Requested move

Windows XP Service Pack → Windows XP service packs … Rationale: Since there is no formal name for all service packs, the service pack part shouldn't be captitalized. Also, there are multiple service packs, so the name should be plural.

This article and Windows XP

Discussion on the proposal to remove service pack information from Windows XP to Windows XP service packs is being conducted at Talk:Windows XP which is a more appropriate location for this discussion since it involves significantly altering the Windows XP article. --AussieLegend (talk) 01:26, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the proposal to merge the service pack information from this article to Windows XP was merge. For clarification, which appears necessary in light of past edits, this means that information will be merged from Windows XP service packs back into Windows XP. --AussieLegend (talk) 07:47, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Now that the discussion at Talk:Windows XP has been closed with the dicision not to merge into this article, we should merge this article back into Windows XP. There's no reason to list this information twice. - Josh (talk | contribs) 07:51, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support - As can be seen already, duplication of information in two articles has resulted in significant differences between the two, particularly as relates to SP3. --AussieLegend (talk) 14:33, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Further to the above, I've made appropriate edits to Windows XP that incorporated some information contained in this article that should have been included in that one. I've also made an edit to this article that I've marked as a "snapshot edit". Only edits made after that need be considered for merging into Windows XP in the event that this proposal is successful. --AussieLegend (talk) 02:41, 27 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why Thank you Mr. Aussie Legend. I'm glad that you did the appropriate edits. -- KelleyCook (talk) 05:12, 27 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support - No need to duplicate. Merge back to Windows XP, ASAP. --BWCNY (talk) 07:51, 27 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion on this proposal was suppose to occur at Talk:Windows XP according to the {{mergeto}} tag so I'm going to copy the discussion so far to there. --AussieLegend (talk) 16:34, 6 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There appears to be a clear consensus to merge so I'm closing this discussion and taking the appropriate action as detailed at WP:MERGE --AussieLegend (talk) 07:47, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
