Help:Rename
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
On Wikipedia, renaming might refer to:
- Moving a page to a different name; most users can do this, via the Move tab (you must be autoconfirmed to have a Move tab)
- If you can't do this on a page you wish to move (note that some pages are move-protected), you can make a request at Wikipedia:Requested moves.
- Renaming a category; this is generally done by experienced users, and normally requires prior discussion at Categories for discussion.
- To make a request, go to Categories for discussion.
- Moving a file to a different name; only a few users ("administrators" and "file movers") can do this
- To make a request, use the template {{Rename media}} (see template for instructions).
- Changing a username to a different name; only a handful of users ("bureaucrats") can do this
- To make a request, go to Wikipedia:Changing username.
