If you want to move/rename a page, click the move tab at th top of the page. Enter the new name you want for the page and the reason if you want and then click the move page button. The old page will be turned into a redirect page and a new page will be made with the name you want and all the same text. I would then go to the double redirects page if you see any double redirects on the page, click them and fix the links on that page so they link to the new name. An other way to move/rename a page is to click the edit tab on the page, copy all of the text, and paste it into a text file you made on your computer. Then delete the page and make a new page with the name you want. Copy the text from the text file and paste it into the new page and then save the page. Then go to the broken redirects page and click the links on it to go to the pages that linked to the old page that you deleted. Change the broken links on those pages to link to the new page instead of the old page and you are done.
