| ::Don't know of it being any relevant discussion, but it's certainly a bad precedent. We have who knows how many articles whose titles are the names of laws.

| Thanks for the good job on the merge-redirect. I think it's important that "May-December romance" remain as a a redirect; while the new article is more solid, it is also less searchable. I've done a Google search for relevant famous May-December couples, and have not come up with very much outside of Hollywood, yet I know the Upper Class (whatever that may be) are also very much into marriages of convenience or arranged marriages, as are a number of other cultures. Seems no one on the net is talking about it though. ]] 23:05, 2004 Aug 14 (UTC) | |||

| ==Merge and redirect instead of VfD listings== | |||
| Hi, Benc, thanks for your patience with my oldermenyoungerwomenolderwomenyoungermen confusion on VfD. (My defense would be that confusion was kind of appropriate.) I was very interested by the comment you made: | |||
| ''In fact, I don't think ''any'' of the three pages should've been listed on VfD... the nominator should've merged them and listed it for cleanup.'' | |||
| You can do that ...? I've never thought of being bold in just that way, but it would certainly save a lot of time for everybody. You're saying that if I see a clutch of substubs that belong together, I should just change them all to redirects, merge the text in a new article, and send it to Cleanup, (or clean it myself), without first consulting anybody? Wouldn't that outrage a lot of people, who want each information atom to have its own entry? There seem to be a lot of them around. Or am I supposed to start a whole thing on each of the stubs' talk pages first? That would make the procedure even more timewasting than VfD, I think. Not sure I understood your meaning, but I'm intrigued. ] 10:13, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC) | |||
| :Yes, you certainly can do that — as they say, ]! A lot of time is unfortunately wasted on ''talking'' about changing articles, and VfD is often a hot spot for wasting time, unfortunately. A lot of Wikipedians don't realize that a significant number of articles on VfD don't ''need'' to be on there, if someone would only step in and fix them! It took me a little while to realize this, myself, and only after asking explicitly. Check out ]. Anyway, thank you for your concerns, and good luck rescuing articles from VfD — Misplaced Pages needs more editors like you who are willing to whip those stubs up into something useful. :-) ]] 10:23, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC) | |||
