Proposed merge of Personally Controlled Electronic Health Record into My Health Record
editIt appears that "Personally Controlled Electronic Health Record" was the old name and former structure of My Health Record before it was remade and re-released in 2016: https://www.digitalhealth.gov.au/news-and-events/news/pcehr-is-changing-its-name-to-my-health-record ItsPugle (please ping on reply) 08:06, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
- ItsPugle, No, this information should be added to the existing article, then that article should be moved to this title (an admin will have to do that since this redirect blocks the move). This is to save the attribution. Onel5969 TT me 12:08, 29 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Onel5969: Please do not redirect articles with significant content without consensus. This article was created as a result of a discussion of splitting content out from Health care in Australia. What's the point of merging content from this article into Personally Controlled Electronic Health Record when you're just going to have to bother an admin to delete this page then move PCEHR to this namespace, when you could just merge PCEHR into this article? A lot of the content on the PCEHR article is extraordinarily technical for the everyday reader and needs rewriting, not to mention that it's out of date by about, oh, 7 years. Opposing a merge for the sole fact of saving attribution is hardly reasonable either; we have templates (such as {{Split article}}, which is already used on this page for content split out of Health care in Australia, and {{Copied}}) that adequately and appropriately provides attribution details for article content. Similarly, a merge does not mean that we delete the old article - it just means that we redirect the old article, which still keeps all version record (i.e. attribution data) intact. Also, and again with all due respect for your efforts to build a better encyclopedia, taking ownership of articles like you've done here by removing the discussion tags because you object isn't helpful.

- Support merge. The successory to PCEHR is MHR, so it makes sense to cover them in one article. There is a longstanding precedent on this website that the technical means to do something shouldn't prevent it being done if it's the right thing to do for an article. Like other mergers, attribution can be provided in the history of the redirected article, or even using a history merge. This certainly shouldn't be the reason a merge isn't performed - otherwise no mergers could possibly performed at all.--Tom (LT) (talk) 21:27, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
