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 between sections.

Uncontroversial technical requests

Most requests should be placed below this heading.

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.
  • Why is this move needed? While there is a convention to include the state in naming articles for US cities/towns -- this does not necessarily apply to the parenthetical disambiguator. Consider, for example, Category:Culture of Jersey City, New Jersey -- there are several others using only "(Jersey City)" and the same can be found for many other US cities/towns. older ≠ wiser 11:41, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Joshuabriere This request was already contested at Talk:Virginia Housing Development Authority#Requested move 4 March 2024. --Ahecht (TALK

  • Cretan School (currently a redirect to Cretan school) → Cretan school (move · discuss) – Use sentence case title. Not usually capped in sources. Not the kind of school that is a proper name. Dicklyon (talk) 19:27, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Not what appears to be the WP:COMMONNAME in the sources:
    1. Valianou, Lemonia; Wei, Shuya; Mubarak, Mohammad S.; Farmakalidis, Helen; Rosenberg, Erwin; Stassinopoulos, Stergios; Karapanagiotis, Ioannis (February 2011). "Identification of organic materials in icons of the Cretan School of iconography". Journal of Archaeological Science. 38 (2): 246–254. doi:10.1016/j.jas.2010.08.025.
    2. "Cretan School | Art UK". artuk.org.
    What sources show that the MOS:AT understanding would be correct? microbiologyMarcus [petri dish·growths] 00:59, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Book n-gram stats show that capitalization is not nearly consistent. Dicklyon (talk) 04:30, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • EcoCute (Japan) is invalid. Must create EcoCute (Japan) before requesting that it be moved to EcoCute.– I can't move this but this is an unnecessary disambiguation. Cleo Cooper (talk) 06:34, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There was a consensus to merge EcoCute to Air source heat pump. I have redirected the recreation at EcoCute (Japan) of EcoCute to that target as well. There can be a discussion on Talk:Air source heat pump about how much info should be included there (or seeking a new consensus to split it back into a separate article).

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.
