Looks like it’s working!  Thank you!  That should get me started nicely!  I’ll definitely be sure to check out the wikitech-l mailing list for any of my non-api questions.

Thanks again to everyone!

Well you can just use Title::moveTo() directly.

Yes, this. It's rarely necessary and often a mistake to use FauxRequest to call the local wiki's API. And using curl to hit the local wiki is likely even worse.

I figured there was something like that I could use, but wasn’t sure if I’d be able to figure it out.  (remember, is noob)

I’m guessing it would be something along the lines of

Title::moveTo	(	$param2,
		$auth = true,
		$reason = $param3,
		$createRedirect = true
	)	;

Title::moveTo isn't a static method. You'd do something like this:

  $oldTitle = Title::newFromText( $param1 );

  $newTitle = Title::newFromText( $param2 );

  // Error checking here

  $oldTitle->moveTo( $newTitle, true, $param3, true );

  // More error checking here

If you need additional help, you might want to try the wikitech-l mailing list, or ask on IRC (#mediawiki on freenode).
