Encyclopedic overview

A page can usually be renamed if the existing title is incorrect or needs to be changed; this is done by moving a page (also commonly referred to as performing a move).

You should perform a proper page move by following the instructions at § How to move a page. If you expect the page move to be controversial, or if you encounter a technical barrier preventing you from performing it yourself, you can request that someone else move the page at Wikipedia:Requested moves.
