Help talk:Moving pages

This page http://avidflyer.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Towing was set up as a category page, then a user edited it as a content page. I want to move the content to a new page named "Trailer Towing" and restore the original category page. However there is no Move link at the top of the page. What's the best way to do this? --N757jh 01:12, 28 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Good question. I'm not sure what is happening - I'll ask. Edit: it appears this may be on purpose, in order to prevent category redirects. You will have to cut and paste the article contents. Kirkburn (talk) 14:57, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Wilco. Thanks for the assist. --N757jh 15:33, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Facebook likes
What happens to the Facebook likes for a page when you move it - do they stay at the old page, so the count begins again under the new name? ··gracefool☺ 11:30, August 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * Answer: They stay at the old page :( Added to the FAQ. ··gracefool☺ 12:38, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

Redirects
Shouldn't there be a section about suppression of redirects when moving? — Bluefire2 (talk) 13:54, December 3, 2011 (UTC)

I had to ask this:
I was able to rename pages, but I can't do it any more. I don't know what happened. My guess is you can't rename a page if a page is too old. Let's say a page was created more than a year ago, so you can't rename it any more. Am I wrong or right? If I am wrong, what is the reason to my not renaming a certain page, at the moment??? Please tell me, an admin who's not-so-professional. RomeoRomeo (talk) 16:04, November 26, 2016 (UTC)


 * Some pages might be protected by local admin so you cant rename it. if its your own wiki or wiki you administer you can contact staff it might be a bug. Minato  (Talk) 16:36, November 26, 2016 (UTC)

How do I separate a file revision from an uploaded file?
Hello, dear fellow wikians.

I have a question regarding the separation of files.

Just a few minutes ago, I uploaded a few images to our wiki via the Admin Dashboard, by using the Add Multiple Photos-tool.

When the upload was completed, I noticed that I (by sheer accident) uploaded two files, related to the same location, by the same filename instead of naming them "file.png" and "file 2.png".

So I ended up with "file.png" featuring two revisions instead.

Now I wanted to know how I am supposed to separate one revision, featuring the accidentally misnamed file, from the other, as I haven't seen any option to do so.

Even when I selected the older revision on its own, there was no way for me to rename that one revision's file, as I ended up renaming the whole file (including all two revisions) instead.

Does anyone know how I can separate a revision from a file to feature it as it's own, separate file?

I just wanted to know, in case this might happen again, as I am not the only admin on the wiki and want to share that knowledge with my fellow admins.

Thank you for reading this.

 * Hello, for separating file go to history of file and undo the new revision. you can re upload image. this type of questions are better asked in Special:Forum for quick reply.
