Wikipedia:Proposed article mergers/Archive 2019

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Requests answered in December 2019

Merge Yodelling Song into Lovers in the City. The article on Yodelling Song does not have much information in it over and above what is already in the article on the album, and is headed by a tag saying it may not meet Wikipedia's general notability guidelines. Vorbee (talk) 09:02, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

Merge Wonderful Shadow into Lovers in the City. The single only reached Number 198 in the U.K. Singles Chart, so I do not know whether it is notable enough for a standalone article, but probably deserves a mention in the article from which this single comes. Vorbee (talk) 18:37, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

Merge Yog-Sothoth to Cthulhu Mythos deities I made an effort to find reliable sources that discuss Yog-Sothoth. Unfortunately, there are not many that are not already in the references section. It doubtful that this article could be improved beyond its current state. Furthermore, the majority of this article is plot-related information; there is little analysis of Yog-Sothoth's real-world significance. >>>Discussion Here<<<Susmuffin Talk 23:02, 9 December 2019 (UTC)

Merge (Initiated 1912 days ago on 28 August 2019) Please review and close the ancient Talk:Donajowsky#Article merge discussion. The actual merge was already performed, it remains only to turn it into redirect, objected by another user without giving any reasons. Staszek Lem (talk) 00:45, 18 December 2019 (UTC)

Merge Greater Syria into Syria (region). The two articles cover the same concept. Discussion is at this link. Thanks. Onceinawhile (talk) 21:16, 18 November 2019 (UTC)

Merge Political repression in North Korea to Human Rights in North Korea Taewangkorea (talk) 21:09, 26 November 2019 (UTC)

Merge The consensus is to merge:

Humanist Generation (Strauss-Howe Theory)
Reprisal Generation
Liberty Generation
Republican Generation
Gilded Generation (Strauss–Howe theory)
Missionary Generation

to Strauss–Howe generational theory per the discussion. The merge proposal has been opened for over 7 months and is ready for closure. Someone963852 (talk) 01:17, 10 November 2019 (UTC)

Merge Mars (Doctor Who) into Mars in fiction. Mars (Doctor Who) appears to be little more than fancruft. If this article has any useful content, then it belongs here. >>>Discussion Here<<<Susmuffin Talk 08:28, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

Merge Phone surveillance into Cellphone surveillance. These cover the same overall content, and both are languishing pages despite being a very societally relevant topic. This is my first attempt at a merger so please feel feel to correct my process or conclusions if you disagree.Tecuixin (talk) 15:26, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

Merge Peter Machin (footballer) into Peter Mackin; dated: October 2019. Proposer's Rationale: Peter Mackin is the player's correct name, as confirmed by the CWGC. Beatpoet (talk) 13:08, 31 October 2019 (UTC)

Merge studio craft into american craft. These two articles are speaking on the same subject and I do not feel there is a merit for two articles on the same subject. I have gone through the merge procedures and started a discussion pinging the original article creators. Terasaface (talk) 05:50, 15 October 2019 (UTC)

Merge List of Eliteserien champions into List of Norwegian football champions. Both articles list the exact same information, but the latter has more valid sources and the former has a more simple design. >>>Discussion here<<< KingSkyLord (talk | contribs) 22:27, 30 September 2019 (UTC)

Merge Proposed Article Name: Bengali temple architecture

Reason: Bunch of Wikipedia:Stubs without no big hope of expansion and about one and only topic i.e Bengali temple architecture — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2a0a:a546:2372:0:ec50:65df:6661:9426 (talkcontribs) 22:32, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

Merge Chronic gastritis into Gastritis. The two articles cover much of the same content. Walidou47 (talk) 20:50, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

Merge Category:Films about street gangs into Category:Gang films. This unnecessary distinction only seems to cause more problems than it solves. I think most people would assume that a gang is a street gang unless otherwise concretely specified. With this unnecessary distinction, one would have to ask by what criteria and by what authority a street gang would be legitimized into another type of gang. That's a lot of ambiguity and the ability to answer these questions definitively seems outside of the scope of the capabilities of Wikipedia. --Nicholas0 (talk) 19:36, 5 December 2019 (UTC)

Requests answered in October 2019

Merge Whipple Van Buren Phillips into H. P. Lovecraft. Whipple Van Buren Phillips does not seem to be independently notable, as all of the reliable sources that I could find are biographies of his grandson or genealogical documents. >>>Discussion Here<<<Susmuffin Talk 05:20, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

Merge the article Acceptance mark into the article on credit cards, as the topic of the former article may not meet WP:GNG, as alerted at the top of it. Both articles have been tagged with either {{Merge to}} or {{Merge from}}. Click here to discuss the proposed merge. --69.160.29.139 (talk) 11:00, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

 Working Closed as consensus reached to merge. @Czar: or other interested editor should proceed with a "redirect with possibilities." GenQuest "Talk to Me" 17:08, 11 October 2019 (UTC)

Not usually editing Wikipedia, but I found that Powder box treats the same as Powder flask. I would perhaps just redirect the stub Powder box and merge the Wikidata, and add the Wikimedia Commons box for commons:Category:Powder boxes to Powder flask, but then again there is commons:Category:Gunpowder flasks overlapping with the former and I have to point out that there is to be done something on Commons too. Fay Freak (talk) 01:40, 4 October 2019 (UTC)

 Done What's to merge, really? It's only one sentence. Redirect done. Commons is ok - there are two large boxes, not personal ones, and boxers is a sub of flasks. Johnbod (talk) 03:18, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
 Done GenQuest "Talk to Me" 16:11, 11 October 2019 (UTC)

Merge Italian six-hour clock and Thai six-hour clock into Six-hour clock, as both articles are representing the same thing. --Soumyabrata (talksubpages) 06:44, 18 September 2019 (UTC)

 Not done: these were disambiguated for a reason. Two differing systems of time keeping, with one starting 6 hours before the other. Feel free to try being BOLD with a merger. GenQuest "Talk to Me" 06:08, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

Merge Gwynne Gilford to Chris Pine#Early life. It's quite obvious that she doesn't meet the notability guidelines but it's not worth deleting completely. If I boldly merged it myself inevitably someone would undo it. Trillfendi (talk) 20:51, 1 August 2019 (UTC)

Merge New Conservatism (China) into Neoauthoritarianism (China). New Conservatism is now recognised as a temporary rebranding of Neoauthoritarianism, and more recent sources tend to favour the latter term. May need more eyes on the discussion as there are relatively few people keeping tabs on these pages. Proposal here. —Nizolan (talk · c.) 17:11, 31 July 2019 (UTC)

Requests answered in August 2019

Merge Wildlife refuge into Nature Reserve Nature reserve — AReaderOutThatawayt/c 20:33, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

Merge Mindset List to Beloit College. I think that the content in the article about the Mindset List the college has can easily be explained in the context. And I'm not sure if the merging would cause any problems as far as the size of the article it should be moved to is concerned. Pahiy (talk) 01:47, 15 August 2019 (UTC)

Merge KK Sloboda Tuzla into OKK Sloboda Tuzla. In general, it's the same basketball club, only the legal entities are different. I agree on that legal change must be mentioned it the article. And there is no sufficient information to have it in two stub articles. There are also a few examples where are two legal entities of the same basketball club in the same article. --IndexAccount (talk) 06:14, 25 July 2019 (UTC)

Merge KK Beobanka into KK Vojvodina Srbijagas. NIS took over the founding rights of and became the owner of the entire capital of KK Beobanka. Then, they moved the club from Belgrade to Novi Sad, Serbia. It's basically the same club, like Lions Vršac and Radnički Kragujevac. Also, Vojvodina Srbijagas is also defunct now so it would be better to have everything in one article. --IndexAccount (talk) 06:14, 25 July 2019 (UTC)

Merge Kibology into James Parry. Kibology is not independently notable. It is an obscure group that is best known for being James Parry's fan club. >>>Discussion Here<<<Susmuffin Talk 17:13, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

Cmnt: This article actually started out as an article on the book, and was subsequently moved to the author's name. I see no reason why this shouldn't happen. Proposer @DiamondRemley39: or other interested party should proceed. There are no comments indicating opposition to the merge. GenQuest "Talk to Me" 20:12, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

Merge List of programs aired by Jeepney TV and List of programs broadcast by Jeepney TV. Two names for basically the same thing; programs that aired/are airing on Jeepney TV. Only difference is if they are currently airing or not. Remagoxer (talk) 08:50, 31 July 2019 (UTC)

Merge Draft:Domestic Violence in South Korea into Domestic violence in South Korea. It is about the same subject anyway no point having 2 similar articles about the same subject. Dwanyewest (talk) 12:46, 15 August 2019 (UTC)

Merge Victory Drive: Savannah, Ga into Victory Drive (Savannah, Georgia). Both pages are obviously about the same street in Savannah, Georgia. Morriswa (Charlotte Allison) (talk) 03:14, 24 July 2019 (UTC)

Merge Adlerian, Classical Adlerian psychology and Classical Adlerian psychotherapy into Individual_psychology. I proposed this a few months ago and tagged the pages. To me this is an obvious merge. There has been one supportive comment and no objections. Notgain (talk) 06:36, 18 July 2019 (UTC) Also, perhaps merge Neo-Adlerian into Individual_psychology too - that has not been tagged (yet). Notgain (talk) 07:35, 18 July 2019 (UTC) Just wanted to add that the merger of Classical Adlerian psychology with individual psychology is less complicated than merging Classical Adlerian psychotherapy and some of the other topics. This might need some expert input. There is also some good content in Alfred Adler which could be merged, linked or transcluded. Notgain (talk) 01:39, 19 July 2019 (UTC)

Merge Erin Mathews to either of the following: Sabrina: Secrets of a Teenage Witch Super Monsters Geronimo Stilton (TV series) or Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures. Not a notable voice artist to begin with and blatantly neglects the WP:NACTOR and WP:GNG. But there are some voice actors from the country that lives right above us that don't have articles, e.g. Crawley, Amos. (Arnold from Magic School Bus, season 1 only) If someone invents an article about him, IMDb or his MSB wiki page CANNOT be used as reliable sources at all. As for this one, her page has to be deleted and redirected to the four aforementioned shows. And one more thing: The photo on her search results should be a high-quality one of Edwards, Perrie. Hope somebody answers to this request right away. 47.16.146.238 (talk) 17:49, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

Merge article Ortiz Shift into article [ [Infield shift]]: the former is an example of the latter, a defensive strategy in baseball. The proposal (raised by me) has support from some other editors (at least one of whom is an administrator) with a dissenting viewpoint from one other editor. Discussion can be found here. Notification placed today at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Baseball. Looking for additional input to reach consensus. Dmoore5556 (talk) 05:07, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

Merge Rocky Mount-Wilson CSA into Rocky Mount-Wilson-Roanoke Rapids CSA. Duplicates articles that cover the same CSA. Can confirm that the article ending in Roanoke Rapids is correctly named via the census website, but beyond that there appear to be differences in the respective articles about what counties and towns are in the CSA. Would appreciate anyone who has experience with census related articles to offer any feedback. aegreen (talkemail) 20:17, 17 July 2019 (UTC)

Merge Greater Raleigh-Durham CSA into Research Triangle. It appears both cover CSA information. It seems convention is to only have one article for the CSA and the "nicknamed" region (e.g. see Greensboro-Winston-Salem-High Point, NC Combined Statistical Area redirect to Piedmont Triad). Am open to the direction that the merger should go, though, if this deduction of convention is wrong. aegreen (talkemail) 21:10, 25 July 2019 (UTC) Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill, NC Combined Statistical Area does already redirect to Research Triangle so this may not be controversial. aegreen (talkemail) 21:38, 25 July 2019 (UTC)

Merge Aapakudal and Appakudal. I am dutch, so I am not the person to do this. Those Indian places are the same. I had already a talk about this on the dutch Wikipedia, look here. It's in dutch, so if you want in English, you can use Google Translate or you can ask me on my talk-page to translate it. Wikidrinker (talk) 13:50, 25 May 2019 (UTC)

Merge El coloquio de los perros and The Dialogue of the Dogs should be merged together - they are the same book; the only differences are that the former is linked on the Miguel Cervantes template and is a stub, and the latter is orphaned and has not got the picture contained on the article titled in Spanish. Orlando the Cat (talk) 06:10, 21 May 2019 (UTC)

Merge I propose to merge World Ocean into Sea. Looking at the ledes, World Ocean begins by noting that the world ocean is known colloquially as the sea. Sea, meanwhile, notes up top that it is alternately referred to as the world ocean. Taken together, this would indicate to me that they are about exactly the same topic, and thus should be combined. Sea, as the far more established article, is the obvious destination for the merger. Sdkb (talk) 19:13, 22 May 2019 (UTC)

Merge Zack Morris should become part of List of Saved by the Bell characters. I propose this because no other character from the show has their own page and the could easily be discussed in List of Saved by the Bell characters. It could be then be referenced under the Zack Morris section of the article which currently only links to the Zack Morris article. Also the Zack Morris article kind of a stub. Thank you in advance. DisneyAviationRollerCoasterEnthusiast (talk) 22:13, 14 May 2019 (UTC)

Merge Maverik, Inc. should be merged to FJ Management. Sources I can find with a web search for Maverik, Inc. do not satisfy WP:CORPDEPTH, being regular company announcements for regular company activities, not sustained coverage in independent reliable sources. The FJ Management article tells us that "On October 4, 2012, FJ Management re-entered the convenience store market with its purchase of North Salt Lake, Utah-based Maverik, Inc." -Lopifalko (talk) 05:54, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

Merge I propose to merge principal photography, production design and special effects of The Lord of the Rings film series into a single article called Production of The Lord of the Rings film series.

Merge I propose to merge Secondary cold agglutinin syndrome and Primary chronic cold agglutinin disease into Cold agglutinin disease. Both Secondary cold agglutinin syndrome and Primary chronic cold agglutinin disease are included in Cold agglutinin disease. In these 2 articles (Secondary cold agglutinin syndrome]] and Primary chronic cold agglutinin disease), there is much information for Cold agglutinin disease, not so many data only for Secondary cold agglutinin syndrome or Primary chronic cold agglutinin disease. There are the same paragraphes "Classification" in these articles.--Wolfch (talk) 16:18, 6 May 2019 (UTC)

Merge Uproxx Media Group should become part of Uproxx. After (see: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/uproxx-media-sold-warner-music-group-1131703) the acquisition of Uproxx by Warner Music Group], "Uproxx Media Group" no longer exists. It could be then be referenced under the "History" portion of the Uproxx page to reduce redundancy and properly define the company. (NOTE: I am an employee of Uproxx and am aware of the COI guidelines.) Thank you in advance. SteveZissou2019 (talk) 15:11, 18 April 2019 (UTC)

Merge I propose to merge tamakeri and denkianma into cock and ball torture. Both articles are stubs that only really have information in their introductions, and so therefore could act better as a part of a larger article. At the very least, I think denkianma should be merged into tamakeri. puggo (talk) 16:36, 28 April 2019 (UTC)

Merge tenosynovial giant cell tumor (a redirect with possibilities), pigmented villonodular synovitis and Giant-cell tumor of the tendon sheath. Initiating this merger discussion to ask the community for guidance on how to go about ensuring that tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) is accurately defined on Wikipedia. (NOTE: I am proposing this discussion for FleishmanHillard on behalf of Daiichi Sankyo. I am a paid editor and am aware of the COI guidelines.) Jon Gray (talk) 01:26, 12 April 2019 (UTC)

 Done but  Not done I believe the request centers on Tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) being a synonym of Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVS); so merging is not particularly necessary, as far as I can see. Fixed with a redirect from TGCT to PVS. Other content additions can be further added by interested parties to differentiate the two if needs be. Regards, GenQuest "Talk to Me" 01:34, 3 May 2019 (UTC)

Merge North Caucasian Huns into Huns. North Caucasian Huns is a stub and only has one source I'd really consider reliable. I propose merging it to Huns. The vast majority of scholars believe that the North Caucasian Huns were descended from or closely related to Attila's Huns, including Denis Sinor, Peter Golden, Otto Maenchen-Helfen, and Jin Hyun Kim. There's no real reason to give them their own article. Additionally, the article currently falsely gives the impression that the North Caucasian Huns are the "Khunni" mentioned in Ptolemy.--Ermenrich (talk) 15:07, 14 December 2018 (UTC)

Merge White separatism to White supremacy, I have tagged White separatism and created the discussion section at talk:White supremacy but White supremacy is locked to prevent vandalism and I am asking for someone's assistance in applying the correct tag to that page. Thanks. 208.84.155.212 (talk) 13:14, 28 March 2019 (UTC) Merge White separatism to White supremacy - the basis given by the proposer, who could not tag one of the articles, is that " The vast majority of published news and research says that White separatism is part and parcel of white supremacy. The only objector seems to be Dobratz, but the article as written is giving her WP:UNDUE weight by representing her lone writings as being "Other scholars have argued that" which creates a false-balance fallacy."

Merge Avar Khaganate into Pannonian Avars. Currently Avar Khaganate discusses the history of the Pannonian Avars, while Pannonian Avars seems to be mostly concerned with their ethnicity and culture.

Therefore, I recommend that it be redirected to the "Gun ownership" page, which has a far more comprehensive and up-to-date list, taken from the June 2018, Small Arms Survey report.

Claytronics is an abstract future concept that combines nanoscale robotics and computer science to create individual nanometer-scale computers called claytronic atoms, or catoms, which can interact with each other to form tangible 3D objects that a user can interact with.

According to this definition Claytronics is a type of programmable matter, but more theoretical/fictional.
