Merger proposal

Should this article be merged with Gecko? See Talk:Gecko#Doublet.3F FelixReimann (talk) 12:08, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This page was formally proposed by Arjuno3 (21 March 2016) for merger with Gecko.

But the answer is do not merge. Because gecko is only one of the seven families under Gekkota, a valid suborder. Meaning that Wikilink from each family will redirect to gecko, which is absurd. Each taxon requires/derserves a separate page, unless it is monotypic. Chhandama (talk) 03:13, 9 June 2017 (UTC) Merge is my new opinion because, upon careful observation, the two pages are about the same thing really. And I thought they were about different taxons.

Oppose Are Pygopodidae species (legless lizards) really considered to be geckos? Mos definitions of gecko I've found restrict it to Gekkonidae. Calling the entire suborder Gekkota geckos appears to be a Wikipedia invention not followed elsewhere. Merging gecko/Gekkonidae might be appropriate, but not gecko/Gekkota.
