Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.
It's not for everything, though. For a list of all the resources for your questions, click here. You can also go to this Directory thread
for ongoing cleanup projects.
You can redirect the current page to the new one, but you'll still need to manually change all the wicks.

Well, got to start now. Thanks for the reply.
Sorry, I can't understand the redirect rules and process (still a newbie who lurks more and works less here). Where can I ask a moderator for help with this problem? Thanks again.
ATT is a pretty good place. Or you can just check out Creating New Redirects.

Yes, it's just that I don't want this page to be send to the red.
Well, create the new page first with the content moved, and then redirect the old title.

I will try it, thanks again!
Sorry, couldn't do it, but thanks anyway. Close this section if you want.
You can just let the redirect do its job and change wicks as you see them, though indexes should be changed immediately so that it displays at the bottom of the page.
Keet cleanup
To OP: Let's try learn by doing :-)
- Here is a red link to start: LightNovel.Bofuri I Dont Want To Get Hurt So Ill Max Out My Defense
- (Punctuation and capital letters are changed via customized title.)
- Go to the old work page and hit the edit button (or view the page source)
- Copy the whole source text (ctrl + A and ctrl + C)
- Start editing the intended new page — the one with the red link (click its edit button)
- Insert the copied source text (ctrl + V)
- Save
- Now you have the new page — Big "YES!"
- It has to be indexed and cross-wicked as any new work page
- Lots of this will be done with replacing wicks leading to the old work page
- Use the function for custom title (this has to be approved by a moderator).
- Go to the original page.
- Start editing it.
- Don't blank it completely! Instead, you remove the source text and insert the link with the redirect to the new page you created: [[redirect:LightNovel/BofuriIDontWantToGetHurtSoIllMaxOutMyDefense]]
- Celebrate. Have a cookie or something you like. :-)
Thank you! As a newbie troper, I can't thank you enough!
Good evening (or night, depending on where you are):
I helped create a long time ago the page for:
I Hate Being In Pain So I Think Ill Make A Full Defense Build
But the official English name as licensed by Funimation is:
"BOFURI: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense"
Now that it premiered today and it was also licensed, I need help to change the name of the page to the official one, is there a way to change the page to the official one (preferably the official short name: Bofuri) AND to make the change appear in all of the pages, or it will be necessary to change it manually in all the pages? Thanks in advance.
