move-page
DestructiveIdempotent
Rename a wiki page to a new title, with options to move its talk page, subpages, and control redirect behavior.
Instructions
Renames a wiki page, moving it — and by default its talk page — to a new title, and returns the old and new titles plus whether a redirect was left behind. By default leaves a redirect at the old title; set leaveRedirect=false to suppress it (requires the suppressredirect right, otherwise the redirect is left regardless). Fails if the source page does not exist, if the target title already exists (unless it is a redirect and ignoreWarnings is set), or if the authenticated user lacks the move permission. Moving a File page additionally requires the file-move permission.
Input Schema
TableJSON Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| fromTitle | Yes | Current title of the wiki page to move | |
| toTitle | Yes | New title to move the page to | |
| comment | No | Reason for the move | |
| moveTalk | No | Also move the associated talk page | |
| moveSubpages | No | Also move subpages, where the namespace allows subpages | |
| leaveRedirect | No | Leave a redirect at the old title. Suppressing it requires the suppressredirect right; without that right MediaWiki leaves the redirect regardless. | |
| ignoreWarnings | No | Proceed past move warnings, e.g. when the target is an existing redirect. Moving over a non-redirect page still fails. | |
| wiki | No | Wiki to target, as a key from the mcp://wikis/ resources (e.g. en.wikipedia.org), or the full mcp://wikis/ URI. Omit to use the default wiki. |
