From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Mach61 (talk | contribs) at 20:58, 19 November 2024 (Adding How I Got Over.). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

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

Uncontroversial technical requests

  • How I Got Over  How I Got Over (song) (move · discuss) – Roots album has several times more page views, no PTOPIC. New title should still have a hatnote, since the album has a title track, but additional disambiguation to How I Got Over (Clara Ward song) feels unnecessary.

Requests to revert undiscussed moves

Contested technical requests

@Hariboneagle927 The sources at the page appear to use both names, so this might be contentious and require a full RM. Raladic (talk) 18:02, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Administrator needed

This may need discussion on the article's talk page. Kolano123 (talk) 17:03, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Kolano123, there was a discussion here: Talk:Israel–Hezbollah_conflict_(2023–present)#Options. Do you think this was sufficient? VR (Please ping on reply) 22:22, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Vice regent I'm just letting you know that moving it to the title you propose it to be moved to (Israel-Hezbollah conflict (2023-2024)) may need discussion on the article's talk page. Kolano123 (talk) 07:49, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Vice regent, can you open a RM discussion? This has been up for 5 days, I believe the usual admins patrolling here, including me, have seen this request and not act on it.
Personally, I think this request is in a grey area as to whether to treat it as a continuation of the previous move discussion since this section was opened mid-way then, or a new one, which was not advertised the usual way (and also it was self-closed and pushed along by yourself?). Furthermore, there is a recent edit request which runs contrary to your intention, Talk:Israel–Hezbollah_conflict_(2023–present)#Extended-confirmed-protected_edit_request_on_14_November_2024. – robertsky (talk) 02:20, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Vice regent I'll be the second admin to chime in that this would need a full move discussion to make me comfortable executing the move. --Ahecht (TALK
