Revision as of 00:54, 4 July 2020

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 this section if you want to move a request from Uncontroversial to Contested.

Uncontroversial technical requests

  • WJJL  WEBR (move · discuss) – Change in call letters Editstation1 (talk) 00:31, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]


– Fixing curly apostrophes (or quote marks) per the MOS. There are 1143 pages with these or with back-ticks, some of which will be moved-blocked. so I'll be adding more. Note -- for Wallaces Farmer, a check of the refs shows the apostrophe was dropped in 1959. — kwami (talk) 00:09, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Kwamikagami: I think you might want to review the first request as I think it could be a little controversial. Number 57 00:14, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Also, please use {{subst:RMassist| current page title | new page title | reason = reason for move}} in the future, it will make it easier for those processing your requests. --Mdaniels5757 (talk) 00:19, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, I see you've started a RM discussion for some of these--what's happening? --Mdaniels5757 (talk) 00:21, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Why should it be controversial? We don't use curly apostrophies on WP. -- ah, another template screw-up.

I did use the template, but it was rejected. I had to paste in into the talk page and then manually copy it here. Something's wrong either with how the template is processed or with the instructions.

I started RM's on some of the pages and then when I saw there were going to be a number of them, I decided to consolidate them here. I hadn't had a chance to delete the RM's yet. — kwami (talk) 00:25, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
