Merger proposal edit
I propose to merge John T. Smith (blues musician into J.T. Smith (musician). The articles are clearly describing the same person. Nashona (talk)
- I agree with you. - Derek R Bullamore (talk) 16:00, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
- Sufficient time has elapsed and I can see no logical reason why this merger should not now be effected. Thanks, - Derek R Bullamore (talk) 22:52, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Derek R Bullamore: no doubt a merge is appropriate, the only question being the direction. You created J. T. Smith (musician) in 2016, duplicating the 2015 John T. Smith (blues musician) article. Perhaps merge to the older article. John T. Smith (blues musician), in the absence of other arguments. Klbrain (talk) 17:32, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
- Personally I am not really bothered which goes into which, although it is preferable to retain the guts of the J. T. Smith (musician) article, which is the more 'meaty version'. - Derek R Bullamore (talk) 17:39, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
- Wouldn't it make most sense if the article with fewer refs is merged into the one with more refs? I'm just amused that Derek managed to edit both articles, without noticing... Oops! Ghmyrtle (talk) 19:59, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

- But not quite as daft as the time that has elapsed since this merger was proposed. As an 'interested party' I feel it is not appropriate for me to effect this. Can someone else make it happen ? Thanks - Derek R Bullamore (talk) 14:22, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
