Moving website pages

If a new wiki is found and WikiApiary has already a page about another wiki with the same name, how we should proceed? Does a page move will suffice to move the existing page to the new name (with the distinct suffix), or that would cause any problems (because of leftover redirects)? I'm asking because of [1] and Puzzles. --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) 17:30, 19 August 2014 (UTC)

It is no problem to move an existing entry to a new name. However it is very important that also the subpages for a website are moved! In general it is probably a good idea to just add the wiki with Puzzles 2 and leave the moving stuff to the admins in case of uncertainty. Cheers --[[kgh]] (talk) 06:53, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
Thanks! Since I can't move pages without leaving redirects, I guess I'd opt to leave the moving stuff to admins in case I find a similar situation. --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) 09:20, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
Ah, good point about the redirects! Thank you for being here! Cheers --[[kgh]] (talk) 13:04, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
