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:..."
If you are here because you want an admin to approve of your new article or your proposed page move, you are in the wrong place.

Technical requests
[edit]Uncontroversial technical requests
[edit]- M24 Sniper Weapon System → M24 sniper weapon system (currently a redirect back to M24 Sniper Weapon System) (move · discuss) – Sentence case, per WP:MILCAPS and common lowercase in sources. Dicklyon (talk) 04:01, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- Brett Harris (baseball) → Brett Harris (currently a redirect instead to The Rebelution) (move · discuss) – Title is currently a redirect to a seperate article, and that redirect will not be split into its own article. KingSkyLord (talk | contribs) 01:12, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- 2026 Cricket World Cup Qualifier (currently a redirect to 2027 Cricket World Cup qualification) → 2027 Cricket World Cup Qualifier (currently a redirect instead to 2027 Cricket World Cup qualification) (move · discuss) – In order to preserve the page history along with the indefinite extended confirmed protection level. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 10:14, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Vestrian24Bio Just to be sure, is the intent to swap the 2026 redirect with the 2027 one? I've been scratching my head over this one, unless you were looking to do a history merge? There usually isn't a point to swapping redirects, if it's just the history we were concerned about, we'd hist merge it into the target article, if it were the protection, we can request protection on the second one, otherwise both redirects already have the same target.

- I also noticed you're working on Draft:2027 Cricket World Cup Qualifier, if the intent is to clean up the targets to publish that eventually, you can request a move here when it's ready and then you can request a history merge after (as well as protection) if you need help with those steps I wouldn't mind, when the article is ready for publishing. ASUKITE 21:13, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- It's the protection for the redirect that I'm concerned about. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 00:07, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

- DOA (mixtape) → DOA (album) (currently a redirect instead to Bloodrock) (move · discuss) – Majority of sources call this an album rather than a mixtape, and the disambiguation should reflect that. Current target's album does not appear to be notable, and can/should be replaced with a hatnote. Current title should be tagged as {{r from incorrect disambiguation}}.
