I'm trying to move a page, for the Webcomic Shiniez to Sunstone. The original page was named Shiniez after the author, because at the time he couldn't think of a title for his comic. Now his comic has a name — Sunstone.

This is the first time I've tried moving a page, so I think I might have screwed up a few steps. Also might need to have an admin move some discussion.

You forgot to turn the old page into a redirect to the new one. Blank the old page, replacing it with [[redirect:Webcomic/{{Sunstone}}]], and start fixing wicks. You can check wicks (pages that link to any given page) by clicking on the "related to" button on any page. Here's Shiniez's.

How about the sub-pages? Do I need to blank and redirect those as well?

Ah, yes, you're right. Forgot about that part. Same process, just make sure they point to the right spot. Funny/{{Shiniez}} needs to point to Funny/{{Sunstone}}, for example.
