Creating new versions of wiki pages (updated to the present, but moving the original and all it's history in like 'name of page"_Legacy

Posted by ddrmax 
Hello, After some time out of my work updating some wiki pages (broken videos tags, broken links and updating firmware pages to indicate if their now deprecated) and working in translating them into french. I want to also update some pages like RepRap Wiki - Cost Reduction but I want for the actual version to be linked to the new version as legacy.
What do we have to do to change the name of the actual page to after create a new page with the actual name (so that the new page is linked to the actual url so that everyone clicking that link goes to the new page that has a banner pointing to the old version for legacy purposes.

if it's not possible, it is possible to link to an historic version of that page?

Edit: I've come across the rename function in the wiki, it's the way to go for my need, but your appreciation whether I Link the new page on the old (adding a banner cross referencing without renaming the original page) or the other way around (adding a banner cross referencing with renaming the original page).
Edit 2: Here is the WIP of the Cost Reduction Updated and it's original and legacy version Cost Reduction
