Merging items[edit]

Hallo Jon Harald Søby,

For merging items, you may want to use the merge.js gadget from help page about merging. It has an option "Request deletion for extra items on RfD" to automatically place a request to delete the empytied page. This way of nominating makes it a lot easier for the admins to process the requests.

With regards, - User:CycnUser:CycnUser:CycnUser:Cycn - (Cycn/talk) 14:17, 9 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I was just using the "Request deletion" link in the dropdown; didn't realise it had different functionality from the merge tool. I'll start using the tool from now. Thanks for the heads-up! Jon Harald Søby (talk) 14:22, 9 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
