[edit] Amqa and Amka need to be merged

Any objections? Tiamut 00:09, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Two choices:

The Amka article is really just a slightly larger version of the Amqa article, so a merger could be a good idea. However, it is an independent Israeli locality today and merging it could be negatively received by other users especially by WikiProject Israel. In the case of the latter choice, we can recommend that the project expand the Amka article and until then we can expand the Amqa one. --Al Ameer son 01:18, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

I have no problem with putting off a merger if people are committed to expanding the respective articles. Happy editing! Tiamut 01:25, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

I for one, know I will I get to expanding the article ASAP. Cheers! --Al Ameer son 01:27, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Firstly; a lot of the articles about "depopulated" villages were started by user:BL (who has not been active since 2004). A lot of the information that he added has mysteriously disappeared, for Amka: see http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Amka&oldid=6456914 and compare that with todays version. SO: always check the history of these articles.. As to whether to merge the two articles or not: I tilt towards merging. Regards, Huldra (talk) 08:22, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
