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:..."

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. If this is your first article and you want your draft article moved to the mainspace, please submit it for review at Articles for creation, by adding the code {{subst:submit}} to the top of the draft or user sandbox page instead of listing it here. Because you are autoconfirmed, you can move most pages yourself. Do not request technical assistance on this page if you can do it yourself. If you need help determining whether it's okay to move the page to a different title, then please follow the instructions at the top of Wikipedia:Requested moves.

• The Drive (currently a redirect to Drive) → The Drive (American football) (move) – Fairly extreme case of WP:ASTONISH. Generic nickname that could be given to almost anything in many contexts. Current title should redirect to Drive. HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 12:38, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I suspect that this one will generate some discussion over how to handle the proposed new title, but I will throw in my agreement with the request. I once saw a rock band called "The Drive" too (I think their demise was caused by their un-Google-able name[1]), and the phrase is simply way too generic. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:09, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @HumanBodyPiloter5, is there anything preventing you from making this move yourself? Dr. Vogel (talk) 13:10, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Just go ahead and do it. The Fumble should have (Cleveland Browns) added. In ictu oculi (talk) 19:45, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Cias94 Is this reflected in independant sources as per WP:COMMONNAME? -Kj cheetham (talk) 09:36, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    @Kj cheetham while there is no official independent sources I know the person is in the midst of the name change. Several sources such as RSA films, Black dog films, and RSA photographic have already changed her name to the new artist name. Cias94 (talk) 17:59, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    I think it might be a bit too early to move this, but feel free to open a WP:RM by pressing the "discuss" link on here. -Kj cheetham (talk) 18:13, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
