If you are unable to complete a move for technical reasons, you can request technical help below. This is the correct method if you tried to move a page, but you got an error message saying something like "You do not have permission to move this page, for the following reasons:..." or "The/This page could not be moved, for the following reason:..."
If you are here because you want an admin to approve of your new article or your proposed page move, you are in the wrong place.
If this is your first article and you want your draft article moved to the
mainspace, please submit it for review at
Articles for creation, by adding the code {{
subst:submit}} to the top of the
draft or
user sandbox page instead of listing it here.
Because you are
autoconfirmed, you can
move most pages yourself. Do not request technical assistance on this page if you can do it yourself.
If you need help determining whether it's okay to move the page to a different title, then please follow the instructions at the top of
Wikipedia:Requested moves.
To list a technical request: the
Uncontroversial technical requests subsection and insert the following code at the bottom of the list, filling in pages and reason:
{{
subst:RMassist|current page title|new title|reason=edit summary for the move}}
This will automatically insert a bullet and include your signature. Please do not edit the article's talk page.
If you object to a proposal listed in the uncontroversial technical requests section, please move the request to the
Contested technical requests section, append a note on the request elaborating on why, and sign with ~~~~. Consider
pinging the requester to let them know about the objection.
If your technical request is contested, or if a contested request is left untouched without reply,
create a requested move on the article talk and remove the request from the section here. The fastest and easiest way is to click the "discuss" button at the request, save the talk page, and remove the entry on this page.
Is it though? I'm not sure "indy car" really saw much use before the 1990s, retconning the entire history of American racing is at least worth a discussion.

if i can chime in, the page is an overview of Indy car racing only, which has been known by that name since the 1950s. If it was an full histort of American racing it would also discuss the other open-wheel disciplines such as sprint cars, midget cars, super modifieds and modifieds. Not to mention the non-open-wheel of NASCAR and Drag Racing. The article itself is clear that the common term is Indy car. thank you

The song by Mitski appears to have enough coverage to make it notable and I don't think there's a PDAB primary topic. I've redirected the target to the main dab page for now. —

The question is whether it's notable or not, rather than whether there's an article... I see some sources giving the song coverage, therefore it might be notable. —

No, according to
WP:SONGDAB, "unless more than one article about songs of the same name exist, there is no need to disambiguate any further." This is a well-established naming convention.

Per
WP:PRIMARYRED if the non existent article is notable then we use the full qualifier. Crouch, Swale (

@
PK2: There are currently
627 articles that directly link to
Konkani, which would need to be updated (probably manually, to make sure that they are actually intending to link to the language, and not the people) before we could transition that to a disambiguation page. --

I think a full RM would be useful here. The language may well be primary topic. —

All entries at
Category:Brussels metro stations are of the form X metro station, and this matches the standard for rail transport stations across the whole project so certainly the proposed move should not go ahead as specified. Arguably it's the Madrid metro stations which do not follow that format and should probably be renamed... On the specific question of whether further disambiguation is needed between the Brussel and the Madrid Belgicas, it seems like the diacritic (Belgica vs Bélgica) is sufficient here per
WP:SMALLDETAILS so I'd recommend leaving the Brussels one exactly as it is. Cheers —

Bélgica itself (with the diacritic) redirects to Belgium, and Brussels is in Belgium... --

Edit this section only if your request requires an administrator. Usually, do so if the page has been
fully protected or
move protected (see
this guide to which moves need administrators). Place your request in another section if it only requires a
page mover.
