Merge with Horseshoe Lake (Douglas County, Minnesota) edit

Latest comment: 3 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

The reason a merger was proposed is due to the GNIS ID matches on both articles. While the second reference on both pages refer to the same page of the book and there is mention of Moon Lake and Horseshoe lakes on that page in Douglas County, it is not clear which Horseshoe Lake and Moon Lake are being referenced. There should be more evidence provided on the stub to differentiate these pages and locations. Please help double check if the GNIS ID is valid for both pages.

Oppose merge, as GNIS search suggests that there are different lakes. The Moon Lake (Minnesota) one was wrong (identical to the Horseshoe Lake (Douglas County, Minnesota)) reference. A GNIS search for Moon lake in Douglas County, Minnesota does show one, but at a different location. I've changed the page, which should now be consistent with GNIS.

@Klbrain: Great, thanks! Lets go with your GNIS as the cleanup differentiation and move from there. Removing the merge suggestion. Wolfgang8741 says: If not you, then who? (talk)
