Merge

The merge template I slapped on this article] is really a courtesy, because the article as currently written is nothing more than a cut and paste from Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity and from wikisource:Executive_Order_13799. Please fix it if you don't want to see this page go back to being a redirect. Sometimes the sky is blue (talk) 15:00, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sometimes the sky is blue - the WP:MERGE guidance is that the discussion note be at the destination article. I will start such a thread at the TALK for Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity, an direct things there. Cheers, Markbassett (talk) 22:29, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sometimes the sky is blue - The other page doesn't want this merged in. It's been over a month since any input at TALK for Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity about merging so I have closed the discussion there, and so will remove the merge tag here. The general desire there seems to lack adding material to that article from here. More a general expressing of feeling that this article was not needed or AfD instead, as your own part of the discussion recommended. But while I was willing to help start the documenting part of WP:MERGE discussion, I'm bowing out and cleaning up since I'm not inclined to go further into starting an AfD and not going to take on the Wikipedia:Proposed mergers to match Dr. Fleischman's mention of it being contentious as I saw no contention.

Provisions section need

The article "Provisions" could use commentary and paraphrasing key points per cites. Right now it's too literal and just repeating the document without making it and the meaning easier to understand. The more normal examples for EO would seem to be Executive Order 13780 or Executive Order 12968 and so on that describe what the EO does or parts of it are.
