To not merge, given that there are sufficient reliable sources for independent notability of Chris Rivers. Klbrain (talk) 09:26, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

I think Chris Rivers should be merged to this article. Despite being a well-written article, he doesn't really seem to be notable outside of his father; sure, he makes music, but none of his albums or singles have ever charted. Erpert ^{blah, blah, blah...} 13:30, 19 October 2018 (UTC)

It might make more sense to have this discussion on that page? But I oppose the merge. His article is a step above a stub and there's nothing wrong with that, but if he's notable enough at all he's notable enough to have his own page. If you think the content is only enough to be merged to the page of his father, then I'd argue that the article should just be deleted, because it has nothing to do with Pun. He's been dead almost 20 years, so we don't need to update this page with exploits and record releases of his son for who knows how long. JesseRafe (talk) 13:55, 19 October 2018 (UTC)

I actually don't disagree with your notion about this discussion being on Rivers' article's talk page, but for whatever reason the {{mergeto}} template is linked to the talk page of the article it was placed on. Erpert ^{blah, blah, blah...} 15:12, 19 October 2018 (UTC)

• • Oppose merge as he has enough coverage in reliable sources to be independently notable and merging here would be out of place in my view, thanks Atlantic306 (talk) 15:30, 19 October 2018 (UTC)

Merge? (2)

I do not think this edit summary from Klbrain qualifies because consensus can change, especially after six years. I feel that Rivers does not need his own article because although he appears to also be a rapper, the sources are more about his father than about him; in addition, none of his material has ever charted.
