Appearance
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.

Uncontroversial technical requests
- Crooker (disambiguation) (currently a redirect to Crooker) → Crooker (move · discuss) – WP:MALPLACED In ictu oculi (talk) 12:04, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
- Sugar cane mill (currently a redirect to Sugarcane mill) → Sugarcane mill (move · discuss) – Main page is at sugarcane. One-word is more common. 1.144.108.162 (talk) 11:08, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
Contested technical requests
- Brigidine School (currently a redirect to Queensmead School Windsor) → Queensmead School Windsor (move · discuss) – The school has changed its name QueensmeadSchoolWindsor (talk) 09:10, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
- No evidence for this. Website is still there at http://www.brigidine.org.uk/. William Avery (talk) 09:14, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
- Also the latest government School comparisons still have Brigidine School Limited at that address link. The school is still tweeting this year from https://twitter.com/brigidineschool. However it looks like the school may be changing in the future, as the company has changed name at companies-house link. QueensmeadSchoolWindsor wait until the school has actually changed (or there is evidence it has) then ask for the page move - noticing also the policies Wikipedia:Username policy and Wikipedia:Conflict of interest.

- Edmund Kemper → Ed Kemper (currently a redirect back to Edmund Kemper) (move · discuss) – Higher number of google results for Ed. 709,000 vs 160,000. And this is when the wikipedia page says Edmund. GreynSilver7 (talk) 10:02, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
- Searching google books with quotes around it gives much more for Edmund Kemper. It's mixed. Galobtter (pingó mió) 10:35, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
