Add more reasons to dropdown
If there's no objections, I request replacing the current contents of this page with This will add some common reasons to the "move page" dropdown choice of reasons. Tested on testwiki.. Thanks. – Novem Linguae (talk) 16:24, 11 January 2023 (UTC)

Some more reasons to dropdown
Hello. I have a few more ideas for some more common reasons.

(and possibly)

These are just some quick ideas I came up with by looking through the move log, and some might not be necessary or need adjusting, but I think more than the current 4 reasons would be good, especially the Requested move and Publish page ones.

 * Support. Thanks for the ideas. Let's fill up this reason dropdown so we don't have to do as much thinking and typing in the future :) – Novem Linguae (talk) 02:11, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
 * ✅ I've added all of these, though I made no effort to organize the current reasons, so if someone thinks they should be reordered, be my guest. =) 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」☎ Dinoguy1000 09:53, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
 * @Dinoguy1000, would you please re-word the "publish" item? Moving a page is not the same as publishing it, even if you move it into the mainspace.  Publishing is when you make the page available to the public.  That happens on every page, and it happens when you click the "Publish page" button, not when you move ("rename") the page.  I would suggest "Move page to mainspace", perhaps with a link to WP:MOVE, as a sensible option, but so long as the result doesn't claim that it's the page mover who published the contents, I'd be happy with anything that works for you.

 * I have no problem with that; when I added these items in the first place, I copied them directly from ' comment above. I also went ahead and removed "page" from the item, to match the "Move to draft" item a bit further down. Further changes can be made without consulting with me first. =) 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」☎ Dinoguy1000 21:15, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
