I thought I'd draw attention to a desire of mine for **ikiwiki**. 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.
The MediaWiki moving/renaming mechanism is pretty nice. It's easy to get a list of pages that point to the current page. When renaming a page it sticks a forwarding page in the original place. The larger the size of the wiki the more important organization tools become.
I see the need for:
* a new type of file to represent a forwarding page
