Hello,

As you know, unless protected, pages can be renamed by registered users.

I wanted to make a reminder for several important thinks to remembed when renaming a page. Another thing is the Template:List. Only use the parameter if there is an actual article (or section, in some cases) about this particular subject. Do not link to redirects that link to the same page as well.
 * First of all, make sure to read this page. It has guidlines for when to rename a page.
 * After moving a page, please check Special:WhatLinksHere to make sure there are no double redirects to the article. A double redirect is a redirect that links to another redirect, and the next redirects won't work.
 * Not all disambiguation pages need an ending of (disambiguation) in the page end. It is used when the page name without the bracket is already taken (like Party Hats (disambiguation) and Party Hats). This is the equivelent for why the ID of an item is added to the article name in brackets only if several items with this name exist.

I assume some of you might find getting used to it hard, but there are lots of double redirects due to renaming pages, and it's important to follow those steps to prevent this.
