For merger proposals. Changes "deletion" to "merging with target".

Page nameoptional
Additional wikitext to merge messagemore_merge

To add additional wikitext to |merge=. E.g. |more_merge=and [[target2]], and [[target2]] — linking and punctuation needs to be added manually in this parameter (which begins immediately after the value of |merge= with a space character between it and the value of |more_merge=). If the merge targets all share the same talk page, you can use the special value |merge=self to just output "merging" without specifying template names.
