Template:Move/doc

[purge]

This is the documentation page. It should be transcluded into Template:Move. See Template:Documentation for more information.

This template is used to mark a page for moving to a different name. It is preferable to start a discussion on the talk page of the page when using this template, to prevent potential conflicts.

Pages with this template on are added to Category:Pending move.
