{{helpme}} I dream of horses t !helper

Hi there, I need some help. I need to change the title name of a wikipedia page. It is called Godfrey_Hirst_Pty_Ltd and it should be Godfrey Hirst Carpets

I could not find the original logins for this wikipedia page so I created a new account Named GodfreyHirst and I think perhaps that one should have been Godfrey Hirst Carpets. I would like to basically transer all of the content from the incorrect titled page to a new one. Are you able to help?

You started a requested move on the article's talk page. The process, once you did that, is that the discussion remains open until an independent third party closes it after a week. It was relisted so it is not really ripe for closing right now but will wend its way in the natural course to the current section at WP:RM and someone will close it. If they close it as move, then they will move the article as requested. In other words, your request here is in effect to run roughshod over the discussion process you initiated. We never transfer the content to a new title by copying and pasting by the way. That immediately creates a copyright violation since it divorces the content from its contribution history, whereas moving it retains the page history.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose.

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice. Thank you. --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 15:06, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
