"विकिपीडिया:Merging" च्या आवृत्तींत अंतर

* If the intended destination is a combination page that does not exist, do not create its talk page, as it may be speedilyquickly deleted ([[WPWikipedia:CSDQuick deletion#G8]]) or nominated at [[Wikipedia:MiscellanyRequests for deletion]].

While mergers are generally not proposed [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion#Before nominating an article for deletion|from the onset]] of [[Wikipedia:ArticlesRequests for deletion|ArticlesRequests for Deletion (AfDRfD) discussions]] (also see [[Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Alternatives to deletion]]), it is not uncommon for editors, in an effort to mediate and/or compromise, to suggest that the article(s) nominated for deletion instead be ''merged'' to a parent article. If there is a rough consensus for a merger at the end of a deletion discussion, the following template is placed at the top of the nominated article:

''Merge'' is one of the outcome options that can be considered at a [[Wikipedia:Deletion process#Deletion discussion|deletion discussion]]. See [[WP:ATD-M]]. Deletion discussions generally reach a broader spectrum of editors than a particular talk page. As such, talk page merger requests proposed after a deletion discussion, such as at [[Wikipedia:ArticlesRequests for deletion|ArticlesRequests for deletion]], where the ''merge'' outcome option was raised by someone participating in the deletion discussion, should identify and overcome the reason(s) listed in the deletion discussion when requesting an action different from the outcome of that deletion discussion. This does not apply if a ''merge'' outcome option was not raised by someone participating in the deletion discussion. Alternatives to talk page merger requests that follow a deletion discussion include formally relisting the page for deletion through an appropriate deletion discussion venue or posting a request at [[Wikipedia:Deletion review]].
