal_to_change_the_Taxonomy_used_by_Wikiproject:Fishes that I wasn't aware of. C F A 16:11, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I asked a skeptical question, but I did not object (and I did not move this to the contested category). —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 01:38, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Should Võro language also be moved? Skarmory (talk • contribs) 13:05, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is already an RM for Võro language. Meanwhile, Mulgi dialect had a {{db-move}} declined, saying that it may be potentially controversial – such that an RM should be opened (a discussion, that is; not a technical request). If someone declines a bold move, the next step shouldn't be to ask again here, but rather to open an RM discussion. @Kwamikagami: You can open an RM by clicking "discuss" on your request.

The sources seem to call it "Lakshmi Niwas." Do you have a source supporting this change? '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 13:10, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, It can be written in both spellings as 'Lakshmi' or 'Laxmi' too, so you can change it to any one of the spelling. 2409:40C0:7A:8ACD:8000:0:0:0 (talk) 15:26, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Closed Limelike Curves Doesn't seem to be universal, there are other articles such as Parliamentary republic, Assembly-independent republic, Parliamentary republic with an executive president. Recommend full RM. Raladic (talk) 21:26, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Intrisit WP:NCBC says to use the country alone for disambiguation only when "all of the articles with the same base name will be of the same type". --Ahecht (TALK
