An often encountered hurdle for new editors is that they can't find out how to move a page. Generally they ask how to "change the title". Apparently - and understandably - in their mental model, the title of a page is part of the page. It would be nice if VE could accommodate that model. For that I suggest * Make the page title editable * If the new page title is a valid title, move the page to that location ** If the move fails, notify of the failure to automatically change the title, and link to the documentation of the move functionality, suggesting to do it manually. * If the new page title isn't a valid title, insert a {{DISPLAYTITLE}} element to the page.
Hmm. I like this idea. Could get a bit complicated where "sometimes" it is moving the page, and "sometimes" it's setting the {{DISPLAYTITLE}}, and it's not clear which is which. Also, moving mid-edit might be complicated on the back-end? MW relies on the title of a page /way/ too much. Something to watch for when we implement.
