My views are:
Ontologically speaking, Visions of Jesus and Mary is a super-category of visions that just include the Virgin Mary, usually called Marian apparitions. Hence pure logic suggest athat Marian Apparitions should be a sub-category of Visions of Jesus and Mary.
Culturally (and theologically) speaking, the above logic does not seem to fit. Marian apparitions seem to need a category of their own.
My preferences would be:
Merging the two will be the least favorite option.
If consolidation is really desired, Marian apparitions should be a sub-category of Visions of Jesus and Mary
The best option is to leave them as they are, under the umbrella category Apparitions.
