Forum:How do I move pages and categories?

Hello everyone - how does one go about changing the name of a page (etc)? Cos:

a) at least one page has a typo in the actual title (personfication of concepts should have another i in it). b) someone has set up a redirect from hymetusite to hymetrusite, which every source I can find plus my own memory tells me is wrong - hymetusite *is* the correct spelling. c) what takes precedence when a story is named after a character or place? (for example) we have a page named 'Celestial Toymaker' and another named 'The Celestial Toymaker (TV story)' but this doesn't seem to be standard policy - elsewhere we have 'Kroton (Companion)' and plain 'Kroton' (for the crystal eggbox dudes) which seems inconsistent. Just thought I'd mention it... --Gai-jin 13:10, 15 March 2007 (UTC)


 * as to b), you remember the accurate spelling. --***Stardizzy*** 13:45, 15 March 2007 (UTC)


 * (A) To change the name you just hit the move button and that should shift it all to your new spelling (I think the administrators can actually delete the pages we don't use).
 * (B) No idea what the policy is, the theory I've been working under is whatever came first gets to have the unedited name, the Krotons came first and more people are likely to search for Kroton (and meaning the crystaline people) rather than Kroton (the Cyberman who kept his humanity from the novels). Hence Kroton (Companion) gets the altered name...though really Kroton (Companion) probably should be something like Kronton (Cyberman) or something, though I guess Kroton (Companion) works also.

 * the main Wikipedia will have something on that policy in their Style Guide. honestly, though, I don't consult. I use the same rule of thumbs as Tangerineduel when it comes to this. --***Stardizzy*** 13:46, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

changing category names
can you do? does anyone know how to do this? --***Stardizzy*** 14:01, 15 March 2007 (UTC)


 * The only I know of is to replace all links to the category with the name of another category, create the other category, and delete the original, as for some reason of which I have no idea whatsoever, category pages cannot be truly moved. Crazy developers... 15:58, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
