Requests answered in December 2018

Merge Infogalactic into Vox Day, since the article is really a stub and the redirection Infogalactic (website) already exists. Tsumikiria (T/C) 02:28, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Merge Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury and Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction into Anterior Cruciate Ligament. These articles are all about the same thing, but two of them are just about the injury and surgery. (Untitled.docx (talk) 03:37, 15 November 2018 (UTC))

Merge List of Rhode Island Public Transit Authority routes into Rhode Island Public Transit Authority. The list of routes does not seem long enough to justify a separate article. Heck, the "Retired fleet" list in the main article looks longer. 74.89.46.206 (talk) 00:49, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

Merge Bering Sea Gold: Under The Ice into Bering Sea Gold, unlisted discussion from 2016, discussion was result from a page move request in 2016. Merge tags existed from the start of the merge request in 2016. -- 65.94.42.168 (talk) 05:48, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

Merge The Pet Goat into its author, Siegfried Engelmann. The book's only claim to fame was that President George W. Bush was reading it to schoolchildren when he was informed of the 9/11 attacks. That is it. It has not won any notable awards or gotten any coverage beyond that. 74.89.40.123 (talk) 13:19, 6 August 2018 (UTC)

Merge Max (Portuguese singer) and Max Schneider. I'm fairly certain these are the same singers with different articles but I can't know for sure due to the lack of sources presented here. I think a merge may be best here. Redditaddict69 (talk) (contribs) 05:12, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

Merge Up, Down and Touch the Ground, Rumbly in My Tumbly, Little Black Rain Cloud, and Mind over Matter (song) into Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree. These songs were only used in that one film and there is no evidence of meeting WP:NSONG or WP:GNG beyond that. 68.198.184.97 (talk) 15:44, 19 August 2018 (UTC)

Merge VIAS into Vias (rail company): "Vias (rail company)" is the older article, and has the title compliant with MOS:TM and MOS:CAPS. "VIAS" itself has referred to different topics in its time as a redirect before being duplicated as an article. These two pages refer to the same topic and should be merged. -- 65.94.40.222 (talk) 05:39, 2 December 2018 (UTC)

Merge Emma E. Booker Elementary School into Sarasota, Florida#Education. The school's only claim to fame was that President George W. Bush was visiting when the 9/11 attacks occurred. That is it. Most of the article talks about the events of that day anyway, which is already covered in other 9/11 related articles. 74.89.40.123 (talk) 13:19, 6 August 2018 (UTC)

Requests answered in November 2018

Merge Cyril Furmstone Evans into SS Californian#Sinking of Titanic. This man's only notable life event was that he was the wireless operator aboard the Californian when it did nothing the night Titanic sank and unlike the captain, was not heavily criticized afterwards or suffered long-term consequences. His article has hardly any references and most of the content already exists in the ship's article anyway. 74.89.41.148 (talk) 22:49, 30 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge Death of Pope Pius XII into Pope Pius XII. His death article is rather short, contains excessive unneeded trivial information, and the main article already has a section about his death. 74.89.40.22 (talk) 12:48, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge Galerie Rudolfinum into Rudolfinum. The articles are about a building, and a part of that building. Both articles are short, contained a lot of duplication pre-cleanup, and make more sense on the same page. Discussion here. A merge of these articles was carried out previously but reverted: diff here. Jdcooper (talk) 10:58, 17 July 2018 (UTC)

Merge Bronx-Lebanon Hospital attack into Bronx-Lebanon Hospital Center. Neither article is very long and the attack article contains a lot of unneeded details about the incident and the few needed information can be added to the hospital attack. 74.89.40.106 (talk) 21:36, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

Merge Spectrum management and Frequency administration because it is the same. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2a02:1206:45b4:bbe0:918d:519d:fbd2:6471 (talk) 16:46, 25 September 2017 (UTC)

Merge Ghana Rugby Football Union into Ghana Rugby Association. Dwanyewest (talk) 13:37, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

Merge Nkrumah University into Kwame Nkrumah University. These appear to be about the same institution in Kabwe, Zambia (of which I know nothing). The full title appears to be Kwame Nkrumah University so I would suggest that a knowledgeable person merges the former to the latter. Oculi (talk) 21:40, 18 August 2018 (UTC)

Merge: Key (lock) to Lock (security device). The history sections are almost the same, and the discussions of different types of locks (and keys for those locks) are parallel. power~enwiki (π, ν) 02:01, 9 October 2018 (UTC)

Merge Ground nut soup into Peanut soup. Ground nuts are peanuts. --Gomuragi (talk) 05:03, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge 2017 Tour of Qatar into Tour of Qatar. The 2017 race never happened and the main article already explains why. 74.89.40.22 (talk) 02:01, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge Jenny Ross into Section 25. She sadly did not really do anything outside the bad before her untimely death, never released her own singles or albums or had any other professions. 74.89.41.218 (talk) 00:48, 3 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge The Festival of Dionysus, Ares (Hercules: The Legendary Journeys), Promises (Hercules: The Legendary Journeys), and King for a Day (Hercules: The Legendary Journeys) into List of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys episodes. These episode articles have just plot summary and trivia with no reliable references since their creation. Many other episode articles for this series were merged to the list article recently, so the same should be done for these four. 69.118.34.240 (talk) 01:20, 14 August 2018 (UTC)

Merge List of defunct airlines of Serbia into List of airlines of Serbia. Neither article is very long and they have the same general information as each other. 74.89.40.56 (talk) 21:41, 11 August 2018 (UTC)

Merge The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers into Tigger. This particular song does not meet WP:NSONG and is created solely for the Winnie the Pooh character. 68.198.184.97 (talk) 00:01, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

Merge Public health engineering into Sanitary engineering. The former is basically the same as the latter, but the latter article is better written and has a wider scope overall. The former is a stub. Rosalina2427 (talk to me) 06:12, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

Merge List of Green Bay Packers stadiums into Green Bay Packers or History of the Green Bay Packers. No need for a separate article for a short list that fits well into the main article

Requests answered in October 2018

Merge Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity & Family Federation for World Peace and Unification into Unification movement. It is the same organisation/movement someone has been adding lots and lots of forks based on sources from the organizations itself. I forgot how to add the correct templates and create the discussion formally to kick start the discussion at least Abcmaxx (talk) 15:25, 27 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge List of Neighbours characters (2017)#Andrea Somers into Dee Bliss. Linked soap characters played by the same actor, with a current major storyline not disclosing which character is involved. See Talk:Dee Bliss#Proposed merger with List of Neighbours characters (2017)#Andrea Somers for full rationale and diffs of completed merger, reverted under WP:BRD. U-Mos (talk) 02:07, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

Merge Pixel (smartphone) and Pixel 2 into Google Pixel. The Pixel smartphone and Pixel 2 are subsets of the Google Pixel product line and don't warrant individual entries.

 Not done – opposition to merger. Richard3120 (talk) 21:55, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge Airbreathing jet engine into Jet engine. They are essentially the same topic, as other kinds of jet propulsion have other names. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 16:30, 30 July 2018 (UTC)

 Working – consensus is to merge. Richard3120 (talk) 21:44, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge Doe v. Clenchy into Nicole Maines. This particular court case was started by only one person, the transgender actress. Its article has not expanded in years, there is little else to add due to lack of recent developments or significant impact, and the actress's article already has a section about it. 69.118.33.103 (talk) 23:40, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

 Not done – consensus opposed to merging; former article has been moved to Doe v. Regional School Unit 26 instead. Richard3120 (talk) 21:44, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge List of Cloverfield characters into Cloverfield (franchise). The characters article has little reliable references and is mostly plot and fancruft summaries. 74.89.41.43 (talk) 21:46, 22 July 2018 (UTC)

 Done by interested party. Richard3120 (talk) 21:44, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge Alum_Bluff_Formation into Alum_Bluff_Group. Alum Bluff Formation was elevated to group status as recorded in the history of publication by the USGS (https://ngmdb.usgs.gov/Geolex/UnitRefs/AlumBluffRefs_79.html). The references used on the Alum Bluff Formation article are the same as those that could be used for the Alum Bluff Group. The Alum Bluff Formation article as uses Group/Formation interchangeably. --Tsaiko (talk) 23:11, 27 June 2018 (UTC)

 Done by interested party. Richard3120 (talk) 21:19, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge Patrick Carr into Boston Massacre. Other than being the last fatality of the incident, no evidence of notability. Most of the article talks about his testimony in the subsequent trial before his death and the few critical information needed can be added to the massacre article. 69.118.35.94 (talk) 22:39, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

 Done by interested party. Richard3120 (talk) 21:19, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

 Done by interested party. Richard3120 (talk) 21:09, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge Small arms into Firearm. Article Small Arms is very short. The distinctions between the definition of Small Arms and Firearms if any are unclear from the article. WP:Wikipedia is not a dictionary; there does not need to be a separate entry for every concept. The content in the Small Arms article can easily be explained in the context of Firearm in a few sentences. The merging of Small Arms will not cause any problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned. 132.148.150.70 (talk) 20:46, 17 June 2018 (UTC)

 Done by interested party. Richard3120 (talk) 21:09, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge Giant planet and Outer planets. Both articles seem to talk about the same thing. --75.67.58.188 (talk) 11:34, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

 Working Comment: Outer Planets article possibly being moved, may be soon be out of scope for this request. On hold for now. Discuss >>>HERE<<<. GenQuest "Talk to Me" 14:30, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
 Not done – merger proposal no longer valid as there is new proposal to move Outer planets to another article. Richard3120 (talk) 21:09, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge Propose merging 2004 Book Sense Book of the Year Awards, 2005 Book Sense Book of the Year Awards, 2006 Book Sense Book of the Year Awards, 2007 Book Sense Book of the Year Awards, and 2008 Book Sense Book of the Year Awards to Indies Choice Book Awards which is what the award was renamed to and what Book Sense Book of the Year redirects to. Seems unnecessary to have seperate pages for each year of the award. Barkeep49 (talk) 14:57, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

 Done by interested party – no objections raised. Richard3120 (talk) 21:02, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

 Not done – no consensus. Richard3120 (talk) 21:00, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge There's... Johnny! into There's...Johnny!. The first article is not written in a grammatically correct manner consistent with Wikipedia naming conventions or in the manner that NBCUniversal has expressed it is to be written. Had I known that the other article already existed, I would have moved it to the correct title before rewriting it. – BoogerD (talk) 22:54, 27 August 2018 (UTC)

 Done — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.89.40.57 (talk • contribs) 16:13, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
Note: merger has been performed in the opposite direction. Richard3120 (talk) 17:23, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge 2018 Korea Open with 2018 Korea Open (tennis). One can actually redirect into the other, as the content is pretty much the same already. Edoderoo (talk) 07:37, 3 September 2018 (UTC)

 Not done duplicate article has been deleted — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.89.42.51 (talk • contribs) 17:01, 3 September 2018 (UTC)

Merge Nicky (Avenue Q) into Avenue Q. This puppet only appears in the musical and his article has barely improved or expanded since its creation over seven years ago. 69.118.35.240 (talk) 01:39, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

 Done by Interested Party. AmericanAir88(talk) 02:13, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
Requests answered in August 2018

Merge Relational database management system into Relational database. The first article is more like a stub, it's content can be easily merged into the second article (maybe with some parts going to generic "DBMS" article; of course, logically thinking, "Relational database management system" and "Relational database" are different things, but the main question is: do we have enough amount of content that is specific to Relational database management system and not to Relational database?). Sasha1024 (talk) 06:40, 13 April 2018 (UTC)

 Done power~enwiki (π, ν) 22:00, 18 August 2018 (UTC)

Merge Special operations#Special Operations Forces into Special forces. Section is about units, purpose of special forces article, and not about a type of military operations - special operations. Melbguy05 (talk) 06:06, 5 August 2018 (UTC)

 Done --Melbguy05 (talk) 12:39, 17 August 2018 (UTC)

Merge Webcam blackmail into Sextortion. Webcam blackmail is just a form of sextortion and most of its contents already exist in the sextortion article. 69.118.35.167 (talk) 18:20, 2 August 2018 (UTC)

 Done by interested party. AmericanAir88 (talk) 11:08, 10 August 2018 (UTC)

Merge Melinda Warner into List of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit characters as the article is mostly plot and the only sources are the episodes themselves. 69.118.32.213 (talk) 22:06, 9 April 2018 (UTC)

Requests answered in July 2018

Merge Fender '51 Precision Bass into Fender Precision Bass. The '51 Precision Bass article is too short and doesn't hold enough information to warrant having it's own article. All the information held in the '51 Precision Bass article can be safely moved into the Fender Precision Bass article. --DanTheGamer2003 (talk) 07:26, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

Merge Ronald A. Williams II into Antoinette Frank. Wikipedia is not a memorial for fallen officers and the majority of the article talks about the murder/restaurant robbery, which is already covered in Frank's article. 69.118.35.133 (talk) 13:03, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

Merge 2018 German government crisis into Fourth Merkel cabinet. I'm proposing this merger on the grounds that the content of 2018 German government crisis creates the impression that this situation exists in a vacuum and that immigration is the only topic on which the coalition government disagrees. This is, in my opinion, not in line with the Wikipedia:Neutral point of view policy. There is plenty of room for a summary of the present cabinet's activities in this article; if some specific aspect should turn out to require more in-depth treatment, this will probably only become apparent in retrospect and the relevant title can then be created as a separate topic. Cf. other articles in the series, such as Second Luther cabinet.

Merge Four Heavenly Kings (Hong Kong) into Cantopop. That article is relatively short with a lot of unneeded info and there is a section in the Cantopop article that already talks about the four members. 74.89.40.99 (talk) 21:55, 29 May 2018 (UTC)

Merge Meghan Doyle, Richard Tyler (The 4400), Lily Tyler, Isabelle Tyler, Maia Skouris, Diana Skouris, Alana Mareva, Shawn Farrell, Jordan Collier, Tom Baldwin (The 4400), and Kyle Baldwin into List of The 4400 characters. All these character articles have little to no reliable references and are mostly plot summaries. 74.89.40.106 (talk) 17:36, 15 May 2018 (UTC)

Merge Ultrasoft radiation + soft radiation + hard radiation --> to --> Ionizing radiation. – These three articles are types of ionizing radiation, and are short stubs barely more than dicdefs. They would be better served redirecting to ionizing radiation with short summaries in that article. -- 65.94.42.219 (talk) 11:32, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

Merge Rose Tico into List of Star Wars characters, which already has an entry for this character. Her article is almost all plot, has no reliable sources to prove notability, and she has only been in one Star Wars movie so far. 69.118.34.248 (talk) 18:48, 19 April 2018 (UTC)

Merge John McLoughlin (police officer), Will Jimeno, Christopher Amoroso, Dominick Pezzulo, Dave Karnes and Jason Thomas into World Trade Center (film). Besides being featured in the movie, there is nothing remarkably notable about any of these men and most of the articles' contents focus on what happened to them during the September 11 attacks, which is basically what was already shown in the movie. 69.118.33.181 (talk) 16:26, 13 March 2018 (UTC)

Merge Anti-psychiatry into Controversy surrounding psychiatry. Anti-psychiatry is part of the controversy surrounding psychiatry. 187.130.75.2 (talk) 13:37, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

Merge Censorship of Instagram into Instagram, and Censorship of Pinterest into Pinterest. These two articles are orphaned and stubs, and would be difficult to find outside of looking at either of those pages. Possibly, the content can also be merged into Internet censorship in the People's Republic of China. --Caorongjin (talk) 20:18, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

 Done AmericanAir88 (talk) 14:58, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

Merge the following articles into List of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys episodes:

Merge Promicin, Promise City (The 4400), Haspel Corporation, The 4400 Center and Highland Beach (The 4400) into The 4400. These articles are about entities and locations from the show and are mostly plot, trivial stuff, and have barely any reliable references. 74.89.40.99 (talk) 21:58, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

Merge List of That '70s Show cast members into List of That '70s Show characters. Many of the cast members listed in the former article already exists in the character article. Those that are not can be added under a new section titled "Notable Guest Stars" or something similar 74.89.40.99 (talk) 13:37, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

Merge List of civil aviation authorities into National aviation authority for the purposes of avoiding redundancies and simplifying access to information by integrating them into a single article.

Merge 2018 Hawaii earthquake into 2018 lower Puna eruption.

Merge Zion Square into Downtown Triangle (Jerusalem) because they talk about the same place, and 70% of the informations and expressions are duplicate. What do you think?--Anass (talk) 14:44, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

Merge Isabelle into Isabel or vice-versa. Most names with simple spelling variants have one page, with different sub-sections dedicated each variant. --SpiritedMichelle (talk) 01:40, 26 April 2018 (UTC)

Merge Vehicle safety technology into Advanced driver-assistance systems, VTS covers the same material as what is in Advanced Driver-assistance systems, just in more detail. VTS even links to ADAS. Both articles have decent content, but overlap greatly. GamerMan7799 (talk) 14:58, 20 April 2018 (UTC)

Merge Anna Lindh Memorial Fund into Anna Lindh, not enough information for the fund service can be found to warrant a separate article and its content will not likely overwhelm the Lindh article. We usually don't have separate articles for memorial funds anyway. 69.118.34.16 (talk) 18:34, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

Merge Pain de mie into Pan loaf, which already has a Wikidata article. The Pain de mie article is presently on the new pages review backlog since 2005. Alternatively, should we consider the two articles as describing two different type of bred, we need to create a new Wikidata article about Pain de mie? In any case Pain de mie should be cleared from new pages review backlog, where it has been for 13 years now. Dan Koehl (talk) 12:26, 22 January 2018 (UTC) (EDIT: Pain de mie is submitted on the List_of_breads, while Pan loaf is not. Dan Koehl (talk) 12:58, 22 January 2018 (UTC)

Merge Kozalin into Kozolin. Very close place that could very well be the same with a spelling mistake. Maybe someone with better knowledge of poland could check TomT0m (talk) 16:03, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

Merge Shah Turabul Haq Qadri and Shah Turab ul Haq. Both are about the same person. Article Shah Turabul Haq Qadri is very short so the content can be added in the other article.
