Moving pages
I know I'm not the person you're asking, but I'll still answer. The reason you can't move pages is because you are not autoconfirmed yet; this will happen one week after your account was created (this case being the 26th) and have made at least ten edits. There will be a "move" tab available at the top of the page then. The page you want to move however, does warrant an identifier since the name is shared with another "Steve".

Naming
If you're annoyed with how the wiki handles naming, you could go to either Mario Wiki on Fandom or to Mariopedia. Both handle naming based on the English names and, well, common sense (e.g. are they green Cheep Cheeps or Deep Cheeps? this can be identified from their behavioral patterns). In my opinion, the Japanese naming can be listed as trivia points whereas on a Japanese wiki it would make more sense to sort subjects based on Japanese names. Things can often be different in localization, and I would not count out subjects being the same in one region but different in another based on naming alone. 104.129.57.143 23:41, May 29, 2022 (EDT)
- Then why not post this on EVERY SINGLE OTHER user's page who believes we should separate based on Japanese names? PrincessPeachFan (talk) 09:35, May 30, 2022 (EDT)

Naming issues are going to always be here if we want to aim for the most accurate representation of things, and there's no point in trying to make a one-size-fits-all for splits and merges(there's times where Japanese names do dictate them and times where they don't).
