Template:Uw-displaytitle

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by using the DISPLAYTITLE magic word. This functionality is for changing the formatting and presentation of the title only, and does not work to change a page's title to something meaningfully different. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Thank you.

Template documentation follows
Note: the template above may sometimes be partially or fully invisible.
Visit "Template:Uw-displaytitle/doc" to edit its documentation if it is available. (How does this work?)

Usage

• {{subst:Uw-displaytitle}}
• {{subst:Uw-displaytitle|Actual page title}} references a specific actual page title
• {{subst:Uw-displaytitle|Actual page title|Additional text}} adds text onto the end of the message instead of "Thank you"
• {{subst:Uw-displaytitle||Additional text}} or {{subst:Uw-displaytitle|2=Additional text}} also adds text onto the end of the message instead of "Thank you", but doesn't link a page as specified by the actual page title.
• {{subst:Uw-displaytitle|Actual page title|to=Attempted display title}} adds the attempted display title using the to parameter.
• {{subst:Uw-displaytitle|Actual page title|to=Attempted display title|Additional text}} includes both the original page title and attempted display title as well as additional text.

Please remember to substitute the template using {{subst:Uw-displaytitle}} rather than {{Uw-displaytitle}}.

To customize your message, parameters are available; one to add the article name, and one to add additional text at the end of the message. If your param value contains an equal sign (as urls often do), then be sure to explicitly specify the positional parameter by number; i.e., use |1= or |2= followed by the value; e.g., |1=XYZ=Repainting, or |2=https://www.bbc.com/search?q=Kent+weather.
