Merger proposal

[edit]

There are currently two articles for the same club - West Wales Raiders Rugby League and West Wales Raiders. The latter includes information about former club South Wales Scorpions/Ironmen so I think that info should probably be kept, and the page renamed. I know *nothing* about rugby league though, so comments welcome! Cavie78 (talk) 12:13, 4 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It is vitally important that the history of semi-professional Rugby League in South Wales is not lost and the information regarding the South Wales Scorpions / South Wales Ironmen and their takeover by West Wales Raiders is documented. This should not be lost or history forgotten about. Posted by R.O'Brien 9/10/2018

Comment @Cavie78: I would merge it the other way, i.e. West Wales Raiders Rugby League into West Wales Raiders as per WP:COMMONNAME and to keep the older article history log in tact and in the same place. There is a precedent for teams changing names etc. for example Liverpool Stanley had 8 incarnations, one of which (Runcorn Highfield) had a separate article and was subsequently merged into the main one.
