Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests

WP:RMT
WP:RMTR

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|||}}

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, you can request the other page be deleted. This applies for example if the the other page is 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:Move over redirect instead. To request the other page be deleted, add the following code to the top of the page that is in the way:

{{db-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.

I Know My Love (song) → I Know My Love (move) (discuss) – The only topic of the same name. – George Ho (talk) 18:50, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment this is the result of a bad merge. NickPenguin merged "I Know My Love" to "I Know My Love (song)" in 2014, by merging the larger and older article to the smaller and newer one. The older article is at the base name. I would undo the merger, and then see if we really need any information at the premerge "(song)" article that wasn't already in the larger article. In any case the destination's page cannot be overwritten per WP:MAD for keeping edit histories. Usually one merges the smaller and newer articles to the older and larger ones, this went the opposite direction. NOTE: there has been no change in the two articles since the merge, so undoing the merge is a simple revert on each page. -- 67.70.35.44 (talk) 04:18, 18 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Contested technical requests

Requests to revert undiscussed moves

Ebola virus outbreak in the United States → Ebola virus cases in the United States (move) (discuss) – The current title is controversial, not-neutral, and no consensus was established for it. A move discussion is underway, but the previous title should be re-established now, it appears. (I think this request is in the proper spot, by the way.) I mention here some details. The talk page of the article also shows discussion. – Biosthmors (talk) pls notify me (i.e. {{U}}) while signing a reply, thx 12:45, 17 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
