Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests

The bold, revert, discuss cycle applies to uncontroversial moves (see Wikipedia:Be bold) and reverts of undiscussed moves. The discussion process is used for potentially controversial moves. If any of the following apply to a desired move, treat it as potentially controversial:

• There is an existing article (not just a redirect) at the target title
• There has been any past debate about the best title for the page
• Someone could reasonably disagree with the move.

If a desired move is uncontroversial and technical in nature (e.g. spelling and capitalization), please feel free to move the page yourself. If the page has recently been moved without discussion, you may revert the move and initiate a discussion on its talk page. In either case, if you are unable to complete/revert the move, request it below.

• To list a technical request add the following code at the top of the sub-section Uncontroversial technical requests below:

{{subst:RMassist|<!--old page name, without brackets-->|<!--requested name, without brackets-->|<!--reason for move-->}}

This will automatically insert a bullet and include your signature. Do not edit the article's talk page.

• If you object to a proposal listed in Uncontroversial technical requests, please move it to the Contested technical requests section below.

• If your technical request is contested by another editor, remove the request from the Contested technical requests section and follow the instructions at Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves.

• Alternatively, if the only obstacle to a technical move is another page in the way (e.g., a redirect to the current title of the article to be moved, a redirect with no incoming links, or an unnecessary disambiguation page with a minor edit history—if it has a single history line, see WP:MOR instead), add the following code to the top of the page that is in the way:

{{db-move|<!--page to be moved here-->|<!--reason for move-->}}

This will list the undesired page for deletion under criterion for speedy deletion G6. If the page is a redirect, place the code above the redirection. For a list of articles being considered for uncontroversial speedy deletion, see Category:Candidates for uncontroversial speedy deletion.

Contested technical requests

• Sony Alpha 77 II → Sony α77 II (move) (discuss) – Title blacklisted, but appears to be the actual name of the product. Strangely, was able to make it as a redirect, but not move it myself. *shrug*. – Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 03:42, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
