Brickipedia:Proposed Mergers
| Overview
Proposed Mergers lists articles that are proposed to be merged into other articles. To propose an article merger, put {{Mergeto}} on the top the respective page and, then click here and replace Page 1 and Page 2 with the names of the two articles that you want to be merged together, and replace Page 3 with the name of the article you want them merged into. Please note that Page 2 and Page 3 can be the same article, if applicable. Briefly explain why you want the articles to be merged directly under the header, and then sign (~~~~) directly under the ;Support section. If you object, please supply concrete reasons for doing so. A list of past proposals is available here. NOTE: Nominations for duplicate articles (articles that are about the same set with the same set number) do not need to be placed here, as they are technically the same page. Add a {{Delete}} tag with the reason to the duplicate article instead. |

Nominations
Necromancer of Dol Guldur merge to Sauron
- Merge
- Because they're the same and don't really have any sort of personality differences? NovaHawk 13:02, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
- Merge. It's not like Bruce Wayne, where merging him with Batman's page would create a behemoth of an article. I think it's safe enough to merge these two. BrickfilmNut (talk) 15:34, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- Don't merge
- We have different pages for Bruce Wayne and Batman. Soupperson1 Friends are Forever! <3
- Because they're two different identities and very different looking minifigures- in this case it's an evil black sorcerer and an evil black sorcerer :P NovaHawk 22:48, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
- But they're the same character, these figures aren't similar either. Soupperson1 Friends are Forever! <3

The LEGO Group and LEGO merge to The LEGO Group
Not really sure how to explain, but aren't they basically the same thing? "The LEGO Group" is the official name of the company, so we could have LEGO redirect to that page.
Discussion
- Merge, as nominator. SamanthaNguyen (talk) 17:07, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
- Obviously merge, but I'd prefer calling the resulting page "LEGO" as it's shorter and definitely the more common name. For a different although nevertheless valid example from Wikipedia, consider Lady Gaga: the article starts with her real name, but the page is titled "Lady Gaga" instead of "Stefani Germanotta", because Lady Gaga — not Stefani Germanotta — is one of the best-selling musicians of all time. Confusing? Yeah, but I hope you can see what I mean.
But on a more practical note, the current The LEGO Group article is pretty much like a shorter version of the company history, which can be found on the LEGO page with lots more detail, hence why I support the merger. --Jack Phoenix (talk) 17:14, 1 October 2016 (UTC) - Keep. I wouldn't exactly say that TLG and LEGO are exactly the same entity, as LEGO is the brand and TLG is the parent company. Perhaps instead of merging the articles, we could make distinctions between the two. The TLG article could have more company history-related information, while the LEGO article could have more about the brand's history. I'll admit that it seems like a difficult line to draw but I'm sure it can be accomplished. LCF (talk!) 19:02, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
