Merge discussion
[edit]The Ndur article is about the same subject as this one. This spelling seems to be the main variant based on the linked articles on that page so it makes sense to merge that article here. noq (talk) 17:06, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
- With respect to the variations in spelling based on Anglophone (Gambia) and Francophone (Senegal), the article should be left as it is in order to educate the general reader about the colonial past of these two countries which also impacted on the spelling variations of various subjects (including names, surnames, etc.) of these two countries. If an article is to be created about the N'Dour or Ndur family, that subject can be addressed as in the Joof family article. In that regard, I oppose this merge.Tamsier (talk) 17:58, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
- We can get round spelling by converting Ndur to a redirect here and we can mention the spelling variations as part of the merge. As the two articles cover the same subject keeping them separate is just unnecessary duplication. noq (talk) 18:06, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
- Support No reason to have two DAB pages DABing the same articles. The spelling variation can be explained on a single page. Khazar2 (talk) 20:02, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
