Forum:CT:Merging of R5-D2 and R5-G8

This page is an archive of a community-wide discussion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made in the Senate Hall or new Consensus Track pages rather than here so that this page is preserved as a historic record.
The result of the debate was no consensus, should be handled on the articles' talk pages. jSarek 02:56, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Same droid, different names. Anyone got any objection to these two articles being merged? Meatbag47 15:38, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

• Not entirely the same droid. When R5 got its memory wiped, it was upgraded and got the G8 designation. I'm fine with combining R5-D2 and R5-G8 or not though. -Fnlayson 17:26, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
• I'd say go for it. The Anakin/Vader merge is probably precedent for something like this. Kuralyov 17:41, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
• Why was a CT was even started to begin with? The {{merge}} tag (or one of its variants) should be placed at the top of the article in question and the discussion done on the talk page. Isn't that what that tag is for? Although I think they should remain separate. - JMAS 18:06, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
