Is this task a possible duplicate of T231783: [Regression] Move Flow boards is not possible for an admin on fawiki? Also, while I’m not certain, it seems like "fa:ویکی‌پدیا:درخواست راهنمایی/Flow" may have just been moved to that title (from "fa:ویکی‌پدیا:درخواست راهنمایی") as a result of T378827: Run Flow migration script at *Phase 1* wikis.

Welcome to Flow, the graveyard of broken windows: ....

It's an intended (and working) feature that you need flow-create-board to move a Flow page to a title where Flow isn't the default content model. This is weird, but overall a good thing. wmf-config/CommonSettings.php contains the following code:

	// On wikis that have Flow as a beta feature or in an entire namespace,
	// give sysops the right to create and move Flow boards
	if ( $wgFlowEnableOptInBetaFeature || $wmgFlowNamespaces ) {
		$wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['flow-create-board'] = true;
	}

This was added in 2017 for T175934, prior to which it appears only WMF staff and stewards could move Flow boards, and does what it purports.

Flow is enabled on the following wikis (https://github.com/wikimedia/operations-mediawiki-config/blob/0ed8882c9da107389bba386c3087893546b4b9ae/dblists/flow.dblist):

Of those, $wmgFlowEnableOptInBetaFeature (which doesn't actually enable the Beta feature, but means the skeleton for it is present) is set to True on:

Flow-create-board is manually granted to users on:

mediawikiwiki

viwikisource

This seems to mean that on the remaining 20 wiki with Flow it has never been possible for anyone other than stewards or WMF staff to create Flow boards:

Spot-checking that analysis shows it is correct - all of them except ptwikibooks have few enough Flow boards that it's plausible every single one was manually created, and ptwikibooks seems to only have Flow boards from the LQT->Flow conversion.

This may or may not be worth fixing. In the mean time someone in the Staff, Steward, Sysadmin, or Global Flow creator global groups can do the move.

Thanks for this analysis. With this in mind, what is the next step? Should we add fawiki to $wmgFlowEnableOptInBetaFeature?

Probably someone should change the code in CommonSettings.php to unconditionally grant flow-create-board to admins.

But I'll leave that up to the teams actually doing Flow deprecation.

I didn't notice this task until now.

Now that the T378827: Run Flow migration script at *Phase 1* wikis is done, all pages are theoretically moved as sub-pages. How many pages need to be moved manually? I can perform these moves, which would take less time than granting the right to the admins (which was supposed to be already granted).

Adding fawiki to $wmgFlowEnableOptInBetaFeature won't be useful as it only targets individual talk pages that were activated through the beta feature.

@Huji, a side question, as I'm not certain of this part of your initial request:

Try moving fa:ویکی‌پدیا:درخواست راهنمایی/Flow to the more appropriate name "ویکی‌پدیا:درخواست راهنمایی"

As I understand it, you want to move fa:ویکی‌پدیا:درخواست راهنمایی/Flow to fa:ویکی‌پدیا:درخواست راهنمایی. I want to make sure that you are not trying to revert the archiving process we applied to remove Flow from the wikis.
