Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests

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: 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.

Uncontroversial technical requests

• Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game (currently a redirect to Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game) → Middle-earth Strategy Battle Game (move · discuss) – Canonical form of name. Hlingler (talk) 03:37, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
• China Social Sciences Publishing House (currently a redirect to China Social Sciences Press) → China Social Sciences Press (move · discuss) – move over redirect of self-identified name fgnievinski (talk) 03:16, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
• Template:Association football club rivalries in Europe → Template:European club football rivalries (move · discuss) – To aid search, make navbox page name match its title. Within Europe, "football" (with variations in spelling in many languages) primarily means association football (soccer), so "association" is redundant. 85.238.91.38 (talk) 03:01, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
• Bhutan War (currently a redirect to Duar War) → Duar War (move · discuss) – per COMMONNAME. Most sources describe it as Duar War and not Bhutan War. TryKid ^{[dubious – discuss]} 01:12, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

Contested technical requests

• John C. Stennis → John Stennis (currently a redirect back to John C. Stennis) (move · discuss) – WP:COMMONNAME and WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. During his career, most media reports prominently omitted the middle initial in headlines or leads (examples: 1973 Associated Press, 1984 Associated Press, 1985 Associated Press, 1995 Washington Post obituary). C-SPAN also used "John Stennis" in on-screen graphics [1]. Arbor to SJ (talk) 02:16, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
