@Freedom's Falcon: Thanks for creating Wikipedia and the 2023 Israel-Palestine war, but I think this could be merged into Wikipedia coverage of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Any opposition? We can decide on the best single page title, but I don't think we need two separate articles at this time. ---Another Believer (Talk) 14:43, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

- @Buidhe Thanks for weighing in. I've proposed a more specific suggestion below, if you're interested in commenting further. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:30, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
- Oppose. What you're suggesting is a very general topic, but I mean the 2023 war specifically, as we have another example of an article about a specific event, which is Wikipedia and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. That's why there's a need for a specific article. --Freedom's Falcon (talk) 15:47, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Freedom's Falcon: I suggest merging Wikipedia and the 2023 Israel-Palestine war into Wikipedia coverage of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, then moving the page to "Wikipedia and the Israeli–Palestinian conflict". Would this work for you? Also, using "2023 Israel-Palestine war" will be outdated in a few days. ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:54, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Another Believer: Your proposal sounds good to me now. I agree with merging the articles and renaming the page. --Freedom's Falcon (talk) 07:20, 30 December 2023 (UTC)
Done Since the two page authors are in agreement, and there's general support from others, I have been bold and merged and moved to Wikipedia and the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. I've included a merge template on the talk page for attribution, but please let me know if anything else is needed here. Thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 07:27, 30 December 2023 (UTC)

- Support: As others have stated, there is no reason to have two articles, especially since both are fairly short. If either or both of the articles were substantial, I may have a different opinion, but there's no issue of undue weight here. Further, Freedom Falcon's point about specificity regarding the 2023 conflict does not quite apply here given that the Wikipedia coverage of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict article solely discusses the current conflict.

- Support merge There's no need to have two separate articles; neither of them are big and they're not independently notable. ~ F4U (talk • they/it) 16:11, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
