merge target? edit

Ok, so as I mentioned in my close there was a consensus to merge/redirect this article but participants neglected to mention where they thought it should be merged to. Either discuss it here or somebody just pick a target and do it already. Beeblebrox (talk) 18:31, 14 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

I suppose the main Huntingtower (novel) article makes sense. I don't have a strong preference though. Shooterwalker (talk) 23:09, 15 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
Sounds fine to me. Just because I know how our policies suggest we deal with mergeable content doesn't mean I have a strong opinion on how it's done. Jclemens (talk) 04:35, 16 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
While in principle I'd prefer what seemed to be Jclemens's suggestion of a four-way merge between this and the three novel articles, in practice the novel articles are currently different enough in structure that merging them would require some dedicated work (which I for one don't have time for at the moment). So in practice, merging to Huntingtower (novel) seems the best feasible option at least for now (with any suggestions for a more general merger being taken to the talk pages for the novel articles if, as and when someone wants to do it properly).

If the three novel articles were to be merged, the new article title for them would be something like "Dickson McCunn trilogy" - i.e., pretty much this article. If that is going to happen, you'd be better keeping this article, renaming it if need be, then merging the three novel articles into it. Opera hat (talk) 22:54, 16 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
