Merge Jesus healing the blind
editWhat do you think of merging all the "healing the blind" articles into one article?
They are Blind man of Bethsaida · Blind at birth · Blind near Jericho · Blind men in Galilee. şṗøʀĸşṗøʀĸ: τᴀʟĸ 20:55, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
- Oh no, oh no. Will be an absolute nightmare and lightning may strike both of us blind. They should refer to each other, but as is, each one refers to a specific passage, and each miracle has a "separate clean page". This will create a confusing soup. We can, however, give a summary of all the blind ones as a paragraph in each article. Again, there are so many other articles that need help that this will be a distraction. I just found out about two nice new articles, Suetonius on Christ and Mara Bar-Serapion and they are not linked to from elsewhere, and need a few more refs, so that kind of work needs to come first, I think.

Requested move 04 June 2014
edit- The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: Moved to Healing the man blind from birth. Hopefully this makes the miracle easier to recognize and its title easier to interpret. (non-admin closure) Red Slash 08:26, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
Healing the blind at birth → Healing the blind from birth – Alternately, could be Healing the man blind from birth. The current title makes it sound as if Jesus healed a blind newborn, and "from" is more common. See the biblical quote in the article, for example. – 149.160.173.187 (talk) 18:55, 4 June 2014 (UTC) This is a contested technical request (permalink). Steel1943 (talk) 18:59, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
- Comment. This was requested as a technical move, but since multiple options have been presented, I have moved it to a full discussion. Steel1943 (talk) 18:59, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
- Healing the man blind from birth is clunky, but it's the best of the three presented here so far. With a title like this, I would expect to find a medical procedure for curing infants born blind. Since the current title isn't too common anyway (see "healing the blind at birth" -wikipedia), I would like to see incoming links updated and the current title deleted as a redirect after the move. --BDD (talk) 01:08, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
- Support Option 2 Healing the man blind from birth per print sources - as BDD says "Healing the man blind from birth is clunky, but it's the best of the three presented here so far. With a title like this, I would expect to find a medical procedure for curing infants born blind." in fact was so unrecognizable that ignored this RM till it hit backlog.
