How to undo a page move?

After moving a page in XWiki, the old URL now redirects users to the new URL of the page. I’d like to undo this page move so that the content is only available at the old URL and the new URL is available to use for a different page. How do I remove this redirect behavior?

From my experience moving / renaming back the page to the old location will do the trick. Then create a new page under your new location.

It will unless when moving the page, "Create an automatic redirect " was checked.
In this case the old location is kept hidden and an XWiki.RedirectClass class is added, pointing to the new location.
If you want to reuse the old location, the best is to delete this hidden page.
