Description Purodha Blissenbach 2008-03-13 21:31:11 UTC
Special:MovePage should be listed in Special:Specialpages
so as to ease finding it from other places than the page you
want to move, or rename.

Entering Special:MovePage from Special:Specialpages, or
generally without having an existing page selected,
should simply ask for a page name to be moved,and then
proceed as usual.

Why would you want to do that? it would make page move vandalism easier.
Comment 2 AlexSm 2008-03-14 14:34:32 UTC
FYI: according to my reworked 
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Special_page
the following special pages are "not listed":
Movepage
Captcha
Confirmemail
Log out
CreateAccount 
Mypage
Mytalk
Comment 3 Brion Vibber 2008-03-14 17:15:15 UTC
The move page form is task-oriented, and designed to be reached directly from the tab on a page. The others above are also task-oriented, to be reached directly from their tasks, and are not general query pages.

Resolving this as WONTFIX.
