I am nominating this featured article for review because... Pharaoh496 (talk) 10:41, 11 April 2024 (UTC) It was full of cruft, fake infobox, etc. Have merged it into parent article.[reply]

No opinion • Merge discussion. • Article just before merge. --RobertG ♬ talk 11:14, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Pharaoh496 does not appear to have followed WP:MERGE in any meaningful way, so the merge should be reverted and a proper discussion should take place. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 11:57, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is a merge discussion ongoing that seems to be headed for a merge result; will leave this open for the moment in anticipation of a likely procedural delist. Nikkimaria (talk) 04:27, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I've closed the discussion as consensus to merge. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 03:04, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The discussion has ended with consensus to merge Pharaoh496 (talk) 12:43, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment in my limited understanding of the FAR process, I believe this needs a featured article review coordinators to close this discussion. I have requested one at Wikipedia talk:Featured article review. If this is the wrong process, then please do the correct process instead :) . Joseph2302 (talk) 12:51, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Should the merge takes place while this is an FA? Or after? Pharaoh496 (talk) 10:10, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The FAR will be closed after the merger is complete. Hog Farm Talk 14:16, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Hog Farm: So when will the merge be done? Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 18:33, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Whenever someone gets around to doing so. That will not be me; I've busy IRL and have essentially no interest in this topic area. Hog Farm Talk 17:03, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Since nobody apparently cares to merge, I've just redirected the article to the proposed merge target. If anything is deemed necessary to add to the merge target (which is already over 13,000 words long), it can be taken from the article history. Hog Farm Talk 13:23, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind, I've been reverted by Jpeeling (FWIW, there's been a consensus to merge since the April discussion, not just the 10-day old AFD). Hog Farm Talk 15:41, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The AFD which only just closed had 7 !votes for merge and none for redirect. WP:PROMERGE states: "Don't just redirect the source page without copying any content if any good content from the source page exists." The fact the article was a FA suggests there's good content here. I fail to see why there has been such a rush to redirect. My edit to restore has been reverted and I will not be getting into an edit war about it. JP (Talk) 08:00, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Given that the current target article is approaching the upper bounds of WP:TOOBIG - what content from this article exactly should be merged over? Hog Farm Talk 21:06, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
