Page moves
Hi please note that only admins are permitted to move pages on this wiki. Please address on the article talk page why you think the page should be moved thanks Shambala108 ☎  01:01, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Again noting this policy. Failure to abide by this policy could result in a block. Shambala108 ☎  02:50, 3 November 2021 (UTC)

Thanks, sorry, new here and also I'm a dumbass. Starkidsoph ☎  05:37, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Not a dumbass; we used to have little notifications when you got a message on your talk page but among the stupid new changes that was removed. Also there is at the moment no way to access the forums, where the policy is spelled out in detail (that's why I didn't link to it in the post above).
 * To make a long story short, all page moves leave behind a redirect. Sometimes that's fine but sometimes it's not, like for a misspelling. However, only admins can delete unnecessary redirects; non-admins can't do it. Plus, page moves usually require the moving of all links to the new name, and not everyone does that when they want to move a page; so it's just easier to only allow admins to move pages (unfortunately, the software still allows it, but policy does not). Hope this explains everything Shambala108 ☎  22:59, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
