This article is to be used when an inactive runner is being retired so that a new runner can use the same name.

Instructions

Step 1: Confirm inactivity

Confirm that the existing character Runner is inactive, by whatever standards of inactivity are currently in place.


Step 2: Move old character run history

Go through old runner run history and notate all of the runs. Change runner name in each run to new name.


Step 3: Move Page

Using the "Move" function on Runner 's wiki page, create a new page with the title of Runner_(PlayerName); unselect "Leave a redirect behind."

Note: In the below image, the runner name "Shade" is used as an example.


Step 4: Recreate Runner and add redirect box

Recreate the Runner page. Then at the top of Runner add

{{Roundbox|''RunnerName directs here. If you are looking for the retired [[RunnerName_(PlayerName)|RunnerName as played by Playername]], click here.''}}

.


Step 5: Communicate with requesting player

Let requesting player know that Runner page is now available for their use!
