Merge Jean-Baptiste Bottex into Jean Baptiste Bottex. I think this should be straightforward and appear to be the same based on their Wikidata where I am a more experienced editor, but am not familiar enough with Wikipedia merges or navigating the Haitian Creole site to do it myself. --Infopetal (talk) 17:15, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
Merge Game System License (GSL) into Open Game License (OGL); dated: November 2020. Proposer's Rationale: There is a large overlap since the GSL is essentially the 4th Edition Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) version of the OGL and the differences can be addressed in the history section. The OGL article would be stronger when combined with the GSL article as it shows the direct develop of the open game system (from the 3rd Edition OGL to the 4th Edition GSL and then back to OGL with 5th Edition D&D). Discuss here. Sariel Xilo (talk) 19:36, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
Request to merge article: Dominican amber into Caribbean amber; dated: December 2020. Proposer's Rationale: There does not seem to be enough here for two separate articles; "Dominican amber" can be a section of "Caribbean amber" if necessary. Articles already share content. Discuss here. Ikjbagl (talk) 19:48, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
Merge British Army Structure In 2010 into Army 2020; dated: October 2020. Proposer's Rationale: This massive orbat uses a majority of archive sources which may not exactly point to 2010. Army 2020 was formed up in 2013 not 2010. The article was formerly titled ' British Army Structure Before Army 2020' but why was 2010 chosen even though a SDSR was produced and not mentioned at all in the merger. More importantly, is this article under WP:GNG or WP:ARTN? At best we merge it with a well formed up article or page Army 2020 under the section 'background' with less on orbat or more on specific units and or regiments. BlueD954 (talk) 04:05, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
Merge Child into Childhood. Rationale: I think these two article could easily be explained in one article. Interstellarity (talk) 16:05, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
Merge Caecilii Metelli family tree into Caecilius Metellus; Proposer's Rationale: Same information / redundant GenQuest "Talk to Me" 21:11, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
Merge Centimetre of water with Millimeters, water gauge. The same unit, only the scale (centimetre vs. millimeter) is different. Not enough for two articles, IMHO. --S.K. (talk) 17:48, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
Merge Ahmed-Al-Kabeer into Ahmad al-Rifaʽi. Reason: same person. 3 kids in a trenchcoat (talk) 02:51, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Merge Gerberian Shepsky back into Talk:List of dog crossbreeds: I propose to restore the merger of Gerberian Shepsky back into this list. This recreated article still fails WP:GNG, only one source [1] comes close to providing WP:SIGCOV (

Merge Zaporizhia (disambiguation) into Zaporizhzhia (disambiguation), as it covers the same material, the only difference being the old and new spelling of the city used on Wikipedia. RicardoNixon97 (talk) 21:03, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
Merge Apple Bandai Pippin into Apple Pippin. Jeff (talk) 18:06, 23 October 2020 (UTC)
Merge The Mask Singer Myanmar (season 1) into The Mask Singer Myanmar. Only one season exists and must be merged to the main show article. HiwilmsTalk 09:50, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
Merge Citico (Chattanooga, Tennessee) to Citico (Cherokee town). Reason: Same location, the two archeological sites can easily be in the same article and should be. No need for a split. Discuss >>>HERE<<<. GenQuest "Talk to Me" 04:25, 30 October 2020 (UTC)

Merge Comedy hip hop into Satirical hip hop. There is no section of "comedy hip hop" that explains how to differentiate it from satirical hip hop, and both terms refer to a tounge-in-cheek approach to hip hop music. JJPMaster (talk) 14:15, 12 September 2020 (UTC)

Merge from NHS Nightingale Hospitals into

Merge from Draft:Clan Hunter to Clan Hunter
Merge Dale Cregan into Murders of Nicola Hughes and Fiona Bone. Cregan has no indication of notability besides being the killers of the two officers and most of his article's content already exists in the murders article, similar to how most shooters articles are redirected to the shootings they committed. 108.41.60.144 (talk) 13:19, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
Merge Andy Lau filmography (42k) and Andy Lau discography (15k) into Andy Lau (36k). Neither article is sourced and their contents fit into the merge target easily. 108.41.60.144 (talk) 13:38, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
Merge Death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg with Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Vorbee (talk) 17:28, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
Merge 2020 United States racial reckoning and 2020 United States racial unrest. This is a malformed mess of a request. The articles were not tagged properly, so discussion happened on two talk pages. It's mainly collecting WP:IDONTLIKEITs from passersby since it wasn't advertised, similar arguments as overcome in the recent AfD. This discussion has been open for almost three weeks. czar 17:15, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
Merge Ronald G. Giovanelli (created in 2020) into Ron Giovanelli (created in 2016). It looks like they're about the same person. Dr. Vogel (talk) 08:36, 2 October 2020 (UTC) |

Merge Drumline into Marching percussion. These two articles are just too similar in my opinion. They both go over the same instruments, one being slightly focused on musical roles (drumline) and the other on the actual instrument (marching percussion). I think these two articles (and possibly Front ensemble)) could be combined. If not then the drumline should depart from simply listing instruments to discussing the actual development of the ensemble. What do you guys think? Why? I Ask (talk) 15:07, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
Merge:
to Dir En Grey main article. These members are only known for this band, articles read like ESP instrument advertisement and sourced only to advertisement. Little info on members can go to main band page.Ficadimerda (talk) 09:03, 12 September 2020 (UTC)
Merge Saudi Arabian-led intervention in Yemen (364k) into Second Saudi–Yemeni War (50k+). Both articles talk about the same thing. I prefer the title of “Second Saudi Yemeni war” over the other since its mostly what’s used today on the internet and in conversations User: Ehoah88880 (talk) 12:42, 23 September 2020 (GTC)
Merge Statue of Charles Linn into Charles Linn: I did this merge given the brevity of the first article but was reverted, though the merged material was left in place in the latter article. I don't really see a reason for two articles, especially since the statue article isn't really about it per se but about its removal, presumably because Linn was a confederate officer, which is only explained in his own article. The statue is just another memorial statue of no artistic note. Mangoe (talk) 15:37, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
Merge the closed/defunct Sportpark Duivesteijn cricket venue into List of cricket grounds in the Netherlands. GenQuest "Talk to Me" 17:42, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
Merge Preston Model into Community wealth building. The content on the Preston Model article can easily be on the community wealth building article as it is only one paragraph. Jonjonjohny (talk) 09:42, 15 September 2020 (UTC)
Merge Shinya (musician) with Dir en Grey. Subject only known for this band, article is short stub with small content and long list of trivia.Ficadimerda (talk) 16:03, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
Merge Terminal Coal Company with Pittsburgh Coal Company 100.6.108.98 (talk) 22:37, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
Merge Summer Mummers into Yucca Theater (Midland, Texas). Summer Mummers is an event held at the Yucca Theater in Midland, Texas and I think having that event listed in the Yucca article would be beneficial than two separate articles the former of which doesn't cite any sources and I think it could help the latter article in someway. Pahiy (talk) 23:06, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
Merge Barmar - Rishikesh express into Kalka–Barmer Express. These train starting point and share their rake and they route is only 25 percentage different . These are article have very much information same so I proposed Merging of these articles. Chikukiri(talk)
Merge Google Chrome for Android to Google Chrome. This was originally proposed in 2013 and closed with no comments. My current merge discussion has been open since July 27th with no comments. Chrome has evolved since its launch to where functionality and updates on mobile have been synchronized across all platforms. It seems to be a no brainer for this article to be merged and anything useful from this article to be added to the main Chrome article. – The Grid (talk) 12:58, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

Merge Please merge Liverpool Overhead Railway electric units into Liverpool Overhead Railway, under "Rolling Stock". The information on the Electric units article largely mirrors the information on the main Liverpool Overhead Railway article, and any information differences could be moved into the "Rolling Stock" section on the Liverpool Overhead Railway. Thanks. Jh15s (talk) 22:58, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
Merge Please merge Liverpool Overhead Railway Southern Extension Tunnel into Dingle railway station. The Southern Extension Tunnel is a part of the Dingle railway station and does not need a separate article as they are technically the same. The article on the tunnel is also short and without any citations so it would be better for it to be moved into a separate section in the Dingle railway station article. Thanks!

Merge Please merge Qantas fleet history into Qantas fleet. The Qantas fleet article is short and only details the current aircraft used, and the Qantas fleet history article only details aircraft that were historically used. Merging the two together would make a more centralised place for information regarding Qantas aircraft. Thanks! Jh15s (talk) 08:06, 28 July 2020 (UTC)
Merge 2019 New York bail reform into Bail in the United States. The New York article is already out-of-date, and seems unlikely to be developed further. Arllaw (talk) 21:46, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

Merge Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) and Giant-cell tumor of the tendon sheath (GCT-TS) into a new tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) article. The medical consensus is that PVNS and GCT-TS are both variations of TGCT. Mary Gaulke (talk) 15:35, 27 July 2020 (UTC)

Please complete the merge and redirect of G4 EA H1N1 into Influenza A virus subtype H1N1. Both articles tagged, all Wikiprojects notified, consensus achieved, article content has already been merged, but for the avoidance of conflict, I do not want to complete the redirect myself as I proposed the merge/redirect,[2] and one editor objects. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 15:21, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
Merge 2020 Major League Baseball All-Star Game into Major League Baseball All-Star Game. The 2020 MLB All-Star Game will never happen and there is already a paragraph in the merge target talking about the cancellation, like how the also-cancelled 2012 New York City Marathon and 2020 New York City Marathon redirects to New York City Marathon and there is total support for merging 2020 Boston Marathon into Boston Marathon. 108.41.60.144 (talk) 13:17, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
Merge Gamosa into Gamucha clearly Wikipedia:Content forking, Wikipedia:Duplicate article and Wikipedia:NPOV! Same clothes only local varieties of name, slightly Dif pronunciation fulled n filled by nationalist POV! If high important historical relevant national cloths like Sri Lankan "Osariya" and Bangladeshi "Sharee" can find peace in one and only article Sari then why on earth those POV pushing splitting.–89.0.170.238 (talk) 07:47, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

MERGE 2020 Boston Marathon into Boston Marathon. The 2020 marathon will not happen and there is already a section in the merge target talking about the cancellation, similar to how 2012 New York City Marathon redirects to New York City Marathon#2012 108.21.244.229 (talk) 16:20, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
Merge The Rubin Report into Dave Rubin. S. Rich proposed this merge three years ago, though the proposal didn't get much attention. I opposed it at the time, not realizing how exclusive The Rubin Report is to Dave Rubin and how much overlap there is between the information in each article. I now propose that we do in fact merge The Rubin Report into Dave Rubin. The fact that Dave Rubin's Twitter handle is @RubinReport says it all. Michipedian (talk) 20:04, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
Merge Clube Atlético Bragantino and Red Bull Bragantino. The first article lists the club as a defunct football club, which is incorrect. What was said back then to justify the creation of a new page is that it was a merger between Red Bull and Bragantino, but it was not, since the former actually plays in the state second division, and Bragantino's property remains with the club. What happened was a financial takeover and a rebranding of Bragantino, similar to what has happened twice to Paulista Futebol Clube, which never got a separate article. Same goes for FC Red Bull Salzburg, which retains the history of the club prior to its rebranding. Bragantino is not a defunct club and should Red Bull quit supporting the club financially, it will just go back to its original name and identity. My suggestion is merge the new page into the old one and rename it. Horcoff (talk) 01:34, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
Merge Fifteenth Dynasty of Egypt into Hyksos. The Fifteenth Dynasty of Egypt refers to the rulers known as the Hyksos; it is the same as having Ptolemaic Egypt cover the Ptolemaic Dynasty.--Ermenrich (talk) 15:09, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
