Its better to have two areas so the history on the main rotherham united page can be more of a summery —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.13.121.96 (talkcontribs) 10:09, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • The information has just been split out from the main article because of concerns over Recentism so I do not think that a merger is appropriate. Keith D (talk) 11:16, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

STRONG MERGE It seems a bit ridiculous to have a separate page just for the history of some football club. We can't have a 'history of...' page for everything. Why not put it as a section in the original article? Claireislovely (talk) 20:05, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is an encyclopedia, its the whole point of what we do here! 92.234.175.205 (talk) 19:58, 8 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

STRONG MERGE I think if the information was compiled onto the main club article, then it would increase depth into the page and give it more chance of being a featured article. It is also easier to see the information as I didn't even know this page existed until editing the history section on the main page. Everything kept together.

The brief history is more than enough for the main page. Quantity wont make it a featured article, quality does.92.234.175.205 (talk) 19:58, 8 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • KeepThere is a precedent for having separate articles to have a more detailed history with a brief one on the main page. Strong Keep IMO. 92.234.175.205 (talk) 19:58, 8 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
