[edit] Merger

The section regarding Jadon as a Hindu clan name is a word-for-word duplicate of the article Jadaun. Either Jadaun should be changed into a redirect to Jadon, or the information about the Hindu clan name in Jadon should be changed into a link to Jadaun. And the clan name section really needs some references. It's basically totally unsourced right now. PubliusFL 14:02, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

I have asked njadaun (talk · contribs) (who added the Hindu text) about this on his talk page, but he continues to treat those two articles as two distinct articles. I think that the article Jadon should only have the text about the Hebrew meaning, plus a pointer to Jadaun. This makes it easier to maintain the two articles; also, according to njadaun's edit, "Jadaun" seems to be slightly preferable to "Jadon" as the article name for the Hindu concept. --Austrian 17:12, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

That makes sense to me. I would agree with that course of action. PubliusFL 18:02, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
