Merge with Ponce de Leon amusement park
editI have recently requested that information from the page Ponce de Leon amusement park be merged into the page Ponce de Leon Springs (Atlanta). I have recently significantly expanded the article for Ponce de Leon Springs (Atlanta) and in doing so believe that all of the relevant information on Ponce de Leon amusement park can be captured in a subsection of the other article, making the amusement park article redundant. As it stands now, that article is a stub, and having done some digging into references for that article, I believe it would be best to merge. -JJonahJackalope (talk) 21:31, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, merge with redirect, · · · Peter Southwood (talk): 01:18, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
