  • WP:REQMOVE
  • Requested moves is a process for requesting the retitling (moving) of an article, template, or project page on Wikipedia. For retitling files, categories and other items, see When not to use this page.

    Please read the article titling policy and the guideline regarding primary topics before moving a page or requesting a page move.

    Any autoconfirmed user can use the Move function to perform most moves (see Help:How to move a page). If you have no reason to expect a dispute concerning a move, be bold and move the page. However, it may not always be possible or desirable to do this:

    Requests are generally processed after seven days. If consensus to move the page is reached at or after this time, a reviewer will carry out the request. If there is a consensus not to move the page, the request will be closed as "not moved". When consensus remains unclear, the request may be relisted to allow more time for consensus to develop, or the discussion may be closed as "no consensus". See Wikipedia:Requested moves/Closing instructions for more details on the process.

    Wikipedia:Move review can be used to contest the outcome of a move request as long as all steps are followed. If a discussion on the closer's talk page does not resolve an issue, then a move review will evaluate the close of the move discussion to determine whether or not the contested close was reasonable and consistent with the spirit and intent of common practice, policies, and guidelines.

    When not to use this page

  • WP:RMNOT
  • Separate processes exist for moving certain types of pages, and for changes other than page moves:

    Undiscussed moves

  • WP:BOLDMOVE
  • Autoconfirmed editors may move a page without discussion if all of the following apply:

    If you disagree with a prior bold move, and the new title has not been in place for a long time, you may revert the move yourself. If you cannot revert the move for technical reasons, then you may request a technical move.

    Move wars are disruptive, so if you make a bold move and it is reverted, do not make the move again. Instead, follow the procedures laid out in § Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves.

    Requesting technical moves

  • WP:RM#TR
  • WP:RM#TM
  • WP:RM#SPEEDY
  • WP:RMTR
  • WP:RMT
  • 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:..."

    Technical requests

    Uncontroversial technical requests

    Requests to revert undiscussed moves

    Contested technical requests

    That should be lowercase per WP:SENTENCECASE. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 14:19, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      Agree Tule-hog (talk) 20:35, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Also simply oppose. There are tactics, techniques and procedures involved in many activities. That's not what the article is about. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 14:42, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    TTPs is a term in security studies applied to a broader range of attackers than terrorists. See APTs comment. Work has already begun on the article to expand the scope (should the request wait until satisfactorily expanded?). Tule-hog (talk) 20:39, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    There are also non-attacking and non-security scenarios that involve tactics, techniques, and procedures. For example, political campaigns have tactics, techniques, and procedures. Nursing involves tactics, techniques, and procedures. Something is needed to identify a context. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 01:14, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    From what I've gathered, this is an acronym used specifically in security studies. Only references to the phrase TTP for nursing and politics I could find were in a military context. Tule-hog (talk) 02:34, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Common name still appears to be the page name per the official website and most sources. I suggest starting a requested move discussion. C F A 💬 16:39, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Graham at Amplify "Mascot Books" is still the common name. The article is about "Mascot Books", not its parent company at the moment. C F A 💬 18:05, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm going to contest this one. While it would be consistent with many other plant genus at their scientific name rather than common names, this common name is well known among the public. It is almost as popular a common name as Tulip, another genus at its common name rather than at genus Tulipa. Evidence of popularity Google Ngram. 🌿MtBotany (talk) 21:15, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves

  • WP:PCM
  • The discussion process is used for potentially controversial moves. A move is potentially controversial if either of the following applies:

    Use this process if there is any reason to believe a move would be contested. For technical move requests, such as to correct obvious typographical errors, see Requesting technical moves. The technical moves procedure can also be used for uncontroversial moves when the requested title is occupied by an existing article.

    Do not create a new move request when one is already open on the same talk page. Instead, consider contributing to the open discussion if you would like to propose another alternative. Multiple closed move requests may be on the same page, but each should have a unique section heading.

    Do not create a move request to rename one or more redirects. Redirects cannot be used as current titles in requested moves.

    Requesting a single page move

    To request a single page move, click on the "New section" (or "Add topic") tab of the talk page of the article you want moved, without adding a new subject/header, inserting this code:

    {{subst:requested move|New name|reason=Place here your rationale for the proposed page name change, ideally referring to applicable naming convention policies and guidelines, and providing evidence in support where appropriate. If your reasoning includes search engine results, please prioritize searches limited to reliable sources (e.g. books, news, scholarly papers) over other web results. You don't need to add your signature at the end, as this template will do so automatically.}}
    

    Replace New name with the requested new name of the page (or with a simple question mark, if you want more than one possible new name to be considered). The template will automatically create the heading "Requested move 24 July 2024" and sign the post for you.

    There is no need to edit the article in question. Once the above code is added to the Talk page, a bot will automatically add the following notification at the top of the affected page:

    Unlike other request processes on Wikipedia, such as Requests for comment, nominations need not be neutral. Make your point as best you can; use evidence (such as Google Ngrams and pageview statistics) and refer to applicable policies and guidelines, especially our article titling policy and the guideline on disambiguation and primary topics.

    WikiProjects may subscribe to Article alerts to receive RM notifications. For example, Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography/Article alerts/Requested movesistranscludedtoWikipedia talk:WikiProject Biography. RMCD bot notifies many of the other Wikiprojects listed on the talk page of the article to be moved to invite project members to participate in the RM discussion. Requesters should feel free to notify any other Wikiproject or noticeboard that might be interested in the move request, as long as this notification is neutral.

    Single page move on a different talk page

    Occasionally, a move request must be made on a talk page other than the talk page of the page to be moved. For example, a request to rename Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/ResourcestoWikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Reviewing and templates would need to take place at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Articles for creation because the talk page of the project page to be moved, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Articles for creation/Resources, is a redirect to that centralized discussion page. In this type of case, the requested move should be made using the following code:

    {{subst:requested move|reason=(the reason for the page move goes here).|current1=(present title of page to be renamed)|new1=(proposed title of page)}}
    

    The |1= unnamed parameter is not used. The |current1= and |new1= parameters are used similar to multiple page moves described below.

    Requesting multiple page moves

    A single template may be used to request multiple related moves. On one of the talk pages of the affected pages, create a request and format it as below. A sample request for three page moves is shown here (for two page moves, omit the lines for current3 and new3). For four page moves, add lines for current4 and new4, and so on. There is no technical limit on the number of multiple move requests, but before requesting very large multi-moves, consider whether a naming convention should be changed first. Discuss that change on the talk page for the naming convention, e.g., Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (sportspeople).

    To request a multiple page move, edit at the bottom of the talk page of the article you chose for your request, without adding a new header, inserting this code:

    {{subst:requested move
    | current1 = Current title of page 1
    | new1     = New title for page 1 with the talk page hosting this discussion
    | current2 = Current title of page 2
    | new2     = New title for page 2
    | current3 = Current title of page 3
    | new3     = New title for page 3
    | reason   = Place here your rationale for the proposed page name change, ideally referring to applicable naming convention policies and guidelines, and providing evidence in support where appropriate. If your reasoning includes search engine results, please prioritize searches limited to reliable sources (e.g. books, news, scholarly papers) over other web results. You don't need to add your signature at the end, as this template will do so automatically.
    }}
    

    For example, to propose moving the articles Wikipedia and Wiki, put this template on Talk:Wikipedia with current1 set to Wikipedia and current2 set to Wiki. The discussion for all affected articles is held on the talk page of the article where the template is placed (Talk:Wikipedia). Do not sign the request with ~~~~, since the template does this automatically (so if you sign it yourself there will be two copies of your signature at the end of the request). Do not skip pairs of numbers.

    RMCD bot automatically places a notice section on the talk page of all pages that are included in your request except the one hosting the discussion, to call attention to the move discussion that is in progress and to suggest that all discussion for all of the pages included in the request should take place at that one hosting location.

    For multi-move discussions hosted on a page which is itself proposed to be moved, it is not necessary to include the |current1=Current title of page 1 for the page hosting the discussion, as its current title can be inferred automatically. Occasionally the discussions for significant multi-move requests may be hosted on WikiProject talk pages or other pages in Project namespace, in which case it is necessary to include |current1= to indicate the first article to be moved.

    Request all associated moves explicitly

    Please list every move that you wish to have made in your request. For example, if you wish to move Cricket (disambiguation)toCricket because you do not believe the sport is the primary topic for the search term "Cricket", then you actually want to move two pages, both Cricket (disambiguation) and Cricket. Thus you must list proposed titles for each page affected by your request. For example, you might propose:

    If a new title is not proposed for the sport, it is more difficult to achieve consensus for a new title for that article. A move request that does not show what to do with the material at its proposed target, such as:

    is incomplete. Such requests may be completed as a request to decide the best new title by discussion.

    If a disambiguation page is in the way of a move, the request may be completed as proposing to add (disambiguation).

    Commenting on a requested move

    All editors are welcome to contribute to the discussion regarding a requested page move. There are a number of standards that Wikipedians should practice in such discussions:

    When participating, please consider the following:

    Please remember that reasonable editors will sometimes disagree, but that arguments based in policy, guidelines, and evidence have more weight than unsupported statements. When an editor offers an argument that does not explain how the move request is consistent with policies and guidelines, a reminder to engage in constructive, on-topic discussion may be useful. On the other hand, a pattern of responding to requests with groundless opinion, proof by assertion, and ignoring content guidelines may become disruptive. If a pattern of disruptive behavior persists after efforts are made to correct the situation through dialogue, please consider using a dispute resolution process.

    Closing a requested move

    Any uninvolved editor in good standing may close a move request. Please read the closing instructions for information on how to close a move request. The Simple guide to closing RM discussions details how to actually close a requested move discussion.

    Relisting a requested move

    Relisting a discussion moves the request out of the backlog up to the current day in order to encourage further input. The decision to relist a discussion is best left to uninvolved experienced editors upon considering, but declining, to close the discussion. In general, discussions should not be relisted more than once before properly closing.[b] Users relisting a debate which has already been relisted, or relisting a debate with a substantial discussion, should write a short explanation on why they did not consider the debate sufficient to close. While there is no consensus forbidding participation in a requested move discussion after relisting it, many editors consider it an inadvisable form of supervote. If you want to relist a discussion and then participate in it, be prepared to explain why you think it was appropriate.

    Relisting should be done using {{subst:RM relist}}, which automatically includes the relister's signature, and which must be placed at the very end of the initial request after the move requester's signature (and subsequent relisters' signatures).

    When a relisted discussion reaches a resolution, it may be closed at any time according to the closing instructions; there is no required length of time to wait before closing a relisted discussion.

    If discussion has become stale, or it seems that discussion would benefit from more input of editors versed in the subject area, consider more widely publicizing the discussion, such as by notifying WikiProjects of the discussion using the template {{RM notification}}. Banners placed at the top of the talk page hosting the move request can often be used to identify WikiProjects suitable for notification.

    Notes

    1. ^ A nominator making a procedural nomination with which they may not agree is free to add a bulleted line explaining their actual position. Additional detail, such as sources, may also be provided in an additional bullet point if its inclusion in the nomination statement would make the statement unwieldy. Please remember that the entire nomination statement appears on the list on this page.
  • ^ Despite this, discussions are occasionally relisted more than once.
  • Current discussions

    This section lists all requests filed or identified as potentially controversial which are currently under discussion.

    This list is also available in a page-link-first format and in table format. 51 discussions have been relisted.
