Page mover

I would like to request page mover rights in order to properly test new features for page movers in my rmCloser user script. TheTVExpert (talk) 21:27, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I have been frequently moving pages for a while now and the redirects created from these moves has been causing me pains (as a college student), since I was not able to CSD-G7 some of these redirects I have made. And this problem is even more annoying than it was while I'm a WikiProject AfC participant and as a new page reviewer (in a trial run - round robin moves are probably necessary in case there is some page that have drafts which got published without getting accepted by AfC). This is why I'm requesting this right.
By the way as I'm requesting this right I had followed these formalities: I have been here for 6 months, had over 3000 edits this year, no behavioral blocks over the last six months, and I had demonstrated experience moving pages within guidelines. SMB99thx my edits! 22:59, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I've been trying to improve the articles for the towns and villages in the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh lately - a list that I've expanded to contain all the urban and rural communities of the breakaway Republic of Artsakh in Nagorno-Karabakh can be found here: List of cities and towns in Artsakh. There is currently an issue with the majority of the article names not being based on their (most likely) common names but instead being based on their official names in the majority of cases. There is currently a move discussion going on, see here: [1] and because of the contentious nature of the matter, I've also asked for some advice regarding the matter from an administrator: [2]
There are currently many redirect pages for alternative names of the localities, and after attempting some uncontroversial/technical moves lately - I've not been able to do so, since there are redirect pages blocking such moves. Considering the amount of articles (100+) to move if consensus is secured, it would help greatly if I was given the right to move the articles myself, instead of having to list every village that I'm unable to move on WP:RMT.
Regarding meeting the granting guidelines: I've been registered on Wikipedia since 2008, made 5,700+ edits [3], and I have not committed any 3RR violations or been blocked in the past 6 months [4] [5]. Here are a couple of move request discussions I've taken part in: [6] [7] [8] [9]

I've been using WP:RM/T quite a bit recently. There's been a cleanup campaign of non-notable place stubs in the US going on recently, which has ended with a lot of situations where there's a one-entry dab page or a redirect in the way when an article should be at the base title. Me being able to perform round-robin page moves to get the article to the base title when appropriate will reduce the load on the technical requests part of the requested moves venue.
