Wick Migration

Go To

Some tropers (myself included) have been moving works from the Main/ namespace to the appropriate namespace. Unfortunately, some of these moves were done without the wicks being corrected to reflect the new namespaces.

There are more wicks than any one person could handle, so I'm posting here in hopes of getting help. Here is a list of pages that have been moved and need their wicks corrected. (Let me know if you spot any others, and I'll add them to the list.)

EDIT: The list has been moved to Administrivia.Wick Namespace Migration.

Add completed moves in Completed Namespace Migrations.

Finished moving the last of the wicks for the Shelter video game and turned it into a redirect to the disambig page.

Need to redirect the base names to their targets, but I'll form a Disambig so nevermind, they go there.

Thanks for making the disambig page!

ETA: Moved a fanfic and literature page that had the same name to Fanfic.By Any Other Name 2020 and Literature.By Any Other Name 2013 respectively. Wicks all taken care of.

Moved different works with the same name of Stray: a video game, a novel, a comic book miniseries, and a fanfic. I've already dealt with the wicks for the comic book and a fanfic.

If anyone feels like sparing the time, there's a lot of wicks here that still need to be moved, since the Let's Play namespace is deprecated and the redirect should eventually be cut.

LetsPlay.Dream SMP (237 wicks) -> WebVideo.Dream SMP

I use this bookmarklet while on Related Pages to turn the links into new tab generators. Just make sure your browser doesn't move you to new tabs automatically?

javascript: document.querySelectorAll('.no-bullets').forEach((link) => link.outerHTML = link.innerHTML.replaceAll('">', '?action=edit" target=_blank>'))


The redlink in the banner should be cut, right?

I moved Film.The Last War to Film.The Last War 1961 to split it from the fanfic, except said fanfic page was cut for being a bash fest. Should I undo said change.

Nah, leave it. The name sounds too easy to have no other users.

It's an official work vs. fan work situation, which complicates matters.

I moved Post Scriptum to Squad 44, owing to the game's development being restarted and it being given a rebrand.

Moving Not Always Right subpages A to F and G to L to letters A to D and E to L respectively, as I noticed the A to F page was getting long enough to warrant moving E and F examples to the second page.

The G to L page has a Discussion page, so that'll have to be moved by a mod to the E to L page.

I used redirects. Should I have cutlisted the old pages instead?

Alright, we've got a huge new task on our hands: Moving Game Consoles and Operating Systems from Useful Notes/ to Platform/

The ones in need of moving are listed on Wick Namespace Migration

If you've moved all the wicks of a page to Platform/, please place the page on Completed Migrations — Platform In order for the finished ones to be marked.

[up][up] Character.Try Another Story Playable Characters' main characters sheet, Characters.Madoka Magica Try Another Story, didn't have enough content to justify a subpage to begin with, so instead of moving Character.Try Another Story Playable Characters to Characters.Try Another Story Playable Characters, I just merged it back onto the main sheet. The Character/ page has been cutlisted.

Character.Bot Types -> Characters.Bot Types

(Please note, this character page is a subpage for Botworld Adventure, with the only character listed on the main character page being the game's protagonist. I don't know much about the game itself, but if it's a Mon-styled game, there are likely more characters beyond the player character that will fill up the main page in time. As such, I'd hold off on merging the subpage with the main page for now.)

Edit - 4/16/23 (yeah, the day after my last one, which is why this is an edit to my preexisting post rather than a wholly new one)

Webvideo.Coronaweirdmageddon -> WebVideo.Coronas Weirdmageddon (it's one of those Pooh's Adventure-type deals)

[up][up] I merged that page because I think 15k bytes is very short for a character subpage. It doesn't have the potential to reach more than 100 k in the short/medium term.

[up] Use the page history move thread for both requests.
