Renaming or moving pages
Here is how to rename a page:
- Click on the Move tab at the top of the page you want to move.
- In the To new title: box, enter your new page name.
- In the Reason box, enter a quick note about the reason.
- Click the Move page button.
- You'll see the message: The page has been moved.
Note that moving a page automatically results in the old page becoming a redirect to the new page. Thus, links to the old page will continue to function.
To change links so that they point directly to the new page, do the following:
- Go to the new page.
- Click What links here on the left side of the page under toolbox.
- You'll be taken to a list of pages that link to the page either directly or via a redirect.
- You can then visit each of those pages individually and edit the links there so that they point directly to the new page name.
Deleting a page
To mark a page for deletion, replace all the content of the page with {{deleteme}}. The page will then be deleted later.
