"Template:Move-multi" इहाँ अनुप्रेषित बाटे। अन्य अरथ खातिर, देखल जाय Template:Move-multi (बहुअर्थी)।

Template:Requested move, with the assistance of User:RMCD bot, populates Wikipedia:Requested moves § Current discussions.

This template is substituted for input validation and archiving reasons (so a permanent record of the proposed page name can be placed on the talk page).

Edits to this template, and Module:Requested move, which it invokes, can adversely affect RMCD bot. Please check edits with the bot operator before implementation.

Usage

Specified new name

Use this template to tag articles with a controversial or potentially controversial move request. For uncontroversial (technical) requests, use {{subst:RMassist}}.

Please note that unlike {{article for deletion}}, the discussion for a page move must take place on the talk page, not on Wikipedia:Requested moves.

Add this template at the bottom of the talk page of the page that you want to be moved. It should be formatted like this:

{{subst:Requested move|NewName |reason= Why}}

Where:

• NewName = your proposed new name for the page, i.e., the name which the page should be renamed or moved to
• Why = your rationale for the proposed page name change, ideally referring to applicable naming convention policies and guidelines, and providing evidence in support where appropriate

This will create a template (see Template:Requested move/dated) in a new section on the talk page, and links to the old page and new page. For example:

{{subst:Requested move|Template:Move |reason= Move was the original name of this template, and we should revert to that.}}

will create:

स्थान्तरण अनुरोध 20 जुलाई 2025

Template:Requested move → Template:Move – Move was the original name of this template, and we should revert to that. Username (talk) 19:54, 20 जुलाई 2025 (UTC)

User:RMCD bot will copy the move information to WP:RM, usually within 20 minutes.

Unspecified new name

If you're unsure about what the best new name is, use a question mark for the new name.

{{subst:Requested move|? |reason= The name should be either "move" or "rename", let's discuss which is better.}}

creates:

स्थान्तरण अनुरोध 20 जुलाई 2025

Template:Requested move → ? – The name should be either "move" or "rename", let's discuss which is better. Username (talk) 19:54, 20 जुलाई 2025 (UTC)

Custom header

You may also ask the template to override the default header.

{{subst:Requested move|Template:Rename|reason= Rename is a more intuitive term.|header= इसका नाम बदलें?}}

creates:

इसका नाम बदलें?

Template:Requested move → Template:Rename – Rename is a more intuitive term. Username (talk) 19:54, 20 जुलाई 2025 (UTC)

Multiple related move requests

Related moves should be combined into a single request. This is particularly applicable when changing a primary topic, which generally requires moving at least a disambiguation page and another related page. Additional proposed moves should be formatted like this:

{{subst:Requested move|NewName |reason= Why
|current2 = Current title of page 2
|new2 = New title for page 2
|current3 = Current title of page 3
|new3 = New title for page 3
.
.
|currentN = Current title of page N
|newN = New title for page N
}}

Where:

• NewName = your proposed new name for page 1, i.e., the page whose talk page is being used for the discussion
• N = the number of pages which are proposed for moves

Adding survey and discussion subsections

Use the code |talk=yes to append the subsections in {{Requested move/talk}}.

Suppressing the signature or the section header

This template automatically adds a signature to the requested move reason. To suppress the signature, you can use the code |sign=no. To suppress the section header, |header=no.

Default behavior

• If neither parameter {{{1}}} or {{{new1}}} are specified, then ? – an unspecified destination to be decided on the talk page – is assumed
• If neither parameter {{{2}}} or {{{reason}}} are specified, the default text is "Please place your rationale for the proposed move here." This text should be edited to replace it with an actual rationale for the requested move.

Deprecated parameters

• Parameter current1, which was formerly used by Template:Move-multi (documentation), has been deprecated and is ignored.
• Use of unnamed parameter {{{2}}} is not encouraged, because an unnamed parameter doesn't support reasons containing an equals sign (often in web links), due to MediaWiki bug 14235http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14235.
