You can ask for the page and its subpages to be moved in this forum thread.

Edit: Fixed a typo.

Thanks for pointing me here. I might wait to get this done as Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea is used in one of the Japanese trailers in Latin script, and I don't know if there's a rule saying the page has to be on the American title.

We use the most recent English translation for works originally in other languages, including titles. Troping Works Created in Other Languages covers how we handle this, including what to do if there's more than one English translation (if different English-speaking countries received different translations and/or if a work was given a new translation in a country that received a previous translation).

Good to know. That does mean Ponyo should be its name then.

That being said, the forum you linked mentions that the wicks, indexes, and custom title are still the responsibility of the person requesting the move. I don't know if I will be able to handle all the wicks myself, so I would still appreciate if there were a way for someone to do it for me (assuming the rules on that forum haven't changed since then).

Best way to get assistance would probably be adding it to Wick Cleaning Projects for additional visibility.

I don't actually have any Bumblebee icons, I just think the nickname is funny.

Thank your for your suggestion.

I think I have a solution worked out; hopefully those pages and the wicks should be moved in no time.
