Create a place for discussion. Go to the discussion page (also known as the talk page) of one of the articles 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.
Cut and paste move fixes: To request page histories to be merged, list them at cut and paste move repairs.
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. Sign each listing or comment by typing: ~~~~
Mona Sikhs into Sikh(discuss). The former is a subsect of the latter, and while the former's article is short on detail, history, etc., the latter's article is quite complete and well-rounded, and would benefit greatly from a more complete and thorough coverage of the subject, while reducing effort and minimizing duplication of work. besiegedtalk23:11, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

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)[reply]
Yes, please can an admin history merge the sandbox into the article? We took a copy into the sandbox and edited it there with the intent to dump it back at the end, but in the end multiple editors were involved in the sandbox editing. By the way, well done finding this page MoonSwan999! --99of9 (talk) 03:38, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
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.

There is a suggestion since December 2008 on the Joaquin Trincado Mateo talk page to merge the EMECU article. EMECU is a single paragraph without any references. I concur with this recommendation and have created the respective tags, but would appreciate it if someone more skilled would complete the process. Thank you.

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)[reply]
I am sorry if I put this in the wrong location, but i stumbled on a page with a old merge tag but no merge discussion. The pages are Braulio Garcia and Braulio (singer). I thought that I should let someone who would know what they were doing look at it. --Mactrac (talk) 04:51, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• I need help moving the Controversy section of the Joan Juliet Buck into either the Asma al-Assad article and/or the Criticism section of Vogue. It overwhelms the profile. Buck seems to have been commissioned for the piece by Vogue, al-Assad's husband is responsible for many atrocities in his own county, and these points that are lost by keeping it in under Joan Juliet Buck.--Aichikawa (talk) 18:17, 13 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Dopp kit to Body hygiene kit. I have proposed that these be merged because "Dopp kit" is now merely a term that people use for their body hygiene kits. There's some significant history behind the development of the term, but I think that fits under body hygiene kit, and would help flesh out the stub. Samois98 20:23, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
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.
Please note that Bridge Boy has been blocked indefinitely for disruptive editing, etc. It is generally held by involved editors that this merger proposal was an element of his disruptiveness (is that a word?). I suggest that these merger talks be closed with the decision not to merge. Thank you. Ebikeguy (talk) 22:55, 15 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Student strike to Student protest. I have proposed that the article on "student strikes" be merged to the article on student protests because the former is nothing more than a tactic of the latter. A "student strike" is a politically charged term for what essentially is a student boycott of class, which is nothing more than a kind of student protest. I highly doubt that enough reliable information can be found to maintain it as a separate article. The discussion is ongoing at Talk:Student protest. I have requested a Third opinion, which has been addressed and is in agreement with my point. What, I would like, however, is more input, as there is still one editor who seems adamant that it be kept as a separate article. --MTLskyline (talk) 15:10, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I think humectant and dessicant are the same thing? The humectant article as it currently is seems to be describing dessicants. A humectant might have something to do with cosmetics that is a separate meaning to dessicant, but I'm not sure, can anyone help clarify? Zynwyx (talk) 10:28, 14 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Stairwell A has absolutely nothing significant to it other than it helping saved 18 lives on the September 11 attacks, so it makes sense to redirect it to the main 9/11 article and put its contents there, which can easily be done since the staircase article is extremely short and not likely to be expanded.

Hello, I would like to merge Mom (Futurama) with List of recurring Futurama characters; however, the page is visited infrequently and currently there is no consensus (1 for and 1 against); furthermore no-one has not mentioned or commented on the Wikipedia guidelines which the said page does not follow (although it is stated). Thank you, Androids101 (talk) 07:55, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Please create the destination article first. I noticed there was agreement that Musicians of the Titanic should exist. Once you've created that, copy that user page discussion into the article talk page where such discussions belong. Let me know when this is done, and I can notify WP Ships.

I propose merging TOS/360 with DOS/360. They were basically the same operating system. Most of the manuals referenced both DOS and TOS. TOS was really just a tape-only variant. The TOS/360 article is pretty minimal. Peter Flass (talk) 00:52, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I've already left noticves with the appropriate WikiProjects, but The page List of The Walking Dead (TV Series) characters is practically a duplicate of List of The Walking Dead (TV series) characters. The only difference in the title, is the capitalization of the word "series", and per Wikipedia policy it should NOT be capitalized. Since both lists are large and may have had different information added to them, they should be merged instead of doing a simple redirect, so that no original information is missed.
