Proposed Merge

[edit]

There seems to be doubt over the notability of some individual CDs of Doctor Who spin-off audio plays. Many don't have enough secondary references to show notability and also the coverage is often limited to a cast list and a two line synopsis.

I am wondering if a merge might help, with either one article representing the whole Cyberman series. Amalgamated the range may be more noteworthy than the individual releases within it.

The downside to this proposal is: who would do it. No-one in Wikiproject Doctor Who has been interested enough to claim this article.

But if anyone is reading- do you agree/disagree? Rankersbo (talk) 18:47, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Seems sensible to merge rather than delete, if htose are the choices. I've just been looking around for sources for this (was it reviewed in DWM? Is DWM considerred reliable as a source?) StuartDouglas (talk) 10:08, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
They're reliable enough and substantively cover the topic. I'll get on with the merge as no-one has complained. Rankersbo (talk) 06:24, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
That's much neater and more useful now, imo. Might be an idea to do the same thing for the Dalek Empire series (e.g. http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Dalek_War)? StuartDouglas (talk) 09:48, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The old articles had much that was duplicated from article to article. I should be working on my MSc dissertation, so there shouldn't be a lot of effort put into this on my part ;) Rankersbo (talk) 09:55, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Given the limited information on each page, merging would be best. Perhaps so that it looks like a list of episodes page? Or something similar. -- MisterShiney 16:30, 26 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

OK merge has been performed, but there is possibly more work to do (tidy up, formatting as ep list etc. Rankersbo (talk) 13:55, 27 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
