Hi Zixuan. Please do not touch the Main page. While it is possible to move pages in wiki, it leaves a trail of redirects that quickly become a jungle, and someone needs to manage that jungle.
Thank you.

- Zixuan, Tekojo has already explained why above. Here are a few more reasons from me:
- When a visitor goes to https://wiki.qt.io/, they are taken to "Main", not "Mainpage". If you move the page, then visitors to https://wiki.qt.io/ will see a redirect notice at the top. This is not nice.
- You say that your moves are "constructive" and "more clear", but I disagree. "Main" is already very clear, and "Mainpage" is not a proper English word.
- I don't see a good reason to move the page.
