Formal request has been received to merge: Museum shop into Gift shop; dated: February 2023. Proposer's Rationale: A museum shop is just a type of gift shop, and not independently notable. It ahould be fine as a section of gift shop. Sir Magnus has spoken! (So can you!). Discuss here. GenQuest ^"scribble" 23:43, 4 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A belated oppose. First, a brief skim of the sources reveal that museum shops very much meet criteria for a standlone article. Second, Gift shop has no sources, while Museum shop is well-sourced for a stub (asssuming good-faith on the offline sources). Merging the two without resulting in undue weight on museum stores will be tricky. Rotideypoc41352 (talk · contribs) 20:25, 4 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose A gift shop and a museum shop are quite different. --Macrakis (talk) 23:53, 4 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Adding on to Macrakis, the phenomenon of museums beginning to include shops as supplements to their revenue and the criticism to those practices are definitely independently notable. :3 F4U (they/it) 13:47, 16 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
