Revision as of 22:06, 14 October 2008
This page is for the requesting of page moves by normal users. The average user's ability to move pages has been rescinded due to frequent abuse by vandals; as such, users will need to submit requests (similar in nature to those on Speedy Deletions and Protections) for pages to be moved by a sysop.
Guidelines for requesting a Page Move
Copy the template below (Or just type it), replace the text in red with the relevant details, and paste the template under the Move Request Queue heading. A day after a sysop has taken action on the request, move requests should be moved to the Archive.

New Requests
Talk:Suggestions
| Requester: | Midianian|T|T:S|C:RCS| 08:32, 14 October 2008 (BST) |
| Reason: | I think this is long overdue. Talk:Suggestions is so big and complicated that it needs to be a proper, separate page. It needs a real talk page, not some corner of a talk page of a category page nobody ever visits. |
| Destination: | Developing Suggestions |
- Well, it wasn't deleted when it was put up on there. I don't see it getting moved either. I'm not sure I see the point in having a talk page for a talk page.--– Nubis NWO 14:43, 14 October 2008 (BST)
- The point?
From Talk:Suggestions#Discussion (Suggestion A/S/L):
Interesting, but I think this belongs in Category Talk:Suggestions, not here. Linkthewindow Talk 11:49, 13 October 2008 (BST)
- There are things that occasionally need to be discussed about Talk:Suggestions, like format, how long the suggestions stay on the page, what kind of suggestions are allowed etc. Like I said, the page is complex and big enough to warrant its own page, with a dedicated talk page. Normal talk pages are much easier to follow because they're automatically included in the watchlist if the main page is. Then there's the natural way of just clicking the "discussion" tab when you want to, you know, discuss things about the page. Where should you discuss things about a discussion page? It's very unclear and confusing, especially to newbies. I'm pretty sure Talk:Developing Suggestions would get more traffic than Category_talk:Suggestions#Discussion_About_Talk:Suggestions, which would mean that you wouldn't have to post things on Talk:Suggestions that do not belong there. --Midianian|T|T:S|C:RCS| 15:24, 14 October 2008 (BST)
- I think this is a good idea. The Suggestions pages are confusing enough without having a talk page be used in such a manner. --PdeqTalk* 23:06, 14 October 2008 (BST)

Recent Actions
Templete:GoodNightGrim
| Requester: | --HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS 04:20, 11 October 2008 (BST) |
| Reason: | Incorrect namespace. |
| Destination: | Template:GoodNightGrim |
Template talk:ExtremeRepair
| Requester: | WanYao 11:26, 2 October 2008 (BST) |
| Reason: | I'm not sure how Moves work... but the reason I'm asking for a move, instead of a simple cut 'n' paste edit is because I'd like preserve the orginal page's edit history. If Moving the page allows this, please make it so; if it doesn't, I'll do it the old fashioned way. (And if the new blank "Gallery" subpage needs to be speedydeleted and re-created to transfer the edit history, do so, you don't need my seperate permission.) Thanks. |
| Destination: | Template:ExtremeRepair/Gallery |
Yeah, page moves preserve the edit history, but do you want it moved to a template sub-page (which means it's a template itself), or to the talk page sub-page, so it's just a record of images? -- boxy talk • i 12:33 2 October 2008 (BST)
- Yeah, make it a subpage of the Talk Page, please (call it "Gallery"). That's the least problematic solution. I thought of just giving it its own own page, but it's both a "gallery" and a "reporting thread" for users of the template -- so it's best it be connected to the template, I think. Thanks. --WanYao 12:58, 2 October 2008 (BST)
- Gah, and I need to speedy the page I created, sigh. --WanYao 12:59, 2 October 2008 (BST)
Moved to Template talk:ExtremeRepair/Gallery -- boxy talk • i 13:08 2 October 2008 (BST)

User:Midianian/Greasemonkey
| Requester: | Midianian|T|T:S|C:RCS| 15:21, 28 September 2008 (BST) |

| Destination: | User:Midianian/Userscripts |
Done, please put it up for speedydeletion when you fix up the links to it -- boxy talk • i 13:41 29 September 2008 (BST)
