Is there a way to merge articles on a wiki? Thanks for any help! Swannietalk to me 21:58, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
- Article merging has to be done manually (although I'm sure someone could or already has made a bot that does the bare basics). --Imaginationac (Talk | Edits | Email) 23:08, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
- Depends on what you want to merge, if you are merging histories first you have to delete the original article, then move the one that you want to move, then delete it again, then restore (by doing this you can restore both articles histories but it is tricky when reviewing history and more if both articles are been edited near same times producing intercalation of histories) then you have to do the final touches as the content and context of the article is to complex for a bot to do it.
- If you are not taking care of histories just have to add the text from one article to the other one --Cizagna (Talk) 14:53, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
