[edit] Merger
Where is the consensus to merge this into Methemoglobinemia? It was proposed, but I couldn't find any official vote on it or any positive response to the merger suggestion. There are at least two votes against this. Torc2 01:07, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
I couldn't even find any discussion at all about the merger. Torc2 cites two votes against a merger, but I do not know where these votes are. If someone knows, please say so. And I am for a merge because the Methemoglobinemia article has all of the information that this article has. --Nanobri 01:19, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
- The only discussion I could find is on the Methemoglobinemia talk page. Torc2 01:26, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
- Also, the link on Fugate genealogical history would not be appropriate for the Methemoglobinemia. This article might be a stub and have room to add information, but it's not synonymous with the disease. Torc2 01:30, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Merged page
Kville105125 03:19, 14 October 2007 (UTC) I finished the merger.
[edit] Merger proposal
Against - OK, since there's no record of the previous merge proposal being voted upon or approved, let's just start over from scratch. I'm adding this to the proposed merge list, with my comments that I'm personally against the merger, but I want to give it a fair chance so we don't just keep edit warring. Torc2 04:31, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
For - The Blue Fugates article is entirely redundant with respect to the info the Methemoglobinemia article, and has not been added to for over a year. --Nanobri 17:50, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
Against - Most amateur genealogists and geneticists know of the Blue Fugates as referrant, even if they are not sure how to spell Methemoglobinemia. Besides, there are thousands and thousands of Fugates who might Wiki their names, and no one I know named Methemoglobinemia. Keep It Simple. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.86.82.90 (talk) 02:26, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
For - Currently the entire content of the Blue Fugates article belongs in the methemoglobinemia article. Unless someone wants to expand it substantially, which doesn't appear to be the case, it should be merged. Blue Fugates would be an appropriate redirect to methemoglobinemia, and this would fully address the above concern. Jadine (talk) 01:04, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
For I would also like to have "Argyria" referred to here in case someone looks up that term by checking for blue people. Thanks. Mimi —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.250.69.78 (talk) 20:13, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
Against I might be able to expand it a little bit. I have a good sized article on the Blue Fugates and what/who they were. I would really like to add it in. MrSpectacles (talk) 04:39, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
- Time to wrap this merger up or move on. We are clearing old backlogs of merger tags. I suggest that we have a vote too close to call, so it might be good to advertise the proposal or persuade the opponents. Cheers! --Kevin Murray (talk) 01:22, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
