Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests

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|<!--old page name, without brackets-->|<!--requested name, without brackets-->|<!--reason for move-->}}

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 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|<!--page to be moved here-->|<!--reason for 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.

Uncontroversial technical requests

• Russell 2000 → Russell 2000 Index (move) (discuss) – All of the other Russell indexes (2500, 3000, etc.) have the word "Index" in the page name. While "Russell 2000 Index" redirects to the "Russell 2000" page I think it would be best if the page name itself was the actual name of the index, specifically "Russell 2000 Index." – Brockmvendors (talk) 16:02, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

• Marko Marosi → Marko Maroši (move) (discuss) – I recently created this article, however I created it using the title without the Diacritic in his surname, this is because I didn't realise there was a Diacritic in his name. Can someone sort this out please? – IJA (talk) 14:47, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
