Closing instructions
The discussion about merging at the village pump is now archived (here). The vast majority of those who expressed an opinion considered the system based on the current templates and this process (Wikipedia:Proposed mergers) to be inadequate.
The implementation of a new automated system is being discussed at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Merge#Automation of merge proposals. More participation in that discussion is welcome.
This page lists proposed article mergers as a supplement to the merge categories and templates; it does not replace any of the other steps in the merger process. Please add the appropriate merger tag(s) to the articles before listing them here.
Category mergers should not be proposed here. Please see Wikipedia:Categories for discussion.
Template mergers should not be proposed here. Please see Wikipedia:Templates for discussion.
How to propose a merger
Proposing a merger can be done in three steps:
- Create a place for discussion. Go to the discussion page (also known as the talk page) of the target (merging to) article and create a section to discuss the merger. If there's already a discussion on the talk page regarding the merger, you can omit this step. Whether the discussion is new or old, make sure the discussion section names all articles involved and link to them. The section name can be anything that includes the word merge, for example
==Proposed merger from Page1==.
- Put one of the merger tags at the top of the articles you wish to be merged. The templates {{merge}}, {{Merge from}} and {{Merge to}} are the most common ones. Remember to make sure that the Discuss link in each tag points to the section you've created in step 1 – this is to prevent having two separate discussions on different talk pages.
- If the proposed merge is controversial or potentially difficult to carry out, follow the directions under #Requests for assistance and feedback to add it to the list.
Requests for assistance and feedback
If you need outside feedback regarding mergers that are either tricky or of a controversial nature, please do the following:
- Tag the article as shown above
- Create a discussion as shown above
- Notify the talk page of the appropriate Wikiproject to get knowledgable people to comment on it.
- If there is consensus to merge, but the merge is difficult, contact Wikipedia:WikiProject Merge for assistance.
For other topics:
Don't post here if you are not willing to do the merge yourself. We will provide you assistance in how to complete the merge if you are unsure how to do it.
Current requests
If you need assistance with proposing a merge, list it below and someone will make sure it's properly listed. Note that this will not get the merge completed, as there is a large merge backlog. This can also be used if an old proposal needs more discussion. We will attempt to get more people to comment on it.
Once a merge is listed properly, move it to the completed requests or awaiting consensus sections below as appropriate.
Please list new requests at the bottom of this section. Use the edit summary–List at least one of the articles' titles. Please sign each listing or comment by typing: ~~~~
- Ditto: my first merge proposal. I think I tagged it right (followed WP:Merge) but would just like to have someone experienced look it over. Merge Beyond Ex-Gay into Ex-ex-gay. I also plan to check History and notify prominent past editors (if any) on their Talk pages, but other than that, I'm done I think. Feedback (if needed) to my Talk page, thanks! Mathglot (talk) 21:11, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
- Hans Hopfen and Hans von Hopfen are two articles about the same person and content on exactly the same topic. So, I believe they should be merged. I've put the templates described in WP:Merge, but, as I'm not contributor of the English Wikipedia I don't think I will be able to follow this proposal. can someone takes care about it, please? Tpt (talk) 09:35, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
- I found it uncomfortable to have both articles Southern Pacific class GS-6 and Southern Pacific 4460 existing. Probably, it's best to move the latter to the former. The articles are too simililar, and I also want to see original and uncited content to be handled (the nicknames, for example). Ctempire (talk) 21:21, 15 May 2013 (UTC)

- N Not done. This proposal involves converting a list into a full-blown article. There are problems with this in that the list is transcluded into List of newspapers in the United States#Wyoming. Note the comment on the top of that file--a similar comment is on other analogous state lists as well:
!-- Note to future editors: this article is copied by transclusion into the article "List of newspapers in the United States". Only include links here unless you plan to rewrite that article to use part of the list here, such as for listing only major papers on the main page. Include anything relevant to this page only - things that should only show on this page and not be carried back to the main article - by placing it between blocks. Also, make sure there is nothing - no CR - before a if one is not to be included in the upstream article, or occurs after the , or an extra blank line will be sent back to the calling article

- The apparently reverted merge and re-opened discussion is duplicated above (in March 2013).
- Mattel v. MCA Records should be merged with Barbie Girl - A WP:BOLD merge was undone by User:TJRC, citing "court case is more than song, also defamation; having a separate article allows legal issues to be discussed that would be off-topic here." This is an invalid rationale being that the lawsuit happened as a direct result of the song making fun of Barbie and bearing its name. Had the song been named something else, it would not have happened. Since the lawsuit has been settled, it is very unlikely that any new information will come up in the near future (even if that was the case, a merge can easily be undone). Starting a discussing would be rather pointless because Mattel v. MCA Records is a low class article not watched by many editors and had minimal edits since its creation over three years ago. This is how the merged article looks like and it seems perfectly okay by me. Before it is done again, though, I suggest you speak one-on-one with User:TJRC because he will likely revert it, being the only editor opposing a merge of any kind. The Legendary Ranger (talk) 22:02, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

- This is probably the wrong noticeboard for your request, as the merge has already happened (even though it was subsequently reversed). Have/Did you start(ed) a discussion along these lines at the article Talk? That should be a first step, then you would have Third Opinion or Comment requests available to you.

- Requesting merge of User:MoonSwan999/sandbox into The Liverpool Herald to maintain editing history of my sandbox. This sandbox was created as part of an editing workshop today WP:GLAM/SLNSW and other people offsite assisted in it. We didn't know that the article already existed at the start. So, the content in the sandbox can overwrite the whole content of the article, but we don't want to lose the edit history of either. Please ask user:Wittylama if there's any problem. Sincerely, MoonSwan999 (talk) 04:50, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

- Jazzy Jordan is the Executive Vice President of Verity Gospel Music Group. The entire Jazzy Jordan article consists of 1) Jordan's résumé (including career accomplishments and "early life"), 2) two of Jordan's personal ventures ("Jordan Entertainment Group", which never got off the ground, and a one-year Indy 500 car co-ownership), and 3) successful VGMG albums that occurred while Jordan was with the company. This person, in my opinion, is entirely non-notable. A deletion discussion a year ago never gained any traction -- because no one cared enough about the article to bother even starting a talk page.

- Anna Månsdotter and Yngsjö murder - An IP user recently merged the two articles (and did it pretty well), but this was soon reverted by User:BabbaQ because nothing was discussed first. However, after seeing how the merged article looks like, I think it is a good idea to merge them again. The articles have almost the same information and are not that long in length. In fact, very little is known about Mrs. Mansdotter other than her involvement in Yngsjo's murder. Had it not been for this, no one would know who she is today. Because both articles have blank talk pages and a low number of edits since their creation, starting a discussion would be pointless since few people are monitoring them. This is a case where merging through WP:Bold is an effective solution. The Legendary Ranger (talk) 17:43, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

- Please check. Straight-two engine and introductory portions of V-twin engine and Flat-twin engine (only) to Two-cylinder engine.
Essentially, what we are trying to do here is create a new master page, or super-categorisation, for all two cylinder engines leading to sub- or child pages for individual configurations.
- The intention here is to resolve a problem that has arisen relating to the three main groups of 'non-V' or 'non-flat' twins, i.e. transverse or parallel twins, inline or longitudinal twins, and tandem twins. At present three configurations are being shoehorned into a single article called "Straight-two engine", which arguably is a far more obscure and minor terminology for some engine configurations and not used widely by manufacturers. The previously unreferenced topic being started by a non-native English speaker, sometime ago and the preponderance of references suggesting this does not meet Wikipedia naming conventions, as per WP:NAME; Recognizability, Naturalness, Precision, Conciseness, Consistency, English language use etc.
- The idea is as sufficient content arises, new child page can be developed off the new parent. --Bridge Boy (talk) 19:11, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
