Proposed article mergers is anoticeboard for active discussions to merge articles. Before listing a merge discussion here, readWikipedia:Merging and initiate a discussion on the article's talk page. Listing an ongoing merge discussion here is purely optional, but can help reach consensus.
This noticeboard isnot for:
Proposing mergers without starting a discussion on the article's talk page. Listings that do not link to a merge discussion may be removed from this noticeboard.
Discussing proposed merges. A link to the merge discussion should be included in the listing and consensus to merge should be reached there, not on this noticeboard. Comments of support or opposition may be removed.
If a merge is unlikely to be contested, you canbe bold and complete it without initiating a discussion. If your merge is later contested, another editor canrevert and discuss it. To see all articles currently tagged for merging, see§ All articles proposed for merging, as well asCategory:Articles to be merged. If consensus to merge is reached on the article's talk page, the listing on this noticeboard should be moved into the section§ Articles currently being merged and tagged with{{Await}} '''Awaiting merge...'''. If consensusagainst merging is reached, the listing can be tagged with{{Not done}} and it will be archived.
To tag the articles and initiate a merge discussion, follow the instructions atWikipedia:Merging § Procedure. Once the articles have been tagged and a discussion has been opened, you can list the merge discussion to thebottom of this list using the format:
MergeSUNY Downstate Medical Center intoSUNY Downstate Health Sciences University. Both articles describe the same institution, which operates under the unified name "SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University" and includes educational components (College of Medicine, School of Public Health, etc.) and University Hospital. The scope of the articles seem slightly different with the latter of the two only discussing educational components. If any arm of the university warrants a seperate article, it would probably be University Hospital, but theSUNY Downstate Medical Center#University Hospital of Brooklyn section seems too scant to stand on its own yet. Posting here for guidance since I’m a new editor.Hypogea (talk)22:52, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
MergeList of academic fields intoOutline of academic disciplines. The lists almost entirely overlap. There was already a merge discussion initiated on both talk pages, but it didn't turn into a merge proposal. The lists are very extensive, and there are significant structural differences that might benefit from discussion and feedback before merging, especially fromWP:WPLIST. I'm not an experienced editor and don't know how to get this started.正负号 (talk)18:22, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
MergeHuế withHuế (provincial city). With the entirety of Thừa Thiên Huế province being upgraded into a centrally-administered city, the latter article is now both defunct and redundant, and should be merged into the main page. The Climate, Culture and Infrastructure sections have already been copied over and are identical between the two pages, so there's only the Geography and History sections left to be ported over.--Pantegral (talk)14:51, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
MergeDWPM toDZMM. The Metro Manila station on 630 kHz that used the DWPM callsign reverts back to the old callsign (DZMM) at 8 PM (Philippine time) of May 29th as per relevant wiki policies on radio station callsigns. This will ensure a linear continuation of a station's history rather than having a divergent article that ultimately had a short lifespanKuyaStephenAlaEH (talk)11:28, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
MergeWicked (film franchise) intoThe Wicked Years. Considering that the film adaptation was originally supposed to be one film before it was split in half, it feels egregious to have an entire page dedicated to the adaptation and to imply that there are more films in the works, especially whenWicked: For Good hasn't even come out yet. A better alternative would be to have a general franchise page with information related to the original novels, the stage musical, and the two-part film. Although the musical and film adaptations are more closely tied to each other than the novels, all three share the same general plot, characters, and themes. In mysandbox I've drafted a hypothetical version of what the final merged page could be like.J·B·D (talk)20:17, 17 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
MergeObvious strategyproofness intoStrategyproofness. A stub subtopic that should be up-merged. It was boldly merged but reverted. Little discussion happening, so more input needed for consensus.
MergeHyperthermophile intoThermophile (for the title, but the content of the first article should be kept, being more qualitative). Rationale: hyperthermophiles are juste a peculiar case of thermophiles, and the content of the article "hyperthermophile" could perfectly fit as a paragraph in the article "thermophile" (the latter article even has an intermediate category "extreme thermophiles", which understandably has no separate article).176.159.12.72 (talk)20:18, 28 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
When there is consensus to merge, please move the requestto the bottom of this list. If you are currently working on the merge, reply to the request with{{doing}}. When the merge has been completed, reply to the request with{{Merge done}} and it will be archived.
@Tenshi Hinanawi, Hello, I noticed you reverted the merge ofAbortion in Egypt, citing that no content was merged. However, the content is already present (same or similar) inAbortion under Egyptian law, and the consensus at the Talk page was to merge and redirect.
The merge discussion is closed, and the result was to merge the two, as noted by multiple editors. Let me know if you believe some unique content was omitted, happy to review that. Otherwise, I’ll proceed with restoring the merge.
The sentence covering the fatwa issued by Muhammad Sayyid Tantawy and the section covering unsafe abortions I think should be merged, as those are not duplicative of existing content in the article.Tenshi! (Talk page)19:53, 31 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
