[edit] Merge

Agree with merging all. Rlevse 15:00, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

  • Disagree, if we keep the actual articles about the knots short and sweet, it would be much better organizationally. --Captain538 01:46, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Short and sweet == target for merge and deletionists. Not to mention the article is not fully developed. Rlevse 16:15, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Agree on merging. One article would be easier to develop encylopedicly, right now it isn't. The more indepth articles are, the better. Radagast83 02:42, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Agree on merging some. The Square lashing and Diagonal lashing articles are comparatively far along and efforts might be better spent improving them rather than merging. However those other three are definitely not up to any reasonble standard... Eventually, though, most of these lashings should have seperate articles as they are quite distinct in form and usage. --Dfred 05:02, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Agree, if we merge them they will be easyer to find, and shouldent be difficult to navigate if a table of contents is added Chuck61007 03:13, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Don't Merge

My first thought was, of course, merge them, but after viewing each of the articles about the distinct types of lashing knots I no longer think so.

It would be best to keep the specific lashing knots pages distinct from the main Lashing knot page with links there to each and all of them.

The articles are shaping up well for young entries (and will no doubt improve) and the inclusion of photographs for each distinct lashing knot is extremely useful. Athaenara 23:14, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

As long as the articles keep improving, I would vote no to the merger. Dddstone 19:55, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
