Line 23: == Overwriting an existing page == You cannot rename a page to the same title as an existing page. Administrators can do this, but only by deleting the existing page first. Moving the existing page out of the way will not help, as it leaves behind a redirect which cannot be overwritten either. In such situations, ask for the pages to be moved at the [[Wikipedia:Requested moves\|move request page]]. ~~== Moving images and categories ==~~ ~~To rename an image, place <code>{{tlx\|rename media\|new name\|reason}}</code> on the page of the file.~~ To rename a category, it is necessary to copy the category's description page to the new name, change every page in that category to be in the new category instead of the old one, then delete the old category. This is time-consuming and should only be done if there is a very good reason to do so. == Categorizing redirects ==
