several good reasons to merge pages:</p> <ol> <li><span class="anchor" id="Duplicate"></span><b>Duplicate</b>: There are two or more pages on exactly the same subject, with the same scope. If a duplicate article was recently created, it may also be a candidate for speedy deletion under <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wikipedia:CSD_A10?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:CSD A10">CSD A10 criteria</a>.</li> <li><span class="anchor" id="Overlap"></span><b>Overlap</b>: There are two or more pages on related subjects that have a large overlap and might be <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wikipedia:REDUNDANT?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:REDUNDANT">WP:REDUNDANT</a>. Remember, that <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_is_not_a_dictionary?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary">Wikipedia is not a dictionary</a>; there does not need to be a separate entry for every concept. For example, "flammable" and "non-flammable" can both be explained in an article on <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Flammability?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Flammability">flammability</a>. Topics with the same name that are normally covered in a single article for example <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Greenland?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Greenland">Greenland</a> deals with both the country and island (which have similar boundaries) thus a <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Greenland_(island)?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Greenland (island)">Greenland (island)</a> article can be merged with the "Greenland" country article, see <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wikipedia:Semi-duplicate?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Wikipedia:Semi-duplicate">Wikipedia:Semi-duplicate</a>.</li> <li><span class="anchor" id="Text"></span><b>Short text</b>: If a page is very short (consisting of perhaps only one or two sentences) and is, in your opinion as editor, unlikely to be expanded within a "reasonable" (unspecified) amount of time, it often makes sense to merge it into a page on a broader topic.</li> <li><span class="anchor" id="Notability"></span><b>Insufficient notability</b>: Some topics may not reach the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wikipedia:GNG?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:GNG">general notability guidelines</a>, or more specific criteria, so merging is an <i>alternative to deletion</i>. While this can also be implemented through the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wikipedia:DISCUSSAFD?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:DISCUSSAFD">articles for deletion</a> process, merging directly may be more efficient. For example, parents or children of a celebrity <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wikipedia:NOTINHERITED?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NOTINHERITED">who themselves are otherwise unremarkable</a> are generally covered in a section of the article on the celebrity.</li> <li><span class="anchor" id="Context"></span><b>Context</b>: If a short article requires the background material or context from a broader article in order for readers to understand it. For example, minor characters from works of fiction are generally covered in a "List of characters in <work>" article (and can be merged there); see also <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(fiction)?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Wikipedia:Notability (fiction)">Wikipedia:Notability (fiction)</a>.</li> </ol> <p><span class="anchor" id="NOTMERGE"></span> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1252059228"></p> <div class="module-shortcutanchordiv"> <span id="WP:NOTMERGE"></span><span id="WP:NOMERGE"></span> </div> <div class="module-shortcutboxplain noprint" role="note"> <div class="module-shortcutlist"> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wikipedia:Shortcut?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Wikipedia:Shortcut">Shortcuts</a> </div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1126788409"> <div class="plainlist"> <ul> <li><span class="plainlinks"><a class="external text" href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=auto&tl=en&hl=en-GB&u=https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title%3DWikipedia:NOTMERGE%26redirect%3Dno">WP:NOTMERGE</a></span></li> <li><span class="plainlinks"><a class="external text" href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=auto&tl=en&hl=en-GB&u=https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title%3DWikipedia:NOMERGE%26redirect%3Dno">WP:NOMERGE</a></span></li> </ul> </div> </div> <p>Merging should be avoided if:</p> <ol> <li>The resulting article would be <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_size?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Wikipedia:Article size">too long or "clunky"</a>, or</li> <li>The separate topics could be expanded into longer standalone (but cross-linked) articles</li> </ol> </section> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(2)"> <span class="indicator mf-icon mf-icon-expand mf-icon--small"></span> <h2 id="Proposing_a_merge" data-mw-thread-id="h-Proposing_a_merge"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Proposing_a_merge"></span><span class="anchor" id="MERGEINIT"></span>Proposing a merge<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Proposing_a_merge"></span></h2> </div> <section class="mf-section-2 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-2"> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1252059228"> <div class="module-shortcutanchordiv"> <span id="WP:MERGEINIT"></span><span id="WP:MERGEPROP"></span> </div> <div class="module-shortcutboxplain noprint" role="note"> <div class="module-shortcutlist"> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wikipedia:Shortcut?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Wikipedia:Shortcut">Shortcuts</a> </div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1126788409"> <div class="plainlist"> <ul> <li><span class="plainlinks"><a class="external text" href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=auto&tl=en&hl=en-GB&u=https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title%3DWikipedia:MERGEINIT%26redirect%3Dno">WP:MERGEINIT</a></span></li> <li><span class="plainlinks"><a class="external text" href="https://translate.google.com/website?sl=auto&tl=en&hl=en-GB&u=https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title%3DWikipedia:MERGEPROP%26redirect%3Dno">WP:MERGEPROP</a></span></li> </ul> </div> </div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238436933"> <table class="plainlinks ombox ombox-notice" role="presentation"> <tbody> <tr> <td class="mbox-image"><span typeof="mw:File"><span> <noscript> <img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/40px-Information_icon4.svg.png" decoding="async" width="40" height="40" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="620" data-file-height="620"> </noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 40px;height: 40px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/40px-Information_icon4.svg.png" data-alt="" data-width="40" data-height="40" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/60px-Information_icon4.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/80px-Information_icon4.svg.png 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </span></span></span></td> <td class="mbox-text">Need help?
