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

Most requests should be placed below this heading.

• Irregular sleep–wake rhythm (currently a redirect to Irregular sleep–wake rhythm disorder) → Irregular sleep–wake rhythm disorder (move · discuss) – Full name as used on page Iztwoz (talk) 11:35, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

• Gallo (footballer) (currently a redirect to Galo (footballer)) → Galo (footballer) (move · discuss) – Name is misspelled as sources indicate. Robby.is.on (talk) 10:16, 27 September 2023 (UTC)
• Nephrotheca (currently a redirect to Osteospermum) → Osteospermum ilicifolium (move · discuss) – accepted species name [1], [2]; formerly the sole species in genus Nepthrotheca Tom Radulovich (talk) 02:55, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

• Aminah (currently a redirect to Amina) → Amina (move · discuss) – Aminah and Amina are both correct transliterations of the Arabic name per the guidelines here though it is more common on Wikipedia to drop the 'h' in similar cases, e.g., Saqifa (instead of Saqifah), Fatima (instead of Fatima), Ibn Taymiyya (instead of Ibn Taymiyya). Amina also seems to be a more common transliteration in reliable sources, e.g., the works of W. Montgomery Watt, Wilferd Madelung, Daniel C. Peterson and others. Teklobus (talk) 23:58, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
• Shamanur Mallikarjun (currently a redirect to S. S. Mallikarjun) → S. S. Mallikarjun (move · discuss) – S. S. Mallikarjun is his official and popular name Vijethnbharadwaj (talk) 18:35, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

• Lee Myung-woo (currently a redirect to Lee Myoungwoo) → Lee Myoungwoo (move · discuss) – I work with the management company of the director. His name is misspelled, it should be "Myoungwoo," same as his IMDB database profile https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4955171/ Spacecatbat (talk) 21:59, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
• Mega Man X DiVE (currently a redirect to Mega Man X Dive) → Mega Man X Dive (move · discuss) – It was written in caps but that's not how we do it in Wikipedia Tintor2 (talk) 22:22, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

Requests to revert undiscussed moves

If your request involves reverting a move, place it here.

Contested technical requests

Do not insert new requests in this section. Only move requests here if the requested move has been contested.

• CollegeHumor → CH Media (move · discuss) – CH Media has annouced they will stop doing business as CollegeHumor and will stick only to the Dropout brand.[5] Therefore it makes more sense for the page about the parent company to use the parent company's name. //Talya - My contributions - Let's talk// 17:54, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

The article as it reads today focuses almost entirely on CollegeHumor.com, not the media company that owns it. No evidence that CH Media is itself notable. 162 etc. (talk) 18:50, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

• DMOZ → Curlie (currently a redirect back to DMOZ) (move · discuss) – The website is now named Curlie. Fourmidable (talk) 10:46, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

The entire article, save a sentence or two, is about the history of DMOZ. No evidence that Curlie is itself notable. The current primary redirect works fine. 162 etc. (talk) 17:14, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

Plus the repeated discussion on the talk page, this is clearly not uncontroversial. -Kj cheetham (talk) 18:52, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

Administrator needed

Edit this section only if your request requires an administrator. Usually, do so if the page has been fully protected or move protected (see this guide to which moves need administrators). Place your request in another section if it only requires a page mover.

• 2023 Nagorno-Karabakh clashes (currently a redirect to 2023 Azerbaijani offensive in Nagorno-Karabakh) → 2023 Azerbaijani offensive in Nagorno-Karabakh (move · discuss) – Closed the RM, but the page is move-protected. No such user (talk) 11:29, 27 September 2023 (UTC)
