It has been suggested that this article or section be merged with [[Template:{{{1}}}|{{{1}}}]]. (Discuss) |
Description
This template will flag the page or page section and add the page to the Category:Articles to be merged.
Usage
- You tag the article that needs to be merged into/with the Article_1 as follows:
{{Merge | Article_1}}(no square brackets). - Optionally, the Discuss link may be directed to a page/section title as follows:
{{Merge|Article_1|discuss=Page#Section title}}
For consistency throughout this wiki please
- Add a reason on the article's discussion page.
- Remember that capitalization matters, i.e.,
- Merge not merge, and
- Article_1 not article_1
- Place the template at the top of the page or section.
- It probably serves to alert the reader sooner of alternate pages when it is at the top.
- Consider this comment, olpc:OLPC talk:Cleanup#overzealous merge tags, about when to use the template.
Usage example:
Any Headline text
some text ...
Merge this section only? {{Merge | Article_1}}
More Headline text
some text ...
Last Headline text section
Merge this page? {{Merge | Article_1}}
