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.

Uncontroversial technical requests
- Matt Leto → Zyos (currently a redirect back to Matt Leto) (move · discuss) – Per WP:COMMONNAME; follows suit with nearly all esports player article titles. – Pbrks (t • c) 18:59, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
- Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office (Florida) (currently a redirect to Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office) → Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office (move · discuss) – No reason to specify that it's in Florida when there aren't any others with this name ArcticSeeress (talk) 20:47, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

Contested technical requests
- I. Jordan → I. JORDAN (move · discuss) – they stylise their name as all caps, I. JORDAN - thanks! Tom Lea (talk) 20:55, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose per MOS:ALLCAPS. 162 etc. (talk) 21:50, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
- Not only that, but sources regularly write the initial out in full as well (as "India Jordan"). — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 22:03, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose per MOS:ALLCAPS. 162 etc. (talk) 21:50, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
- Rok-C (currently a redirect to Roxanne Perez) → Roxanne Perez (move · discuss) – Rok-C's new ring name at WWE is Roxanne Perez, as she wrestled under that name on TV ever since joining the company. SeosiWrestling (talk) 14:39, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
- Is this the new WP:COMMONNAME if only changed in April (as per https://www.pwinsider.com/ViewArticle.php?id=157905)? -Kj cheetham (talk) 14:41, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
- Special operations → Special Operations (currently a redirect back to Special operations) (move · discuss) – Capitalization of the article's title. The move cannot be done by me as there is already a redirect article of that name KeepItGoingForward (talk) 03:31, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
- Why should it be capitalized? -Kj cheetham (talk) 09:43, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
- KQRY-LD → KFFS-CD (currently a redirect back to KQRY-LD) (move · discuss) – KFFS-CD Fayetteville is the main station, per RabbitEars Mvcg66b3r (talk) 03:07, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
- Just querying this because I don't understand the rationale. Currently KFFS-CD redirects to KFDF-CD, but that page was extensively changed today to remove any mention of KFFS-CD. Is this a different channel that should actually merit a page move rather than the above refactoring? — Amakuru (talk) 16:22, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
