[edit] Proposed merge with Edithburgh, South Australia

What is the basis of the merge proposal? I note that there are 16 stubs in Category:Wind farms in Australia. I have no idea if it's practical to expand a wind farm article to a full-length article or if it will always be a stub, but my first impression is that Edithburgh, South Australia does not really belong in the wind farms category, therefore to oppose the merge. I took the photos that are presently on both articles, but I'm happy to have different subjects on the Edithburgh article - they reflect what I take photos of, more than they reflect what Edithburgh is about. --Scott Davis Talk 21:56, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Oppose - the wind farm may be located near the town, but the two are separate entities and each deserves an article. If anything, perhaps remove the wind farm images from the town's article and provide some images of the town. (Scott, are you able to do that or were you passing through?)

I spent a weekend there. I sorted through my photos later to see what I could add to Wikipedia, rather than targetting particular articles or images. I created the Edithburgh article to host the photos, before there was a push to create all the power station articles. I'll drop the bigger photo off the Edithburgh page pending someone finding/taking better Edithburgh pictures. The view of the windfarm from the town jetty would be better than the paddock view, plus one of some significant town buildings/streetscape. They're not the type of holiday snaps I take other than deliberately for Wikipedia. --Scott Davis Talk 02:57, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
I too oppose the merge for the reasons discussed above. Johnfos 06:38, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
