Template:Renaming: Difference between revisions

<noinclude>{{hatnote|This is a Help desk template. If you are looking for a template to request a page move, see {{tlx|Rename}}.}}</noinclude>Pages are renamed by [[Help:Moving a page|moving]] them to new target names. This procedure preserves the page's [[Help:Page history|edit history]]. Please do not rename a page by copying/pasting its content to a new page name. If you have an account that is at least four days old and have made more than 10 edits ([[WP:AUTOCONFIRM|autoconfirmed]]), you can move a page yourself, but please first review [[Wikipedia:Article titles]]. If you still wish to rename the page, go to it, click the drop-down menu at the top (near the ''History'' button and ''Watchlist'' star), and choose ''Move''. You can then specify a new name for the article. The old page name will automatically become a [[Wikipedia:Redirect|redirect]] to the new page. However, if you think the move would be at all controversial you should request the move on the talk page using the [[Wikipedia:Requested moves]] process. Even where a move is uncontroversial, if the desired target page name ''already exists'' and is other than a [[WP:REDIRECT|redirect]] with only one edit, you will need an [[Wikipedia:Administrators|administrator]] to move the page for you,  which can be requested at the [[WP:RM/TR|technical requests section]] of requested moves. Hope this helps.{{z35}}<!-- Template:Renaming --><noinclude>
