Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests

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: 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.

Uncontroversial technical requests

• William Li (businessman) (currently a redirect to William Li) → William Li (move · discuss) – unnecessary dab; target is creation-protected so I can't move it myself. Zanhe (talk) 20:27, 25 February 2019 (UTC)

• Count on My Love (currently a redirect to Count On My Love) → Count On My Love (move · discuss) – A technical move request is necessary in this case because the move is blocked by an existing redirect. The reason for moving is to be consistent with the move of Count on Me to Count On Me, and other "count on" examples. — Jaydiem (talk) 20:26, 25 February 2019 (UTC)

• You Can't Count on Me (currently a redirect to You Can't Count On Me) → You Can't Count On Me (move · discuss) – A technical move request is necessary in this case because the move is blocked by an existing redirect. The reason for moving is to be consistent with the move of Count on Me to Count On Me, and other "count on" examples. — Jaydiem (talk) 20:19, 25 February 2019 (UTC)

• Fan death → Fan death theory (move · discuss) – The original Korean name for the subject of the page is "선풍기 사망설", literally meaning "Fan Death Theory". Changing the page name to "Fan death theory" would more accurately reflect what the subject is actually known in South Korea. Aceus0shrifter (talk) 14:47, 25 February 2019 (UTC)

• Sirimongkol Singwangcha (currently a redirect to Sirimongkol Singmanasak) → Sirimongkol Singwancha (currently a redirect instead to Sirimongkol Singmanasak) (move · discuss) – Has always been referred to as Sirimongkol Singwancha 綏靖天皇 (talk) 14:41, 25 February 2019 (UTC)

Contested technical requests

This is not an uncontroversial technical request: redirected Star Suvarna has an edit history back to 2017 including sockpuppetry. I've tagged the draft for a history merge, though it might not be eligible. Flapjacktastic (talk) 21:20, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
