Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests
Appearance
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:..."
If you are here because you want an admin to approve of your new article or your proposed page move, you are in the wrong place.

- To list a technical request: Uncontroversial technical requests subsection and insert the following code at the bottom of the list, filling in pages and reason:
This will automatically insert a bullet and include your signature. Please do not edit the article's talk page.
{{subst:RMassist|current page title|new title|reason=edit summary for the move}}
the - 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 this section if you want to move a request from Uncontroversial to Contested.
Uncontroversial technical requests
- Chignal St James (currently a redirect to Chignall St James) → Chignall St James (move · discuss) – Per the Ordnance Survey and slightly more sources as well as consistent with Chignall and Chignall Smealy. Crouch, Swale (talk) 11:38, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
Administrator needed
- Edit this section if a request requires an administrator (see this guide to which moves need administrators). Place the request in another section if it only requires a page mover's permissions.
Contested technical requests
- What a Diff'rence a Day Made (currently a redirect to What a Diff'rence a Day Makes) → What a Diff'rence a Day Makes (move · discuss) – error in title, correct name redirects to album currently Hekerui (talk) 17:37, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Hekerui: Probably needs a full RM. According to these recording listings the original English title was as listed, and three out of the five listings still used this title. Someone may want to retarget the album redirect to the song page, though. -2pou (talk) 17:47, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
Requests to revert undiscussed moves
- Cathedral of Holy Wisdom, Novgorod (currently a redirect to Cathedral of Saint Sophia, Novgorod) → Cathedral of St. Sophia, Novgorod (currently a redirect instead to Cathedral of Saint Sophia, Novgorod) (move · discuss) – St Sophia cathedral is the common name, the page has been moved without a discussion (see talk) Alaexis¿question? 14:47, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
- Onoğurs (currently a redirect to Onogurs) → Onogurs (move · discuss) – The use of the near-silent G (ğ) is a feature of modern Turkish, itself an evolution of the hard G of classical Turkic. The standard G variant is the common name used in sources, and the page was moved without discussion; see [1] and [2]. Requesting revert. DA1 (talk) 11:59, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
