Merge proposal
editThere is a merge proposal from Flatspace, arising following a deletion proposal, that sounds very reasonable. Merging software to its author. Klbrain (talk) 08:42, 19 December 2022 (UTC)
- I elected to boldly redirect it, since no one has opposed it. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 18:01, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
- I have undone the redirect for the time being, as that is not a merge as suggested. Cukie Gherkin has raised the point, that a merge "would wind up showing undue emphasis on Flatspace, since no other work is discussed beyond crediting him for the work!" I don't really have a perfect solution for that. Most importantly though, the video game is currently not even listed here, only the music for it! So at the very least the basics stats of the game under newly created headline "Video games" on par with Sheeky's other works should be done. I personally think that we should also include the one-sentence review summary, both to WP:PRESERVE what's relevant from the article-to-merge, and because the current article here is very bare bones. None of the works has a blue link. Have these just not been included, or is none of them notable? If the former, that ideally should be remedied. If the latter, if there exist any secondary sources doing reviews, they should also be included. So I perceive an inclusion of the condensed review not as an undue focus on Flatspace, but rather the currently mentioned works as unduely underdeveloped. Daranios (talk) 20:05, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
- I gone ahead and done a merge what I had envisioned. Daranios (talk) 20:15, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
