"Renaming"/moving an article/page

Regular editors can Template:Em rename a page. Maybe admins can (not sure about that). Editors can only move a page. When doing so:

  • the history of the page is moved as-well, so it stays available.
  • the old page is automatically changed into a redirect page, again admin's can move without redirect but regular editors can't

It is not a good idea to copy the text of the page into a new page because then the history is been lost. And the history staying with the old page loses its relevance

Moving a page is a multi step process:

  1. The actual move ("arrow" next to the search-box)
  2. go back to the old page and evaluate and adapt the links pointing to it (What links here, under tools in the left navbar)
  3. Check for, and change, Double redirects
  4. evaluate if the old page:
  • stays a redirect
  • needs to be changed into a disambiguation page {{Disambig}}. The original page is split into two or there is a new page about the subject E.g.
    • the original page was getting to broad and rewritten in two, or more, pages
    • or mission "Do something" exist for multiple levels and/or factions so there are now the pages "Do something (Level 1)" and "Do something (Level 2)"
  • is a candidate for {{Deletion}} because of spelling error or something like that
  • write a new page. Maybe a broad overview of the subject with links to one or more pages with the details (including the original page)
