Articles for Deletion - Proposed Mergers - Proposed Splits - Proposed Name Changes
Overview
Mergeto.png

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

LEGO Pin 1 through LEGO Pin x - LEGO pins

They are pins. They all say LEGO. They were all from the same year. They all consist of a picture and one line. There is no need for 14 pages for them. ~ CJC 20:37, January 13, 2013 (UTC)

  • Support 15 months late, but you know. :P Berrybrick (talk) 20:00, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Woody (DUPLO) to Woody, Jessie (DUPLO) to Jessie, Bullseye (DUPLO) to Bullseye (Toy Story)

Same characters ~ CJC 20:59, January 16, 2013 (UTC)

  • I don't really have a strong opinion either way, but I'll support. (Don't Buzz and the LGM also have DUPLO figures?) Berrybrick 03:22, February 17, 2013 (UTC)
  • Hmm, minifigures across different themes (eg, Batman in Batman and in Super Heroes) I'm completely fine with, but I'm not sure if I really like characters in different toylines together.... weak oppose :S NovaHawk 04:00, February 17, 2013 (UTC)
  • Very weak oppose, per NHL... User:Cligra/Sig
  • Support pages are kinda useless IMNO Soupperson1 Friends are Forever! <3Friends girls.jpg
  • @NHL - we put microfigures on the same page. ~ CJC 19:28, February 27, 2013 (UTC)

Palace Guard (Star Wars) merge to Skiff Guard

Unless stated otherwise by the video game (I don't have any of them) there is no such minifigure. And the images provided on the page are those of a Skiff Guard anyways. Jeyo Lord VladekTalk The Forge 03:10, February 17, 2013 (UTC)

  • I think they are different. Berrybrick 03:23, February 17, 2013 (UTC)
  • They are - Palace Guard protects Jabba, the Skiff Guard makes sure everything goes to plan when they need to use the Saarlac Pit. -Czech
    • The minifigures displayed on the page are Skiff Guards, though. Were palace guards ever seen in the game? Jeyo Lord VladekTalk The Forge 06:07, February 17, 2013 (UTC)
      • I think that there was a playable character called Palace Guard. Berrybrick 22:35, February 17, 2013 (UTC)

Dragonfly Bug merge with TBA Galaxy Squad Alien 2

At first glance they might seem different, but they are actually the same. TBA Galaxy Squad Alien 2 is Dragonfly Bug, but placed upside down by the toy fair with the horns facing the wrong way. Also, if you look closely, TBA Galaxy Squad Alien 2 also has wings under it. User:Omega X.23/sig --Omega X.23 (talk) 08:13, February 17, 2013 (UTC)

  • Merge, as a nominator.--Omega X.23 (talk) 08:25, February 17, 2013 (UTC)

I didn't know that latter page existed when creating Dragonfly Bug, as it wasn't being linked to. *facepalm* Now I feel stupid. :P User:BrickfilmNut/sig

Doorlock Homes and Detective (Minifigures) merge to Detective (Minifigures)

Entirely identical minifigures, the only difference being that in LEGO City Undercover the character is given a more concrete name (Doorlock Homes), and I think we all know by now that LEGO is bad at keeping names consistent across various forms of media - even with collectible minifigures. For example, in LEGO Universe, the collectible minifigures were given names (to name a few, the Series 1 Robot was named Axon Klaxon and the Series 2 Disco Dude was named Barry Smoothmoves), yet Brickipedia just mentions those names on their main pages instead of making entirely separate pages for the same character under a different name. So, I don't see why we should do anything different here.

Not really related to the merge, but one interesting thing I noticed while comparing the two to check for differences was that LEGO can't seem to decide on exactly how the face of the Dectective/Doorlock Homes looks; specifically, the color of his sideburns. They're gray on the physical minifigure, but in digital appearances (including in LEGO City Undercover) they're black. Just an interesting side note. Jamesster.LEGO (talk) 05:26, 3/24/2013

Discussion

Some Ninjago stuff

I just came across this page and clicked through to find that it only included two extras. Then I got thinking, do characters like Red Hat Ninjago Pirate really need their own page when they are essentially just extras themselves? I went through the Ninjago template and also found these which I think can be merged:

In addition I also think that Bizzaro Jay, Bizzaro Kai, Bizzaro Cole, and Bizzaro Zane should either be on this list, or all be included on "Bizzaro Ninja". I don't think that they are noteworthy enough on their own, but maybe together. Berrybrick

Move Red Hat Ninjago Pirate, Unknown Ninjago Pirate, Unknown Ninjago Pirate 2, First Mate (Ninjago) into Captain Soto's Crew. Captain Soto and No eyed Pete could possibly stay. The ones I would have to say must stay are Kai's Father, Lou (he has major roles in several episodes), The First Spinjitzu Master (if we're making pages of ancient Chima animals then we should do it with him). Characters that could keep their own pages are Mystake (roles in multiple episodes), Mailman (Ninjago) (has roles in multiple episodes), (excuse me I need to check links to other characters and refresh myself on what their role was) --{{SUBST:User:ErkelonJay/sig}} (talk) 16:17, March 30, 2013 (UTC)

  • Did you notice this page? I think that they could all go there, but with those as headings. :P Berrybrick 21:25, March 30, 2013 (UTC)
  • Not with redirects. Well, maybe on Wikia because they take forever to search for, but.... Berrybrick 23:38, April 8, 2013 (UTC)
  • *BUMP* (I'm just going to go ahead and do it if this is ignored again :P) Berrybrick (talk) 19:56, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
  • Doing it. I'm going to leave Captain Soto, Kai's Father, Lou, and the First Spinjitzu Master alone though. Maybe a couple others. :P Berrybrick (talk) 19:30, 20 March 2014 (UTC)

IG-86, merge into Elite Assassin Droid

  • Merge as nominator. Identical figures, and IG-86 isn't referring to an individual like how IG-88 is referring to IG-88B, it's just referring to a generic IG-86 droid. In 7930's shop description, the droid is referred to as " IG-86 Assassin Droid Bounty Hunter", which is sort of like both names combined, indicating they're the same.

Cinderella (mini-doll) and Cinderella merge to Cinderella, Ariel (mini-doll) and Ariel merge to Ariel, etc.

I'm setting this up for Soupperson1. Berrybrick 17:11, November 9, 2013 (UTC)

Discussion

ShadoWind and Lavertus merge to Lavertus

These articles should be merged as they -- according to recent info -- concern the same character and "Shadowind" is simply another variation of Lavertus.

Discussion

--ToaMeiko (talk) 02:02, 3 February 2014 (UTC)
  • If they definitely are- speedy merge. NovaHawk 02:08, 3 February 2014 (UTC)
  • Totes Soup

Bricksburg, The Wild West, Middle Zealand, Cloud Cuckoo Land, and The Ocean to...something else.

I don't think that each section needs its own page, especially when in the past articles have typically been one page per universe's world. Kingdom of Chima comes to mind, and I think that we have one for Ninjago too. I don't know what we would call it though. I think that Wyldstyle referred to it as "The Universe," so I'd say "Universe (The LEGO Movie)" but I can't be sure. Any other ideas?

Discussion

  • As nominator, I support merging, but I'm not quite sure what the new page should be yet. Berrybrick (talk) 19:53, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
  • K CJC95 (talk) 23:07, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
  • support? --LK901 17:05, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
  • Since it doesn't seem they were merged yet, I'll support. BrickfilmNut (talk) 15:31, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

Brotherhood of Makuta and Makuta (Species and Title) merge to Brotherhood of Makuta

Just seems like the least convoluted and confusing thing to do for a theme that is convoluted and confusing.

Discussion

Flame and Raja, merge to Part:15633

  • Even though I do so much enjoy being reverted all the time without any discussion taking place, I thought I'd set up a proposed merger just for laughs. You know, like what how it should have been set up as a proposed split in the first place, but the opposite. NovaHawk 00:27, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

Discussion

  • Merge. They're both the same piece. There doesn't need to be two pages for one piece. Different characters? Big deal, use subheadings, like how it was. NovaHawk 00:27, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
  • Merge Okay Berrybrick (talk) 00:41, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
  • Stay Eh different accessories means we can't use the accessory part of the info box, different characters mean different backgrounds. Also they're found in different themes. A lot of animals are the same piece but are on different pages. Soupperson1 Friends are Forever! <3Friends girls.jpg
    • Where? First one I've seen that's been split NovaHawk 11:42, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
  • Stay - I see the point of staying split, more than I see the point of merging I guess. Neither page claims to be a part page. If its going to be a part page, it shouldn't be merged to "Tiger" but to whatever part pages are called these days. CJC95 (talk) 15:50, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
    • Oh yeah, my bad, it should totally be a part page. Changed in header NovaHawk 22:59, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
  • Weak stay per CJC. BrickfilmNut (talk) 15:33, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

Necromancer of Dol Guldur merge to Sauron

Merge
  1. Because they're the same and don't really have any sort of personality differences? NovaHawk 13:02, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
  2. 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
  1. We have different pages for Bruce Wayne and Batman. Soupperson1 Friends are Forever! <3Friends girls.jpg
    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! <3Friends girls.jpg

KC705 Spider-Man Key Chain merge to 851027 Spider-Man Key Chain

These are the exact same. I don't know the policy on this but two pages for the exact same thing seems useless. In the notes we could just write that another ID for 851027 was KC705. If you don't believe so, I can easily Copy/Paste a description from 851027 into KC705. But it seems rather useless seeing as all the Spider-Man 2 keychains are singular other than Spidey himself. Who has two.

  • Merge, as nominator. -User:Nexus
  • Stay : Kabaya sets were in the same boat as this yet they were still marketed under different product codes BrikkyyTalk 10:34, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
    • "KC" product codes aren't official- they're fan-made (I think the "KC" line originates from BrickLink). They were from a time when we didn't know such item numbers because they weren't printed on the keychain NovaHawk 12:00, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
  • No-brainer merge- they're the same NovaHawk 12:00, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
  • Merge. Nominating these for merger was actually in an ancient to-do list of mine. BrickfilmNut (talk) 15:37, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
  • There is no requirement for a merger (proposal*) - somewhere in the MoS it will state that official names should be used if possible, and one of these names is unofficial. CJC95 (talk) 16:54, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
    • The starred bit was edited in after Meiko said "Per CJC". CJC95 (talk) 20:15, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
  • Per CJC --ToaMeiko (talk) 17:55, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

600px-Yes check.svg.png Done. it's just common sense. NovaHawk 23:02, 26 February 2015 (UTC)


Mind Control Orb and Mind Control Orb 2.0 merge to Mind Control Orb

These two objects are identical in appearance, and in function as well.
