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.

Found The Heroes of Crash in Main and changed it to Webcomic. Don't know if that's big enough to mention here, it's my first namespace fix and I'm just following the instructions.
EDIT: Also moved Rated "A" for Awesome to Western Animation and fixed wicks. Funnily enough that added five wicks from people who thought it WAS moved.

I moved Burrito Bison and associated wicks out of the Main namespace.
Now I'm working on The Annotated Series, but that actually has discussion threads that need to be moved.
^ For moving discussions to namespaced pages, use the "this article needs mod attention" thingy under the Tools menu on the left to drop a line to the moderators, who will hook up the old discussions to the new work/trope page.
All your safe space are belong to TrumpOkay, simple question: what the heck is this?
DirectToVideo.Alvin And The Chipmunks
I'm not aware that "DirectToVideo" is an acceptable namespace in any way or form. Anybody can enlighten me? What would be the correct spot for this article?

They should probably be seperated and put under WesternAnimation.Whatever Each Film Is Named

I was working on Paul Mc Gann's wicks, changing them to Creator.Paul Mc Gann. I created a redirect because it took some time. I'm done now. Should I ask to have the Main.Paul Mc Gann cutlisted?

Main/ redirects are no longer required to be cutlisted if there's no title collision; it says so on the Cutlist page.
And anyway, with 62 inbound links for this wick, such a request would be rejected. The rule is to always keep a redirect if it has more than 10 external links.

Here from How To Move A Page, I'm just posting so I can holler the mods to move the discussion for Stationery Voyagers (it appears to be an Unpublished Work, thus needs moved to Darth Wiki.)
So the How To Move A Page says to tell people about wick moves and whatnot. I moved Elisabeth Sladen to Creator.Elisabeth Sladen and moved all the wicks. I think the Main page was on three indexes (one being Creators In Main), but now it's only in one (Actors); that's weird how it isn't in two?
I must have been seeing things. I thought there were originally three. But if the archive says otherwise, I'm just crazy. I was worried I did something wrong, so I brought it up. Thanks for double checking for me. Is there a way for me to check it myself next time? It's like, every time I have an issue, you're the one to be like, "Actually, no." I haven't thanked you for all that yet, but thanks.
A little reminder of a common problem linked to namespace migrations:
Please, people, when moving an article, do not forget to send a message to the mods asking to move the discussion page alongside if said discussion isn't empty.
This is the one thing most often forgotten when doing a migration. Just as an example, all the Super Sentai shows were moved to the Series/ namespace (not by me), but very few of the discussion pages followed. I've checked them out, and that's 22 discussion pages that needed to be moved afterward.
Any suggestion to increase the awareness of this problem is welcome. Also, don't hesitate to check if namespaced works, even old ones, haven't some discussion left in Main/ and signal them. I can't check the whole Wiki alone.
Should The Pagemaster be moved to Western Animation or Film? The majority of the screentime seems to be animated, but the movie starts and ends with the non-animated kid.

Well, it's not quite clear-cut.
Mostly, for movies or series that mixes animation with live-action, the live-action part is considered to dominate, thus putting them into Film/ or Series/.
However, if the movie is MOSTLY animation with the live-action part just as an intro or a framing device, then it'll fit better in the animation genre, and thus deserve the WesternAnimation/ namespace.
I haven't seen The Pagemaster so I can't tell if it's the case here, although the poster suggests it was tooted mostly as animation.
Many of the Creators are in the Main namespace instead of the Creator namespace. These should all be moved, correct?
Had some time on my hands, so I moved So Weird to Series/ where it belongs, along with all the wicks. The work page proper might need some Zero Context Example cleanup too, but I don't remember nearly enough about the show to fix it myself.
Hello. After somebody moved Love Never Dies to its proper namespace in Theatre, I've been correcting its wicks so it can be moved out of Work Pages in Main. Unfortunately, there's one wick left, and it's in the locked Fallen Creator page, so a head honcho will need to fix that one. Just look under the Theater folder, it's easy to find. Thanks!
Hi, Sapphirea,
the topic to ask for edit to Locked Pages is here

Following up on the previous, the first half of the twentieth century in literature is now done as well—that's everything on Literature of the 1900s through Literature of the 1940s. Also, Comic Literature, although I suspect that index is missing a bunch of pages that should be there.
There's something really satisfying about seeing a whole index with every entry namespaced...
Speaking words of fandom: let it squee, let it squee.
