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:..."

  • To list a technical request: edit the Uncontroversial technical requests subsection and insert the following code at the bottom of the list, filling in pages and reason:

    {{subst:RMassist|current page title|new title|reason=edit summary for the move}}

    This will automatically insert a bullet and include your signature. Please do not edit the article's talk page.
  • If you object to a proposal listed in the uncontroversial technical requests section, please move the request to the Contested technical requests section, append a note on the request elaborating on why, and sign with ~~~~. Consider pinging the requester to let them know about the objection.
  • If your technical request is contested, or if a contested request is left untouched without reply, create a requested move on the article talk and remove the request from the section here. The fastest and easiest way is to click the "discuss" button at the request, save the talk page, and remove the entry on this page.

Uncontroversial technical requests

Contested technical requests

es:Marta (canción) is another song. Are we sure this non-charting song is the only notable one? In ictu oculi (talk) 13:54, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Marta (Nena Daconte song) since the charting song appears to have been a casual undiscussed deletion, I've restored it In ictu oculi (talk) 14:07, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Marta (Nena Daconte song) is unsourced and unnotable, a redirect to Nena Daconte seems fine. @Extraordinary Writ: 162 etc. (talk) 16:34, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Why is a charting song that is the only song on es.wp not notable, but an uncharting Spanish song which has no article on es.wp automatically notable on en.wp? There obviously are sources for the es.wp song since it charted. In ictu oculi (talk) 12:16, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Per WP:NSONG: "Songs and singles are probably notable if they have been the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works whose sources are independent of the artist and label." If there are such reliable sources in the case of the Nena Daconte song, why haven't they been added to the article? 162 etc. (talk) 16:28, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • London Cable Car (currently a redirect to London cable car) → IFS Cloud Cable Car (currently a redirect instead to London cable car) (move · discuss) – rebrand has now been completed Buttons0603 (talk) 19:15, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    This doesn't seem Uncontroversial to me. For one thing, WP:NAMECHANGES advises us to look at reliable sources and determine what the updated WP:COMMONNAME is in reliable sources, after the official change of name took place. Secondly, we often avoid sponsorship names, at least when it comes to stadia, since these are often transient and subject to frequent change when new deals emerge. The key question either way is what is common in sources.  — Amakuru (talk) 23:43, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I've been on it several times, and I don't think I've heard anyone ever call it anything other than "the Emirates cable car" or "the O2 cable car". Given that it's no longer sponsored by Emirates, I think "London Cable Car" (although I would prefer "London cable car") is a reasonably solid choice of title. I would hold fire with the IFS thing for a while. Dr. Vogel (talk) 13:06, 23 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Your opinion on what people call it is WP:OR and should not be taken into account here. The cable car has literally been renamed, I don't see why this has been contested. Buttons0603 (talk) 21:04, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Pumpkin chucking (currently a redirect to Punkin chunkin) → Punkin Chunkin (currently a redirect instead to Punkin chunkin) (move · discuss) – All the major events, governing bodies, and almost all the cited sources refer to it as "Punkin Chunkin". Why do we make up our own name for it here? Can't move it myself since a redirect already exists. Mr. Swordfish (talk) 15:57, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The sources, as well as the article itself, show a mixed picture. And it's been moved before. Dr. Vogel (talk) 22:47, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    19 of the 24 cited sources use punkin chunkin. Exactly one uses the stilted "Pumpkin Chucking". Not a "mixed picture" at all. Is there another reliable source anywhere that calls it Pumpkin Chuckng? Put it into google and you get "Did you mean: pumpkin chunkin" followed by a bunch of articles that refer to it as "punkin chunkin"
    Basically, it's just the Utah event and wikipedia that are outliers here.
  • So what if it's been moved before? The point is to reflect what the reliable sources present. And the sources, both those cited in the article and all that I can find by doing an internet search with very few exceptions refer to it as "punkin chunkin". The onus would be on those in favor of "pumpkin chucking" to present the reliable sources referring to it as such. Mr. Swordfish (talk) 13:25, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Also, the body of the article itself only uses "chucking" two times, . Meanwhile, chunkin appears in the body of the article 26 times (and another 23 times in the references section). This is not a "mixed picture" by any reasonable definition.
    Pumpkin Chucking is a rarely used variant, appearing often enough that the article should mention it as an alternative, but clearly not common enough to warrant usage as the title of the article. Mr. Swordfish (talk) 18:06, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    It's also a descriptive title, not the full name of a single specific event, so – if moved – it should be "chunkin", not "Chunkin". —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 00:39, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    It's a sport, or something, not a copyrighted game or something owned by an association. It's like the difference American football and the National Football league. Should remain lower case. SchreiberBike | ⌨  02:35, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Agree with ⁠ ⁠BarrelProof and SchreiberBike that lower case is appropriate. Mr. Swordfish (talk) 13:28, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Grace (Lil Baby song) (currently a redirect to Grace (Lil Baby and 42 Dugg song)) → Grace (Lil Baby and 42 Dugg song) (move) – 42 Dugg is not a featuring artist and the page is created as if he was 2803:9800:9012:B7C5:6144:AFA2:F153:FA4A (talk) 12:25, 23 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    We sure about that? I clicked a couple references from the article [1] [2] and they have this as "ft. 42 Dugg". 162 etc. (talk) 17:40, 23 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Seconded. Most sources in the article use clear "feature"-related terminology. QuietHere (talk) 06:16, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • 4 Da Gang → 4 da Gang (currently a redirect back to 4 Da Gang) (move · discuss) – lowercase, as "the" would be 162 etc. (talk) 05:42, 24 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm contesting this, as a quick Google search shows a mix of upper and lower, though predominantly upper. - UtherSRG (talk)
For titles, we would usually follow MOS:TITLECAPS and WP:NCCAPS, which state that short articles like "the" (or in this case, "da") are in lowercase. 162 etc. (talk) 19:20, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Key word is usually. I think this needs to go to a formal RM. - UtherSRG (talk) 19:25, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
