This page is designed to discuss moves (renaming pages), mergers and splits. Its aim is to take the burden away from the Beer Parlour and Requests for Deletion where these issues were previously listed. Please note that uncontroversial page moves to correct typos, missing characters etc. should not be listed here, but moved directly using the move function.
- Appropriate: Renaming categories, templates, Wiktionary pages, appendices, rhymes and occasionally entries. Merging or splitting temp categories, templates, Wiktionary pages, appendices, rhymes.
- Out of scope: Merging entries which are alternative forms or spellings or synonyms such as color/colour or traveled/travelled. Unlike Wikipedia, we don’t redirect in these sort of situations. Each spelling gets its own page, often employing the templates
{{alternative spelling of}}
or{{alternative form of}}
. - Tagging pages: To tag a page, you can use the general template
{{rfm}}
, as well as one of the more specific templates{{move}}
,{{merge}}
and{{split}}
.
Note that discussions for splitting, merging, and renaming languages, once held here, are now held at WT:Language treatment requests.
