To move or rename a Page:

- Click "Rename" to move it to the new location, or to rename it, or "Cancel" to discard the changes.

FAQ
Why can't I see the "Manage / Remove" action in the "More Action Menu"?
You can move or rename a Page if you have the delete right. The delete right can be either specifically given by an administrator, or it can be implied by other rights. For example, as shown in the table, admins automatically have delete rights, and the creator of a Page also automatically has delete rights for that Page. In these cases, you can see additional menu actions.
How is the Page move/rename performed?
The copy is an interactive operation performed asynchronously.
Why don’t I see a progress bar when moving/renaming a Page?
If another job is currently being performed on the Pages you selected, you might see an information box instead of a progress bar. This indicates that your move/rename operation is waiting for the other job to finish. Page Tree Operation Locks prevent multiple long-running operations from being executed on the same Pages simultaneously.
Why am I asked to wait for link indexing when renaming a Page?
Link indexing is still running, the system is discovering and recording all internal links to ensure that references are updated correctly.
