[edit] Merge with Greater Johannesburg Metropolitan Area

There seems to be a lot of overlap between the two articles. Either some way of differentiating them needs to be found or they should be merged. It seems that they both refer to the same area, but I could be mistaken. 168.209.98.35 14:07, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

No. I'd say this article should be redone to focus more on the physical geography, geology and important mining aspects while the urban and social geography stuff should go in the Johannesburg article. Just my take, as Witwatersrand means gold and geology to me :-) Vsmith 14:24, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

I don't think they should be merged either. The Witwatersrand is a geological term, nothing to do with cities, or metros. Joziboy 3 April 2006, 19:48 (UTC)

Do we not like the idea of providing sources? I'm ok with it being fairly short as it's only a geological term, but back up your assertions, people!
