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
Uncontroversial technical requests
- ASL Aviation Holdings DAC (currently a redirect to ASL Aviation Holdings) → ASL Aviation Holdings (move · discuss) – WP:COMMONNAME Skprryon (talk) 22:59, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- KFF Tirana AS (currently a redirect to Tirana AS) → Tirana AS (move · discuss) – The club's name has always been Tirana AS and shouldn't be confused with a different club which has a similar name, KFF Tirana. Kj1595 (talk) 17:16, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Kj1595 Are they different? KFF Tirana says they were previously named Tirana AS. Unless I'm mistaken, the AS page should be merged into the KFF Tirana one as they're largely redundant. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 16:13, 4 June 2024 (UTC)- I have yet to find a single Albanian source which refers to KFF Tirana as the successor club to AS Tirana. AS Tirana formed its own history, independent of KF Tirana. Not only in name but in the logo the club used. Kj1595 (talk) 18:45, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Pinging @Fjorilda09, who added Tirana AS's statistics to the KFF Tirana page. --Ahecht (TALK

- Chaudhary Charan Singh College of Law → Chaudhary Charan Singh Vidhi Mahavidyalaya (currently a redirect back to Chaudhary Charan Singh College of Law) (move · discuss) – name according to official website i.e. https://www.ccsvm.org 14.139.183.121 (talk) 17:45, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- Per WP:OFFICIALNAME, we don't automatically call it what the institution itself calls it, we should go by the common name in reliable 3rd party sources. Several sources in the article use the present name, and it also has the slight advantage of being recognizable in English. Suggest a discussion might be in order. — Amakuru (talk) 09:10, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
Requests to revert undiscussed moves
- 2022 Beijing Sitong Bridge protest → Beijing Sitong Bridge protest (currently a redirect back to 2022 Beijing Sitong Bridge protest) (move · discuss) – Undiscussed and unnecessary move Amigao (talk) 00:24, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Amigao you should be able to move this back by yourself? – robertsky (talk) 02:05, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Amigao: Technically the request to revert an undiscussed move is valid, but OTOH I think the present title is the correct one per naming conventions at WP:NCE. We only omit the year if it's a widely-known event that is clear without a year. — Amakuru (talk) 10:01, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
Contested technical requests
- Mezhdunarodnaya (Moscow Metro) → Moskva-Siti (Moscow Metro) (move · discuss) – The station was officially renamed on 31 March 2024 212.3.130.205 (talk) 15:22, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- How about Moscow-City (Moscow Metro), in line with Moscow-City? 162 etc. (talk) 19:56, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Names of metro stations are usually not translated: Ploshchad Revolyutsii, Park Pobedy, Slavyansky Bulvar, ..., so I think we should follow the trend. 212.3.130.205 (talk) 18:00, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Asukite 2A00:1FA0:AC2:E948:0:47:5AB2:6B01 (talk) 04:51, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- In this case, unless @162 etc. agrees we should have a discussion, as anything we move here without clear consensus (or rather, the lack of any indicator that consensus 'might' be needed) can and most likely will be disputed and reverted. If you want to open a discussion, you can click the "discuss" link in the header above, include your rationale in the template and click publish, this will create a discussion on the article's talk page.

- Moved to contested until we hear back (need consensus if there are alternatives suggested) ASUKITE 17:54, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- Right, I don't see any reliable sources for this. If it's named after Moscow-City, I don't see why we should use BGN/PCGN (WP:RUS) just for the sake of it. 162 etc. (talk) 03:43, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

- Salumi → salume (currently a redirect back to Salumi) (move · discuss) – Singular form. JackkBrown (talk) 06:50, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- Doesn't seem uncontroversial - salumi has much higher usage than salume.[1] And probably matches the usual salami rather than salame too. — Amakuru (talk) 09:32, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Amakuru: all right, but "salami" (English word; in English the plural is mostly used for some foods, and I still don't understand why; e.g. "panini") in Italian is "salame", while the singular of "salumi" is "salume". JackkBrown (talk) 10:20, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
