There is no %WIKIWORD% directive to implement a rename, this would be needed if this functionality were to be exposed to a WikiControlLanguage

This is a FatCgiScript. To rectify, consider the following:

1. Move routines that implement the rename to a module in the backend, perhaps StoreDotPm:
   1. sub findReferringPages (would need passing values rather than the query object)
   2. sub gotLocks
   3. sub check (but perhaps better named as okayToRename)
2. Leave these in RenameCgiScript:
   1. newTopicScreen, setVars, moreRefs

in the process of doing DeleteAccount I am going to move some of the functions into StoreDotPm
