Move links is a script that allows you to automatically change links, transclusions and redirects to a page to point to the new page after a move. To use, move a page. On the confirmation screen select which pages to change then click submit. The script will only change 500 pages from each of the following categories: redirects; templates; pages in other namespaces; pages that transclude the selected page. Non-extended-confirmed users are limited to 50 pages.

In some cases, the script cannot find any links to change on a page. In this case it will purge the page links cache (this has the same effect as a null edit). However, you may need to fix some links, for example in hatnotes.

To install, add {{subst:iusc|User:Danski454/move-links.js}} to your common.js.

This script has only had limited testing in the vector skin, so may contain bugs. You are responsible for any edits made with this script.
