            Bug ID: 71414
           Summary: Moving index should optionally re-align extant Page: s
                    to new location.
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: ProofreadPage

Recently at English Wikisource, I noted that some Index: pages had generic
titles that were less clear than they could be.

The first stage in resolving this was to get the file renamed at commons ,
which is easy.

Next is to get the Index: page moved at English Wikisource. Again this is
relativly straightforward.)

What is Not currently straightforward is the transfer of transcribed contents
of associated Page: 's, which although it can be done manually is time
consuming and error prone. 

I would therefore like to request that the extension provide an option when
moving an Index: page, that any associated Page:'s  are also moved.

When moving  Index:oldname.ext to Index:newname.ext  there is an option for
moving alls pages of the form Page:oldname.ext/n to be moved Page:newname.ext/n 
automatically when the index page is moved.

I appreciate that this wouldn't resolve the issue of broken links and
transcluded ranges, but if suitable redirects were left temporaily in place I
don't see a major concern.)
