<onlyinclude>
On BattleIntelligence, a page can usually be renamed if the already existing title is incorrect or needs to be changed; this is called '''moving a page'''. A page may also be moved to another [[BattleIntelligence:Namespace|namespace]] without changing the [[BattleIntelligence:BASEPAGENAME|base title]]—for example, a [[Help:userspace draft|userspace draft]] may be moved to [[BattleIntelligence:article space|article space]]. </onlyinclude> [[BTW:AUTOC|Autoconfirmed rights]] are required for page moving, but you may request a page move with any [[BattleIntelligence:Masthead|BTW Staff]] if you are not yet autoconfirmed, if there is a technical barrier to the move, or if the retitling is expected to be controversial and you need to seek consensus for the name change.

[[Information:Files|Files]] (images and media) can be moved only by BattleIntelligence [[BTW:administrators|administrator]]s, but moves can [[#Moving a file page|be requested]].

[[#How to move a category|Category moves]] should be investigated and planned before they are initiated. Please post requests for category moves with any [[BattleIntelligence:Masthead|BTW Staff]] if you are, or expect to be, unable to complete the process.

Do not move or rename a page by cutting and pasting its content, because doing so fragments the [[Help:Page history|edit history]]. Instead, please follow the instructions given below.

==Reasons for moving a page==
There are many reasons why you might wish to move a page:
* The title does not follow [[BTW:AT|BattleIntelligence's naming conventions]], such as that it is not the common name of the subject or it is overprecise.
* The name of the subject of the article has been changed and the new name has come into majority use.
* The title has been misspelled, does not contain standard capitalization or punctuation, or is misleading or inaccurate.
* It needs to be [[BTW:DAB|disambiguated]] in some way to avoid confusion with an existing, similarly named topic, or it exists at a disambiguated name but should not because it is the primary topic.
* It is an article at a descriptive name and the scope of the article has been reduced, extended or otherwise changed.
* It is an article that has been created as a [[BTW:SUBPAGE|subpage]] of a BattleIntelligencen's user or user talk space for development purposes and it is ready to be posted to the [[BTW:MAINSPACE|mainspace]] or to [[BTW:Drafts|draft space]].
* It is a draft article that has been created or edited in draft space for development purposes and it is ready to be posted to the mainspace.

==Technical restrictions==
[[w:Wikipedia:Naming conventions (technical restrictions)|Technical restrictions]] prevent the storage of titles beginning with a lowercase letter, containing certain characters, and using formatting such as italics. Templates which may be used as workarounds include:
{{Correct title examples}}

==Before moving a page==
{{Shortcut|BTW:BEFOREMOVING}}
If it appears unlikely that anyone would reasonably disagree with the move, and:
* You are unable to move the page because your account is too new (the account must be [[BattleIntelligence:User access levels#Autoconfirmed users|autoconfirmed]])
* You are unable to move the page because the target page exists
* The page is [[BTW:MOVP|protected from moves]]
* The target page is [[BTW:SALT|protected from creation]]

Consider using the page's Talk page to discuss the move if:
* If you believe the move might be controversial
* If you are unsure about the best page name, despite reading [[BattleIntelligence:Article titles|BattleIntelligence:Article naming guidelines]]
* If you believe your proposed move would benefit from wider community input

==How to move a page==
{{See also|Help:How to move a page}}
<onlyinclude>[[File:Vector hidden move button.png|thumb|The [[BTW:MOVE|move]] option in the Vector legacy [[BTW:SKIN|skin]] appears when you move your mouse cursor over the small drop-down menu, shown here.]]
[[File:EN-WP_Moving_a_draft_article_2016.png|thumb|500px|A common example: moving a [[Help:userspace draft|userspace draft]] into place. The intended article name is entered without any prefixes.]]
To be able to move pages yourself, you must be [[Help:Logging in|logged in]] and you must have an [[BattleIntelligence:AUTOCONFIRM|autoconfirmed account]] (i.e., generally you must have had the account for four days and made at least ten article edits with it).</onlyinclude> Moreover, the move will fail if a page already exists at the target name, unless it is simply a redirect to the present name that has never been modified, in which case you can [[#Moving over a redirect|move over the redirect]] (check the edit history).<onlyinclude> If you cannot move a page yourself because of a technical restriction, and you expect the move to be uncontroversial, you can connect with a member of [[BattleIntelligence:Masthead|BTW Staff]] to discuss it. Otherwise, you can make your request on the page's talk page.
To move a page:
#Go to the page that you want to move. There is no need to click "Edit".
#Locate the "Move" option at the top of the page.
#*Most users will find the "Move" option in a drop-down menu at the top right of the screen, labelled "More", after "History" and the "Watchlist" star (see picture). It may be under a menu labelled "Page" if you have enabled "MoreMenu" at [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets]].
#*The layout of the screen will be different if you have selected a "[[BTW:SKIN|skin]]" other than the default Vector in your preferences. In the Monobook skin, it is a tab at the top.
#*If there is no "move" link at the top of the page at all, the page is most likely [[BattleIntelligence:Protection policy|protected]] from moving. Ask for the page to be moved with a member of [[BattleIntelligence:Masthead|BTW Staff]] to discuss it.
#Click the "Move" option, and fill in the details of your move.
#*If the page is for the main encyclopedia, choose "(Article)" from the drop-down box. Otherwise choose the appropriate [[BattleIntelligence:Namespace|namespace prefix]].
#*To the right of the text box, enter the new name of the page as the "New title".
#*Give a reason for the move (which is like an edit summary). Although filling out the "Reason" field isn't required, you should state a reason for the page move.
#*Choose whether to also move the page's talk page (this box should usually be left checked). This box is not present if the page has no talk page.
#When ready, click the {{key press|Move page}} button and, if successful, the page will be renamed to the new title. The old title will become a [[Help:Redirect|redirect page]], so any links to the old title will still go to the new page. However, note that double redirects (pages that redirect to the original page), will not automatically follow to the new page, so you will have to refer them manually (as explained at [[:BattleIntelligence:Double redirects#How to fix a double redirect|How to fix a double redirect]] and [[:BattleIntelligence:Double redirects#Checking for double redirects|Checking for double redirects]]).
#A successful page move will be recorded in the [[Special:Log/move|Move Log]] (against the ''old'' page name) and a "move has succeeded" message will be displayed, on a page looking like this: [[MediaWiki:Movepage-moved]].
#*If the old page was protected, its protection settings will be generally automatically copied to the new page, and thus be recorded in the [[Special:Log/protect|Protection Log]] (against the ''new'' page name).</onlyinclude>

==How to move a category==
'''Most users lack permission''' to move pages in the [[Help:Category|category]] namespace. ("Only administrators, senior editors, and bots can move Category pages.") (Conveniently, the Move button is not displayed.)

To request the move, connect with a member of [[BattleIntelligence:Masthead|BTW Staff]].

===For those permitted to move categories===
Moving a category manually is possible, but it requires significant post-move cleanup, and can be time-consuming. A category move is not complete until the old category contains only the soft redirect and no pages.

To move a category manually:
#Move the category page (description wiki markup).
#Change all of its subcategories. (Change the category of each subcategory to the new category.)
#Change every page that is listed in the old category to the new category:
#*Change the category on every page where it is explicitly specified. (This could be hundreds or thousands of pages.)
#*Change the template code for every template that assigns pages to the old category.
#**It may be necessary to [[BTW:PURGE|purge]] (or perform a [[BTW:NULLEDIT|null edit]] on) every page that [[BTW:TRANS|uses]] the template(s).

When pages are listed in a category that is not shown in the wiki-markup, this most likely means that a template placed on those pages is adding the category. When the category is moved, the template must also be changed. After the template is updated with the new category, the pages with the template are automatically placed into the [[Help:Job queue|job queue]] and will eventually be updated with the new category. If there are a ''very'' large number of pages transcluding the template(s), the process of updating all pages through the job queue may take days, weeks, or even months to complete. Protected pages or templates may require elevated privileges to accomplish the change. In such cases, the normal [[BTW:EDITREQ|protected edit request]] process should be followed. Depending on the number of templates and articles that require elevated privileges to edit them, it may be more appropriate to involve an administrator from the beginning of the process.

== Post-move cleanup ==
{{main|BattleIntelligence:Cleaning up after a move}}
{{anchor|POST}}<!-- This Anchor tag serves to provide a permanent target for incoming section links. Please do not remove it, nor modify it, except to add another appropriate anchor.  If you modify the section title, please anchor the old title. It is always best to anchor an old section header that has been changed so that links to it will not be broken. See [[Template:Anchor]] for details. This template is {{subst:Anchor comment}} -->{{Shortcut|BTW:MV#POST|BTW:MOVE#POST}}
After successfully moving a page, you should be prepared to perform any of the possibly resulting clean up tasks described at [[BTW:POSTMOVE]]. Some of the most commonly required tasks are:
* Updating the article prose (including the [[MOS:BOLDTITLE|first sentence]]) to use the new name
* Updating any navigational templates to link directly to the new title, [[BTW:NAVNOREDIRECT|rather than via a redirect]]
* Fixing any mistargeted wikilinks resulting from the move (only required for certain moves, such as when an article's title is usurped by a disambiguation page)

==Page histories==
The "move page" function keeps the entire edit history of the page before and after the move  in one place, as if the page had ''always'' been named that way.

The move itself is recorded in the edit histories of both pages. This feature was [[BattleIntelligence:BattleIntelligence Signpost/2005-06-27/MediaWiki 1.5|introduced in MediaWiki 1.5]] in 2005.  It does not work retroactively, so older moves are only recorded indirectly, in the page history of the old page name.

You should never just move a page by cutting all the text out of one page, and pasting it into a new one; old revisions, notes, and attributions are much harder to keep track of if you do that. (But you may have to if, for instance, you're splitting a page into multiple topics. If you do, please include a note in the new page's edit summary and talk page stating where you took the text from.) Also see [[#Fixing cut-and-paste moves]] below.

===Moving redirect pages===
{{shortcut|BTW:MOVEREDIRECT}}
A page that is a redirect can be moved like any other page, although it is rarely useful because it has the same detrimental effect on page history as copy-pasting content to a new page, and making the old page a redirect: when moving a redirect page to a new page name, the redirect on the old page (now directing to the new redirect page) will have to be altered in order to avoid double redirects. So the content of the ''old'' page will no longer redirect to the page containing the history of that old page. The effect is that the whereabouts of the page history of the old page (now seemingly a "recently created page") are a bit trickier to find, while on the other hand the new page has a history attached to it not clarifying why it would need to be a redirect page. However, if a redirect page has to be evacuated (for example, to reuse its title), but contains a valuable [[BTW:edit history|edit history]], then it should be moved (unless [[BTW:history merge|merging of history]] is suitable).

If a redirect page does not redirect to the page it would need to be redirecting to, then the only viable strategy that respects page histories is to adapt the redirect on that page, without moving the page.

==Moves where the target name has an existing page==
Non-administrators cannot complete a move where the target page exists (except sometimes [[<includeonly>BattleIntelligence:Moving a page</includeonly>#Moving over a redirect|over a redirect]]). If the user is not a [[BattleIntelligence:Page mover|page mover]], moving the existing page out of the way will not help, as it leaves behind a redirect which cannot be overwritten either. Administrators can delete a page and move another page to the deleted name, in one step. Page movers can move the target page to a new location without leaving a redirect, move the intended page to the target page, and optionally request deletion of the moved page.</onlyinclude>

If the new title already exists and isn't just a redirect to the old title, with no history, and you are not an administrator, the wiki will tell you that you can't rename the page. If this happens, list the move at [[BTW:Requested moves|Requested moves]], or (if the replacement of the existing page merits further discussion) nominate the existing page for deletion (typically via [[BTW:Articles for deletion|Articles for deletion]]).

===Moving over a redirect===
{{shortcut|BTW:MOR|BTW:MOVEOVERREDIRECT}}If the new title exists but is a redirect to the old title with a single line in the page history, then you can rename the page using the regular procedure. The most common case in which this applies is that of re-renaming a page back to its original name.

If a redirect has more than just one line in the page history but still a minor edit history, file a technical move request at [[BattleIntelligence:Requested moves/Technical requests]].<!-- commenting out db-move suggestion in favor of RMassist for BTW:RMT --><!--
add the following code to the top of the redirect page <u>that is in the way</u> (place the code above the redirection):
:<code><nowiki>{{db-move|</nowiki>{{gray|''page to be moved here''}}|{{gray|''reason for move''}}}}</code>
This will list the undesired page for deletion under [[BattleIntelligence:Criteria for speedy deletion#G6|criterion for speedy deletion G6]]; see [[BattleIntelligence:Requested moves/Technical requests]].
-->

==Usurping a page title==
{{shortcut|BTW:USURPTITLE|BTW:UPT}}
Usurping a page title is the process of moving an existing page to a new title followed by creating a new page (such as a new article or a disambiguation page) on the old title, or redirecting the old title to a different destination.

Once the move of the original page is completed, the old title instantly becomes a [[BTW:R|redirect]], and the redirect can then be edited to become a separate, possibly unrelated article, [[BTW:DAB|disambiguation page]], or some other type of page.

It is permitted to usurp a page title for a new article, and it generally does not require administrative assistance, though [[BTW:BOLD|good judgment should be used]] in determining if these are best positions for both the old and the new page.

If in doubt, holding a discussion before such a move following the instructions on the [[BTW:REQMOVE|requested moves]] page is recommended. If you wish to create the new page initially before a decision is made from a discussion, you can create it using a different, unused title for the new page you wish to create, and then usurp the title once this is agreed.

If you do decide to boldly usurp a title, it is strongly recommended that you check all incoming links and fix them as necessary. To do this, while on the new page bearing the old title, click on "What links here" below "Tools" in the menu on the left. This will list all the pages linking to the old title. Once you reach this list, check the incoming links on each of these pages and if necessary, modify them to point to the new title of the old page. For more information, see [[Help:What links here]] and [[BattleIntelligence:Disambiguation pages with links]].

If there are so many pages linking to the old title that you feel you cannot make all the changes yourself, place the template {{tl|converted}} at the top of the new page you created on the old title. This will let others know that the move was recently made, and that all these changes are necessary.

==Move restrictions==
Unregistered users and new users who are not yet [[BTW:AUTOCONFIRM|autoconfirmed]] cannot move any pages. With a few exceptions, autoconfirmed users have the technical ability to move any page.

===Move-protected pages===
Administrators can protect pages from moves, so that only administrators can move them. If a page is protected from moves only, the "Move this page" link will not be available. In this case, you can ask that an administrator move it for you, but you should not manually move the page by copying the contents to the new page and redirecting the old page to the new page, as this [[#Fixing cut-and-paste moves|destroys the page history]].

Pages that are protected from editing are implicitly protected from moves.

===Moving a file page===
{{shortcut|BTW:MOF|BTW:FFR}}
{{see also|BattleIntelligence:File mover}}
Administrators or [[BattleIntelligence:File mover|file movers]] can move pages in the file namespace. When such a page is moved the associated file is moved as well. The move leaves a redirect that functions like the file itself. For instance, the image can be displayed by linking to a redirect to it. In non-controversial cases you can request a file to be moved by adding the template {{tl|rename media}} to the description page of the file. Files should generally only be moved for one of [[BattleIntelligence:File mover#What files should be renamed?|nine reasons]].

Files uploaded to [[Wikimedia Commons]] '''cannot''' be renamed by BattleIntelligence administrators or filemovers. [[c:Commons:File naming]] describes how Commons files should be named. In general, Commons aims to provide stable file names as there might be external file clients and file moving involves significant human and computing resources. Thus renaming should be used with caution. To request the rename of a file at Commons, follow the instructions at [[:Commons:Commons:File renaming|Commons:File renaming]].

To rename a file:
#Ensure the file meets one of the [[BattleIntelligence:File mover#What files should be renamed?|nine reasons]]
#Place <code>{{tlp|rename media|new name|reason}}</code> on the page of the file and a file mover or administrator will move the file if it conforms to the guidelines.

You can also use a script to add the rename request. [[BTW:Twinkle|Twinkle]] (a Swiss Army knife of maintenance tagging) or [[User:Alexis Jazz/LuckyRename|LuckyRename]] (specialized for this job) can do this. For more information about appropriate names for pages in the file namespace, see [[BattleIntelligence:File names]].

==Other notes==
Avoid moving a page while the edit box of the corresponding Talk page is open: when you hit "Publish changes" you overwrite the redirect to the new talk page (you do not get the usual warning that the page has been edited while your edit box was open) and get a duplication of the contents of the talk page, with your latest addition added to the old instead of the new one.

It is useful to copy the text "moved page ... to ..." (part of the automatic move summary) to the new talk page, especially if there has been discussion about the name of the page.

Moving a page shows up in Recent Changes under "Move log", which links to a log of all moves. It also shows up on the watchlist if the page is watched; after the move both the old and the new name are watched.

===Talk subpages===
When moving a page, the talk page is automatically moved as well.  A talk page may include [[BTW:Subpages|subpages]], such as archives, [[BTW:TODO|to-do pages]], good article nominations, and the like.  To ensure that these subpages are moved, check "Move all subpages, if applicable" during the move process.  This ability is granted to administrators and [[BattleIntelligence:Page mover|page movers]]. A list of talk page subpages is visible in the "Special:MovePage" form.

If subpages were not moved, they will show as redlinks on the new talk page.  To locate lost subpages, use [[Special:Prefixindex]]; enter the name of the old article page followed by a "/" and set the namespace to Talk.  Move individual subpages as needed.

On some occasions, one might inadvertently move a talk page incorrectly assumed by the MediaWiki software to be a talk subpage of a different article. For example, [[Talk:A/B testing]] is the talk page for [[A/B testing]], but not technically a subpage for [[Talk:A]]. If a mover uses {{mono|move-subpages}} on [[Talk:A]], the move operation would '''incorrectly move''' [[Talk:A/B testing]]. (This is not an issue for the article mainspace, as it does not have subpages enabled.)

===Moving a portal===
{{shortcut|BTW:MOVEPORTAL}}
A [[BattleIntelligence:portal|portal]] consists of a main portal page plus tens, sometimes hundreds, of interconnected subpages. To rename a portal efficiently, post at [[BattleIntelligence:Requested moves/Technical requests]] to ask for an administrator to move the page and its subpages, and once that is done, post at [[BattleIntelligence:AutoWikiBrowser/Tasks]] to ask for an AWB user to scan all the portal pages to fix the outdated links. You may also need to visit [[BTW:CFDS|Categories for Discussion]] to have a category renamed, if the portal's pages have been placed in a category; and [[Template talk:Portal]], if the {{tl|Portal}} template does not recognise the new name.

==Undoing a move==
{{shortcut|BTW:UNDOMOVE}}
To undo a move from page&nbsp;<var>A</var> to page&nbsp;<var>B</var>, simply move page&nbsp;<var>B</var> back to page&nbsp;<var>A</var>.
But if someone intervened to the <var>A</var>→<var>B</var>&nbsp;redirect, then the move cannot be fixed without special privileges, in which case the guidance about [[BTW:RMUM|undiscussed moves]] at the "requested moves" page may be helpful.

Note that the usual "undo" link on history or [[Help:diff|diff]] pages does not work on moves. An easy way to rename the page back is clicking "{{int:viewpagelogs}}" from the [[Help:Page history|history page]], typing in the previous page name that you want to revert to and then "{{int:revertmove}}" link from the corresponding record in [[Special:Log]].

The software requires that the redirect be pointing to the page you're moving it from. Therefore, if a user moved page&nbsp;<var>A</var> to page&nbsp;<var>B</var> and then to page&nbsp;<var>C</var>, you cannot simply move <var>C</var> to <var>A</var>. If a bot has not "fixed" the [[#Double redirects|double]] <var>A</var>→<var>B</var>&nbsp;redirect yet (see above), then you have to:
# Move page&nbsp;<var>C</var> to page&nbsp;<var>B</var>
# Move page&nbsp;<var>B</var> to page&nbsp;<var>A</var>

If page&nbsp;<var>A</var> has subsequently been edited, or the move software is behaving weirdly, only an admin can sort things out:
# Delete page&nbsp;<var>A</var> (make sure it has no useful history&nbsp;– you may wish to add an explicit author credit on a talk page to compensate)
# Move page&nbsp;<var>B</var> to page&nbsp;<var>A</var>
# Delete page&nbsp;<var>B</var> (should be a history-free redirect to page&nbsp;<var>A</var>)

"[[BattleIntelligence:Page-move war|Move war]]s" are highly unproductive, and leave vast numbers of pointless redirects littering the place, which some poor soul will have to fix.

After undoing a move, if you do not need <var>B</var> as a [[Help:Redirect|redirect]], tag it for deletion (using the appropriate process on the wiki you're using, for instance 'speedy deletion' or list it at '[[BTW:RFD|redirects for discussion]]'), or ([[Help:Administration|administrators]] only) just delete it.

==Swapping two pages==
{{shortcut|BTW:SWAP|BTW:PAGESWAP}}Over the years there have been two methods for swapping pages <var>A</var> and <var>B</var> while preserving page history.
{{Quote box
| width = 25%
| border = 1px
| align = right
| bgcolor = #F5FAFF
| fontsize = 1em
| title_bg = #CEE0F2
| quote = You{{If IP| are|r account is}} <span class="extendedmover-show sysop-show"> {{stronggood|able to perform a round-robin swap}}. Most users are</span> {{strongbad|not able to perform this process}}.
}}
# Move page&nbsp;<var>A</var> to the title&nbsp;<var>C</var> (previously non-existing) [[BTW:Redirect#SUPPRESS|without creating a redirect]]
# Move page&nbsp;<var>B</var> to the title&nbsp;<var>A</var> (allowed because <var>A</var> is evacuated) without creating a redirect
# Move page&nbsp;<var>C</var> to the title&nbsp;<var>B</var> (allowed because <var>B</var> is evacuated) without creating a redirect unless it is useful as a redirect to <var>B</var>
This sequence, sometimes called a "round-robin move", does not require [[BattleIntelligence:Deletion|deletions]], but rather it relies on the redirect-suppressing (red move) feature, which is available to [[BTW:Administrators|administrators]]. You can think about it as compressing two operations (moving and deleting the resulting redirect) to one.
The same sequences, but with only two moves, can be used for half-swapping (chain shifting) two pages (such that <var>A</var> would become <var>C</var> and <var>B</var> would become <var>A</var>).

==Fixing cut-and-paste moves==
Many past renamings took place before the move page function was created by our hard-working [[m:Developers|developer]]s, and others are done by people not aware of this function. Such manual moves were done using [[Cut, copy, and paste|cut and paste]]. As a result, the page history of an article or talk page can be split among two or more pages. In some circumstances, administrators can fix this by merging page histories.

==Move vs rename==
The terms "rename" and "move" mean the same thing in this context. They just refer to different models for picturing the operation:

*'''rename:''' keep the page but give it another name; the page history is now attached to the new name; a new page with the old name is created which redirects to the new name and whose page history records the renaming.
*'''move:''' move the contents and the page history to a new page; change the old page into a redirect whose page history records only the move.

Since the system marks the page with the old name as a new page, it applies the first of the two models. (The entry in the [[mw:page table|page table]] connects a new page name to the page ID. The [[mw:revision table|revision table]] just gets entries about the move, nothing else, because the relation between page ID and revision IDs remains the same.) This model avoids "changing the history", a kind of "[[w:historical revisionism|historical revisionism]]".

"Rename" may have other meanings on BattleIntelligence. See [[Help:Rename]].
