Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shortcuts

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]
Edit this section if you want to move a request between sections.

Uncontroversial technical requests

[edit]
Most requests should be placed below this heading.

Requests to revert undiscussed moves

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

Contested technical requests

[edit]
Do not insert new requests in this section. Only move requests here if the requested move has been contested.
@ACTfootyhistory: Seems like the content in it makes this title stable. Unless you start an RM by clicking/tapping on the "discuss" link, this request stays here. Intrisit (talk) 11:46, 4 September 2024‎ (UTC)[reply]
@Songwaters Current arrangement is fine considering WP:RECENTISM. – robertsky (talk) 00:56, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No primary topic. Such moves are never uncontroversial. 162 etc. (talk) 19:06, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Officialworks "Braathens Regional Aviation" appears to be the common name. C F A 💬 23:40, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No clear common name. You can start a requested move discussion by clicking the "discuss" link above. C F A 💬 13:55, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Commonname. @Fgnievinski: I'm also pretty reluctant to use abbreviations as article titles when they're both obscure and there's a better choice so closely available. Andy Dingley (talk) 18:22, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
XSD is XML Schema Definition, and the formal title seems to be "W3C XML Schema Definition Language (XSD)". One of those might be a better title. Getting rid of the "(W3C)" in parentheses seems desirable. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 23:53, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep it at the current location, with the necessary (W3C) disambiguator. We already have XML schema as a separate article on the generic topic of schemas for XML, thus this article does need to keep the W3C disambiguator on it. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:56, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Administrator needed

[edit]
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.
