Template talk:Merge to

Is this (and the other proposal templates) necessary still? I never seem them ever being used. Andymii (talk) 14:48, 30 March 2015 (EDT)

It was more necessary back before TPPs ensured split/merge discussions were linked to a central place (otherwise, they could fall through the cracks easily). I didn't delete them when I did the big template redesign sweep last month since they could still potentially be useful if people remember/care enough to use them, especially if larger pages with more traffic are concerned since not everyone checks MW:Proposals but might care what happens to pages like Koopa Troopa, etc. It could also prevent edit wars on contentious issues, although I don't remember having such an "emergency" TPP in quite a while... - Walkazo 16:07, 30 March 2015 (EDT)
