For sake of simplicity, you don't need to copypaste text from old page
to new (or vice versa) - just add redirection. For example, user Peter
has old page [[PeterLemenkov]]. He wants to merge the former and the
latter. For doint this he just edits page [[Peter]] and adds the only
message:
#REDIRECT [[PeterLemenkov]]
Thats all - every visitor of page [[Peter]] will be redirected to
[[PeterLemenkov]]. See latest edits - I already fixed som pages.
Do you mean User:Lemenkov (or whatever your FAS user ID is)?
What I think you are looking to do is to do a ''move'', which is a tab
at the top of the page when you are logged in. This sets up a redirect
automatically. The rest of this is described here:

* Rich set of special pages.
Thanks much for pointing out these feature pages to folks. MediaWiki
has many Special: pages that are great assistance to a community
documentation effort. Riding on MediaWiki/Wikipedia's experience in
pre-built wiki tooling is another benefit of this migration.
