I'm no power-user, and mostly I do fairly simple stuff with my [wiki](http://kitenet.net/~kyle/family/wiki). + +However, I would like the ability (now) to **rename/move/delete** pages. As part of having a genealogy wiki, I've put name and dates of birth/death as part of the title of each article (so to avoid cases where people have the same name, but are children/cousins/etc of others with that name). However, some of this information changes. For instance, I didn't know a date of death and now I do, or I had it wrong originally, or it turns out someone is still alive I didn't know about. All of these cases leave me with bad article titles. + +So, I can go ahead and move the file to a new page with the correct info, orphan that page, provide a link for the new page if desired, and otherwise ignore that page. But then, it clutters up the wiki and serves no useful purpose. + +Anyway to consider implementing **rename/move/delete** ? I certainly lack the skills to appreciate what this would entail, but feel free to comment if it appears impossible, and then I'll go back to the aforementioned workaround. I would prefer simple rename, however. + +Thanks again to [Joey](http://kitenet.net/~joey) for putting ikiwiki together. I love the program. + +*[Kyle](http://kitenet.net/~kyle/)=* \ No newline at end of file
