[edit] Merge proposal

I'm proposing the stub History of Japanese nationality be merged into Japanese nationality law.

I know NOTHING about the topic, but found History of Japanese nationality being constantly vandalised (for some unknown reason). I'll give it a week, and then I'll stick the single paragraph somewhere if no one else either objects or does it themselves. T L Miles 22:05, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Japanese nationality law deals with modern-day legal questions. The distinction between historical and current law pages is clear if you look at History of British nationality law and History of Canadian nationality law and consider how they differ from British nationality law and Canadian nationality law.

[edit] response to merge proposal

I am working on this page as an assignment for a class. I have modified it considerably since you suggested that it be merged, I hope it is now clear that its content is distinct from other pages on related topics. I will be improving it and adding content and references in the next few weeks. Sorry about the vandalism. My roommate... Rebalex 15:43, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Brilliant, Rebalex! I'm going to recind my argument for a Merge and remove the tags. Clearly the other article is on current law, and this history goes back to Medieval Japan. T L Miles 13:53, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
