Talk:Nana Otafrija Pallbearing

Merger proposal

It has been suggested that Nana Otafrija Pallbearing and Dancing Pallbearers be merged – this seem to be correct, as they are about the same subject, but the question is to which article the merge should take place. I would suggest to this article, as it is the proper name of the company, and then keeping "Dancing Pallbearers" as a redirect to here, as it's the more likely search term.

• Merge: Agreed, the two should be merged, as they seem to be a question of the official name as compared to the common name, which is unimportant in this context. — Javert2113 (Siarad.|¤) 18:27, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
• Merge: "Dancing Pallbearers" should be a redirect. ^Falling_Gravity 05:50, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
• Merge to this article. This is a duplicate topic and the meme material can be a section. -- Whpq (talk) 00:55, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
• Merge: We should let "Dancing Pallbearers" be a direct. The official name is "Nana Otafrija Pallbearing". RuiyuShen 01:18, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
• Oppose There's a distinction between the particular troupe and the more general concept, which goes back further. People were dancing at funerals in Ancient Egypt and jazz funerals go back some time. Dancing Pallbearers should direct to general coverage of dancing funerals which the particular troupe can be mentioned. Andrew🐉(talk) 17:30, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
  • That may be the case, the dancing pall bearer article is specifically about a meme about this group of pall bearers and a more general concept of dancing pall bearers as part of funeral rites. The meme article would be a lousy starting point for an article on the general concept. If you have an issue the redirect, that certainly can be addressed, but should not stop merging of the material. -- Whpq (talk) 17:47, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
• Merge. "Dancing Pallbearers" should be a redirect. Henry20090 (talk) 16:12, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
• Merge to this title per above. Jalen Folf (talk) 06:43, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
• I agree with them, It should be a redirect. Abdullah Al Manjur (talk) 09:22, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
• Strong merge Dancing Pallbearers with Nana Otafrija Pallbearing. As the viral video is clearly associated with this article's subject, they must be put together in this article for encyclopedic purpose. Optakeover^(U)(T)(C) 10:55, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
• Merge Per above. flixwito ^(•‿•)^ 11:55, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

• Just merge it. Enjoyer of World (talk) 07:37, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

• Merge this article into the meme; the meme is notable, these pallbearers are not. Sceptre (talk) 23:57, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
• Merge these two articles, to a meme as it is already, it would make more sense and you won't get confused with this hilarious meme. Rawsar (talk) 08:48, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
• Merge Dancing Pallbearers into Nana Otafrija Pallbearing. The meme is a subtopic of the pallbearing business, and thus "Dancing Pallbearers" should be the redirect into an article subsection within the main article at "Nana Otafrija Pallbearing". --benlisquare_T•C•E 04:06, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
• Merge. We should merge the articles as they are about essentially the same thing. Me (talk) 11:21, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
• Merge These two articles are about the same topic. ScratchyGamer314 (talk) 06:19, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
• Strong Merge Dancing Pallbearers into Nana Otafrija Pallbearing I would prefer merging Nana Otafrija Pallbearing into Dancing Pallbearers since they are not the only ones and from the user's perspective they wouldn't go searching for the full name, they might not even recollect. →Enock4seth ^(talk) 20:31, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
