They should be merged as the companies sole purpose is to mine Baltic amber, and it is already discussed IN the article here.--Kevmin§23:04, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Kevmin: Any evidence of the non-notability of the company? The article has four sources so far, do you have problems with any of them? And could you stop shouting words at random? It's quite annoying.--eh bien mon prince (talk) 15:30, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The four sources are not about the combine, but about Baltic amber. The Aljazeeria article mentions the combine once (article is on the amber not the company) the ABC has one small section on selling to china, same with the Prime artice. that leaves only the Russia beyond the headlines article, which again is about the amber and not the company.--Kevmin§17:25, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge. The company stub is little more than a promotional piece now, if further material is added it can be split if needed. Vsmith (talk) 18:17, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The company clearly meets WP:ORG (signnificant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources), so how is it not notable? I have added more sources that discuss the company more directly - there are literally hundreds of them, if only someone cares to look for them.--eh bien mon prince (talk) 19:42, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Disagree, a mine is not the same as the product mined in the mine. Baltic Amber is world famous and its page lists fauna found in the amber, the characteristics and details. Kaliningrad is just a part of the Baltic and this mine is not the same as the amber mined there. There is enough content in either article to keep them separate and no good reason to merge them, so leave them be. That both articles may be up for improvement, sure, but then focus on that, not just merging them. Tisquesusa (talk) 00:12, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I did NOT say it was abandoned, STOP inappropriately removing the merge tag until an UNINVOLVED editor closes it one way or another.--Kevmin§20:36, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Your ignoring the caveats in my post if and still doesnt function as an article on that company. So the merge is still relevant. Its not up to you to close this merge--Kevmin§20:45, 29 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - keep 'em separate. The company is more than a century old and attracts a number of superlatives ("only official amber mine in Russia", "world's biggest enterprise for the mining and processing of amber"). Seems well worth an article, and has okay sourcing. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 04:39, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose: merging the articles would be like Wikipedia claiming that Baltic amber can be found only in the Kaliningrad region, which obviously isn't true, and marketed only by the Kaliningrad Amber Combine, which obviously also isn't true Striking my first oppose since I seem to have got it wrong, believeing that the merge should go the other way, but still opposing, since the article about the Kaliningrad Amber Combine needs to stand on its own, and prove to be notable enough for a stand alone article; merging the articles would mean that just about any other company selling Baltic amber, but not being notable eenough for a stand alone article, should also be included. And this article should be about Baltic amber as such, not about companies selling it... - Tom | Thomas.W talk09:42, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
