Shortcut

This template is used to mark a page for merging with another page. It is preferable to start a discussion on the talk page of the page when using this template, to prevent potential confusion.

Pages with this template on are added to Category:Pending merge.

Usage

{{merge
| 1 = First suggested page
| 2 = Second suggested page
| reason = Additional reason
| discussAnchor = Talk page section
| discussPage = Talk page changer
| section = Section mode
}}
  • The |1= parameter set the suggested page to merge.
  • The |2= parameter defines a second page to be the merge destination.
  • The |reason= parameter add an additional reason note.
  • The |section= parameter changes the template to a section style. If 2 is specified, it also changes the message to indicate that the section and the page need to be merged into their own page.
  • The |discussAnchor= parameter changes the section name where the "discuss" button will lead on the talk page. It is added to the default talk page or the one set by the parameter below.
  • The |discussPage= parameter changes the talk page where the "discuss" button will lead.
