Merge articles?

[edit]

Given the announced name change of the new merger district Burgenland to Burgenlandkreis, we could also treat this as the incorporation of the district of Weißenfels into the (old) Burgenlandkreis. I don't think the old district Burgenlandkreis needs a separate article then, since the name didn't change (in the end). Markussep Talk 07:49, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

For the moment I am against a Merger, as the article is also separate in de-wiki which is the base source for us now. Technically all the districts effected by this reform are new districts even if they kept the same name, but BLK is a bit special as it was named differently for a little while. If anything revisit the idea of a merger once everything has settled down across several wikis maybe in a month time or so. Agathoclea 07:51, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The temporary name change complicates matters, but in the end it's more like the situation at Wittenberg (district), that was expanded with part of Anhalt-Zerbst, but didn't get a new article (although they are different legal bodies, see de:Landkreis Wittenberg#Verwaltungsgeschichte). Maybe the articles will merge in de: in the end, there's no rush anyway. Markussep Talk 08:19, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
