Merger proposal[edit]

This Page Should be moved to AmeriCorps VISTA as that is its proper name -209.181.16.93 (talk) 18:14, 17 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

seeing as these two articles cover the same entity they should probably be merged together--Shimonnyman (talk) 20:18, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. SteveChervitzTrutane (talk) 05:39, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Certainly as written now they are highly duplicative. The only reason I could imagine for two articles is whether they try to cover 1964-1993 and 1993- separately, but I'm not sure there is any good reason to divide things up that way. So I support the merge. Kingdon (talk) 11:32, 29 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I also support this merge. I echo Kingdon's concern about the early years, but I believe that this can be handled in a merged article. —Ost (talk) 16:19, 27 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Concern Persons looking for VISTA are typically interested in the War on Poverty and the history of the USA in the 1960s-1970s; people looking for AmeriCorps VISTA for contemporary politics. Perhaps the old VISTA article should have its name changed to "VISTA (1964-1993)", and then its synopsis could start this article? Kiefer.Wolfowitz 08:59, 21 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Logo[edit]

I added the logo so it would be in there I am unaware of the way to make an info box which would be very helpful and would be the ideal place to put the logo I am going to try and figure it out but in the meantime if someone elses knows how before i figurte it out that would be wonderful--Shimonnyman (talk) 20:24, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

They should be seperate.[edit]

The original mission and demographics of the VISTA has changed since it has merged with AmeriCorps. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.74.35.7 (talk) 19:55, 7 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
