seeking wider input on a potential merge

Sketchfab into Fab (website) Arlo James Barnes 19:41, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note that I closed it as stale with no case made; see Talk:Sketchfab#merge with Fab (website)?; there was also no support. Klbrain (talk) 10:01, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

merged-from template use

It seems to me, the purpose of {{afd-merged-from}} is licensing-required attribution of merged content. Is that correct? If then, an AFD was closed as a merger decision, but in the end, nothing was merged but instead merely redirected, is that template still the appropriate one to use? — Fourthords | =Λ= | 21:11, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Agree; I wouldn't use it for a redirect. Klbrain (talk) 09:59, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Scottie McClue

Someone has merged the Scottie McClue Colin Lamont pages they have been separated for years very confusing for fans 😳 2A00:23C8:1EA1:A601:983A:C2FF:FE8A:4FFA (talk) 01:43, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This seems to refer to Colin Lamont. Visit Talk:Colin_Lamont#One_article/two_articles, read it, keep scrolling down and read some more. You could add comments on that page, if you think they haven't been covered enough already. Commander Keane (talk) 05:34, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's true that someone ('twas me!) merged them, back in 2019 ... it looks like fans haven't been that concerned over the last 5 years. The merge was back in 2019 following a 2017 merge discussion. Klbrain (talk) 09:58, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge or blank-and-redirect?

According to the discussion here, there is consensus that the Action of 1 February 1625 and the Battle off Hormuz (1625) are in fact about the same naval battle. Some editors are in favour of a blank-and-redirect instead of a merge. What is the right approach and how should the discussion be closed? Ruud Buitelaar (talk) 00:40, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I closed the discussion; the difference is simply the retention of a specific section, which can be resolved in later discussion if someone really does object. Felix QW (talk) 12:29, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How to propose merger

I've read the proposed merger section explanation, but I'm still confused about how it should be done. I wish to propose that the following article: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/CRINK be merged into https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Axis_of_Upheaval. I would be grateful for any help. Thank you.

Looks like TwinBoo has competently created a proposal. Visit Talk:Axis_of_Upheaval#Merge_proposal to weigh in on it. Let us know if it is still not clear how this is done. ~Kvng (talk) 15:02, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Appreciate you letting me know. Mrodowicz (talk) 10:13, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
