This template should be included on pages which don't deserve separate articles, and notes to editors that information needs to be moved to other articles. It can be included by adding the text {{merge}} to the top of the article. This will add the green notice to the top of the article.

Parameters

{{{1}}} - this is an optional parameter that allows you to suggest which page the information should be merged into. It accepts wiki links.

Examples

Let's say that we felt this template page was unnecessary and should the information should be moved elsewhere. By adding {{merge}} to the article, we would produce the following notice:


It has been suggested that this page be merged.
The information on this page is much better suited to be included on other pages.


If we felt, for example, that the information on this page would be better suited on the page Brandon Sanderson, we could use the following code: {{merge|[[Brandon Sanderson]]}} to produce the following notice:


It has been suggested that this page be merged into Brandon Sanderson.
The information on this page is much better suited to be included on other pages.


Pages to be Merged

This is a list of pages with this template included. Pages marked "transclusion" have the template included and are candidates for merging, whereas pages not marked simply link directly to the template page.
