Shortcuts

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: edit 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.

Oppose per WP:NCTV. 162 etc. (talk) 22:58, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NCTV is for articles related to TV – and TV only – including TV seasons, TV series (as in series 1, series 2, etc... for British TV) and TV episodes. The guideline for this nomination is WP:NCBC – not WP:NCTV! By the way, this nominator used this exact guideline to move this title to its current title and did same to similar article titles between 2018 and 2020.

Yes, it is WP:NCBC: "If the title shares a name with unlike topics (...) then disambiguation is necessary". In this case, "Nickelodeon" can refer to things that are not TV channels ("unlike topics") and the full disambiguation tag is used. See Nickelodeon (disambiguation). 162 etc. (talk) 20:55, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NCBC you mean! WP:NCTV is for articles related to TV – and TV only – including TV seasons, TV series (as in series 1, series 2, etc... for British TV) and TV episodes. This nominator used this same NCTV guideline to move the titles you're seeing to how they are now over 5 years ago! Until Number 57, Sammi Brie and by extension, Amakuru sought some specificity in the guideline, especially with "Disney Channel" articles, maybe it was the norm here until I forced the issue. So, the short of it is that realization which you're seeing in these title change nominations! Intrisit (talk) 18:56, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Mast303 I will contest this unless there is strong evidence for the common name, and even then a discussion might benefit the situation ASUKITE 19:27, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Inner789 Based on the above, a discussion would be ideal here. You may click the "discuss" link, fill in your rationale, and click "publish" to continue ASUKITE 18:58, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Changes in primary topic are usually potentially controversial. Start a RM discussion. Mdewman6 (talk) 16:52, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Administrator needed

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.
