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

Job done but a query remains
  • Talk:2020 United States election protests/Archives 1 is invalid. Must create Talk:2020 United States election protests/Archives 1 before requesting that it be moved to Talk:2020 United States election protests/Archive 1.– Bot User:ClueBot III seems to have mistakenly created a new archive called "Talk:2020 United States election protests/Archives/2020/November" as the first archive for a talk page. The problem is that the name does not appear to be a standard archive name and was not showing up on the talk page. My attempt to fix it failed on at least one account for not removing the "s" from the word "Archives" while moving and now I cannot move the article onto an existing article, likely due to moving in the wrong order or something of the sort. Thus, I would like to request this move to fix the main archive issues. (There are two redirect that also need to be deleted after the move, which would fix most or all of the rest.)
