{{Shortcut|[[WP:DA]]}}
Below is a '''list of duplicate articles''' that have been created mostly by mistake. They have to be merged into a single piece of work, and one title has to be redirected to the other (or a completely new page must be created) in accordance with [[Wikipedia:Naming conventions]] and [[Wikipedia:Canonicalization]].
 
{{Redirect|WP:PM|page moves|Wikipedia:Requested moves|page history mergers|Wikipedia:Requests for history merge|the user right for moving pages|Wikipedia:Page mover}}
Categories that need merging can be listed (together) on [[Wikipedia:Categories for deletion]] where one category will be deleted after merging into the other.
{{Shortcut|WP:PM|WP:PAM||}}
 
'''Proposed article mergers''' is a [[WP:PNB|noticeboard]] for active discussions to merge articles. Read [[Wikipedia:Merging]] and open a discussion before posting here. Help can be requested at the [[WP:Help desk|help desk]] if needed. Listing an ongoing merger discussion here is purely optional.
Although this page does not automatically update as does [[:Category:Articles to be merged]], this page has nevertheless been kept because unlike the category page, this page allows editors to make comments about the articles to be merged.
 
If a merge is unlikely to be contested, you can be [[WP:BOLD]] and complete it without listing it for discussion. It can be [[WP:BRD|reverted and discussed]] if it is contested. To see all articles tagged for merging, see {{section link||All articles tagged for merging}}, as well as [[:Category:Articles to be merged]].
If you disagree with a 'merge' indication then you can remove it, or change the template from <nowiki>{{Merge}}</nowiki> to <nowiki>{{MergeDisputed}}</nowiki> and discuss it on this page until consensus is reached.
 
This page is '''not''' for:
{{resources for collaboration}}
* Expressing the opinion that articles should be merged without starting a discussion on the article's talk page.
* Discussing merge proposals; a link to the discussion should be included in the proposal.
* Proposing article splits or moves: see [[Wikipedia:Proposed article splits]] and [[Wikipedia:Moving a page]]
* Proposing merges for things other than articles: see [[Wikipedia:Categories for discussion]] and [[Wikipedia:Templates for discussion]]
* Requesting history merges: see [[Wikipedia:Requests for history merge]]

==Merge requests==
== Proactive action: avoiding duplicates ==
{{shortcut|WP:MERGEREQ|WP:PMGO}}
The creation of duplicate articles, and the wasted effort this causes, can be '''avoided by creating lots of [[wikipedia:redirect|redirect]]s'''. Also, when creating new articles, [[wikipedia:search|search]] for existing articles on the same subject (when search is enabled).
{{see also|Category:All articles to be merged}}
Follow the instructions at [[WP:MERGEPROP]] to tag the articles and start a merge discussion. Once all articles have been tagged and a discussion has been opened, add the merge request to the '''bottom''' of this list. Requests that do not link to an active discussion '''may be removed''' from this page. If you need assistance, consider asking at the [[WP:Help desk|help desk]].
 
Example format:
[[Wikipedia:Orphaned Articles]] lists articles that aren't linked to, and may have been created when a new article was created without having searched for a previously existing article.
 
<code><nowiki>*'''Merge''' [[Source page]] into [[Destination page]]. {{Discussing|talkpage=Talk:Destination page#Section title of discussion}} ~~~~</nowiki></code>
== Mark current duplicates ==
If you find a pair of articles which appear to be duplicates, merge them! If you can't carry out the merge yourself, it is suggested that you put the following at top of each:
 
If consensus is reached to merge, the proposal can be tagged with <code><nowiki>{{await}} '''Awaiting merge...'''</nowiki></code> and placed in the successful requests section below. If consensus is reached against merging, it can be tagged with <code><nowiki>{{not done}}</nowiki></code> and it will be archived. Consensus for a merge should be reached in the linked discussion, not on this page. Comments of support or opposition '''may be removed''' from this page.
:'''<nowiki>{{merge}} [[Other article]]</nowiki>'''
 
----<!-- List begins below this line. Add new proposals to the BOTTOM of the list. -->
This marks the pages so that future viewers will see that it needs to be merged. If you know which way the merge should go, you can put the following at the top of the article where the merged material should end up:

*'''Merge''' [[SUNY Downstate Medical Center]] into [[SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University]]. Both articles describe the same institution, which operates under the unified name "SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University" and includes educational components (College of Medicine, School of Public Health, etc.) and University Hospital. The scope of the articles seem slightly different with the latter of the two only discussing educational components. If any arm of the university warrants a seperate article, it would probably be University Hospital, but the [[SUNY Downstate Medical Center#University Hospital of Brooklyn]] section seems too scant to stand on its own yet.

*'''Merge''' [[Wicked (film franchise)]] into [[The Wicked Years]].

A better alternative would be to have a general franchise page with information related to the original novels, the stage musical, and the two-part film.

Many wikipedia users prefer to avoid having tags at the top of articles, particularly if it's not relevant to the reader of the article. Consider using these tags sparingly, and use the discussion page to discuss how to merge articles where it's not obvious whether or how the article should be merged.
 
*'''Merge''' [[Obvious strategyproofness]] into [[Strategyproofness]]. A stub subtopic that should be up-merged. It was boldly merged but reverted. Little discussion happening, so more input needed for consensus.
== How articles should be merged ==
*:{{Discussing|talkpage=Talk:Strategyproofness#Merge Obvious strategyproofness here}} '''[[User:P199|<span style="color: #199199;">P&nbsp;1&nbsp;9&nbsp;9</span>]]'''&nbsp;&nbsp;<big>[[User talk:P199|✉]]</big> 13:54, 11 August 2025 (UTC)
Before you begin with the process of merging the articles, it is recommended that you take these advices into consideration:
*'''Merge''' [[General-purpose computing on graphics processing units (hardware)]] into [[General-purpose computing on graphics processing units (software)]].
*Usually, an experienced user will suggest that one article (the source) be absorbed into another (the target).
*:{{Discussing|talkpage=Talk:General-purpose computing on graphics processing units (hardware)}} [[User: Tenshi Hinanawi|Tenshi!]] ([[User talk: Tenshi Hinanawi|Talk page]]) 16:39, 14 August 2025 (UTC)
*Read both articles carefully and decide which article has the more appropriate title and content.
*'''Merge''' [[Black people and early Mormonism]] into [[Black people and Mormonism]]. {{Discussing|talkpage=Talk:Black people and Mormonism#merge proposal}} ~<span style="font-variant:small-caps">[[User:Darth Stabro|Darth Stabro]]</span><sup>[[User_talk:Darth_Stabro|Talk]]&nbsp;•&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/Darth_Stabro|Contribs]]</sup> 19:46, 14 August 2025 (UTC)
*Merge the content by copying/pasting from one window to another. Be sure not to allow any of the good content to be lost in the transfer.
*'''Merge''' [[List of people burned as heretics]] into [[Lists of executed people for religious offenses]]. {{Discussing|talkpage=Talk:Lists of executed people for religious offenses#Merging the article "List of people burned as heretics" into this}} [[User:BorysMapping|BorysMapping]] ([[User talk:BorysMapping|talk]]) 07:35, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
*While the merging takes place, it is recommended that you place the '''<nowiki>{{merging | target=</nowiki>''Target article name''<nowiki>}}</nowiki>''' template on the page that you will merge ''from'' (the source page). In this way, confusion will be avoided, as others will know that the source page is outdated, and that all further contributions should be included in the target page.
*'''Upon completion, it is critical to place a [[wikipedia:redirect|redirect]] on the page that the content has been moved ''from''.''' For example, if you move the content of "John Ronald Doe" into "John Doe" you would put a redirect on "John Ronald Doe". This helps people find the new article title and prevents others from mistakenly recreating the duplicate.
*If you copy material from one article to the other, you must explain in your edit comment that you have done so, giving the name of the source article, for example "<nowiki>Merged material from [[John Ronald Doe]] into section "Biography"</nowiki>." This is important so that all contributors to the article can be properly credited, as required by the [[GFDL]].
 
== Successful requests, merger pending ==
Alternatively, you could also leave the two pages distinct (without a redirect), but complete the text of one of the pages so that it is no longer a duplicate, incorrect, or a [[Wikipedia:Find or fix a stub|stub]]. For example, someone might suggest that the "Cinema of India" and "History of Indian Cinema" be merged, as they contain mostly duplicate information. In this case "Cinema of India" should contain an overview of the subject, including a short summary of the history, with a link to "History of Indian Cinema" which should contain the detailed history.
{{hatnote|You can help by following instructions at [[WP:Merging#How to merge]].}}
{{see also|Category:Pages currently being merged|Category:Articles to be merged after an Articles for deletion discussion}}
 
When there is consensus to merge, please move the request '''to the bottom''' of this list. If you are currently working on the merge, reply to the request with <code><nowiki>{{doing}}</nowiki></code>. When the merge has been completed, reply to the request with <code><nowiki>{{Merge done}}</nowiki></code> and it will be archived.
After a pair has been merged, '''please remove it from the list below''' (both the source and target pages). If you want to show off your work, use the [[Wikipedia_talk:Duplicate_articles|Talk Page]].

Militarism's primary meaning is about the role of the military in a society, or about how much effort to give in the long term to military capabilities. In most states with a stable polity, both militarists and pacifists are outside the decision-making, and calling them hawks and doves respectively is just careless metaphorizing. --[[User:Jerzy|Jerzy]][[User talk:Jerzy|(t)]] 04:55, 2004 Aug 14 (UTC)

**hmm... Witch-hunt is used as a verb and still goes on. there needs to be some type of differentiation. maybe with-hunt seperate from the other 2 [[User:Williamb|Williamb]] 06:39, 15 Jul 2004 (UTC)
**"Witch hunt" is the more common term. For example, [[Burning Times]] refers exclusively to "witch hunts", not once to "witch trials". Google hits for "witch trial": 11K; for "witch hunt", 271K; for "witchcraft trial", 2K; for "Burning Times", 26K. Uses of the term "witch-hunt" in reference to modern-day activities should be discussed in the article, not moved to a separate article. -[[User:Gtrmp|Sean Curtin]] 00:07, 1 Aug 2004 (UTC)
*[[Wikipedia:Browser notes]] into [[meta:Browser issues with MediaWiki]]. --[[User:Zigger|Zigger]] 12:28, 30 May 2004 (UTC)
** there could be a case to leaving them separated, firstoff, the two projects use difrent character encoding, secondly the wiki one seems to be along the lins of, if you have x browere, then you might have x problems, where as the meta one seems like, there are the known issues with meta. although i think that may just bee a diffrence in style.
