Forum:Changing wiki name

While working on the novelas wiki I realized that it could easily encompass multiple other extant wikis on Wikia: Basilicus, Conworld, Fantasy-worlds, and Science fiction. Would it be possible to shift all the pages from all these other wikis into just one wiki, so that we could all feel part of a bigger whole? Ideally, this would involve making a bot that could move all the pages from their site in one wiki to another, and then we could leave a note at the closed wikis redirecting to the bigger whole.

We could also change the name of the novelas wiki with all this added content to Stories Wiki or something. Novelas is a Spanish word (English equivalents are Novels and Novellas), and there are no Spanish contributors, so the name of our wiki is particularly awkward. In addition, having our wiki being informally called the Fiction Wiki isn't very inclusive, especially if we plan to add nonfiction, or wikistories, or interactive fiction, or constructed worlds--all of which could very well go into the Novelas wiki. I read somewhere that doing this should be easy, but I'm rather wary of tampering with Special:Allmessages.
