Get tips and tricks on how to rename or move pages in MediaWiki. Our blog offers a complete guide to help you update page titles and manage your wiki effectively.
The name of a page holds significant importance in MediaWiki, as pages are typically interconnected through their names. Renaming a page requires MediaWiki to address all existing database links pointing to that page. If you've distributed a link to your page externally, renaming it would render that link invalid.
As a result, MediaWiki refers to this process as "Move" (to designate moving the page to a new title within the database) and offers an automatic redirection feature from the old title to the new one.
There is a special interface for this operation that can be accessed via the Move link in the page tools menu:
Click the menu link and set the new page title in the form field New title. Please, note that you can:
Click Move page button to complete the operation.
