merger proposal

I think they are two articles about the same township. If not the same, one should be a section of the other. Lova Falk talk 15:41, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe that's the case. There is the Township of Serena, GNIS ID 429731, and the unincorporated town of Serena, GNIS ID 418219. Check Google Maps for a map showing the town. Omnedon (talk) 17:09, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Also, check the TopoQuest map which shows both the town and the township. Omnedon (talk) 17:12, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Omnedon. The township and community are two separate places with the same name, and each deserves its own article; it's not customary to merge communities into township articles. TheCatalyst31 ^{Reaction•Creation} 17:31, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
