Proposed merger

[edit]

I encourage merging the short disambiguation pages WAL and Wal into a single combined page consistent with WP:DPAGE, rather than continuing to maintain two independent & incomplete versions of the same material, which can confuse Wikipedia tools & readers alike. WAL has a few more incoming & outgoing wiki links and is more common in English, but Wal has priority in the search bar and gets significantly more page-views. Although it's not clear-cut from WP:DABNAME which title to retain for the merged page, I'm currently leaning toward keeping Wal and re-directing WAL. Other opinions or objections? —Patrug (talk) 04:45, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Patrug: Go for WP:BOLD, this sort of thing has tons of precedents, and both disambig pages already mix up meanings for "WAL" the acronym and "Wal". I have no opinion which should be the primary disambig page name. -- intgr [talk] 12:58, 27 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the encouragement. Multiple editors have maintained both pages over the years — but if nobody objects within a week, I'll go ahead and merge them. —Patrug (talk) 02:56, 28 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
