(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This list is a repeat of the lists under Rugby union at the 2009 Maccabiah Games#Teams. It was tagged to be merged, but I can't see how merging this in there can work, or if it is needed with it's current set up.

Merge into Rugby union at the 2009 Maccabiah Games then Delete. It can be merged following the format laid out in 2011 Varsity Cup with collapsible boxes (not templates). --Bob247 (talk) 17:35, 11 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. The same should probably be done with these articles (Australia Maccabiah rugby union team, United Kingdom Maccabiah rugby union team, United States Maccabiah rugby union team, South Africa Maccabiah rugby union team, Canada Maccabiah rugby union team and Chile Maccabiah rugby union team) as they contain the same lists. Is there a way to add them to this discussion without opening new ones for each one? AIRcorn (talk) 07:54, 12 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure what you mean by this - "The same should probably be done with these articles" - are you saying that the articles should be merged into other articles, or that they should have collapsible lists? --MacRusgail (talk) 13:52, 12 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In my original deletion statement one of the reasons I considered deleting the Rugby union at the 2009 Maccabiah Games – team squads article instead of merging was because the team lists were already included by linking to **** Maccabiah rugby union team. If the team list's are going to be merged as collapsable boxes into the parent article it seems pointless to link to the lists somewhere else as well. So if the decision is to merge the team list as a collapsible box then in my opinion these articles would be then become redundant and should probably be deleted. Sorry for not explaining this clearer in the first place. AIRcorn (talk) 15:02, 12 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The individual nation pages should probably be nominated for deletion as well. --Bob247 (talk) 05:09, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Point of order Bob247: you cannot merge and delete. Is there an objection to a redirect? It wouldn't be particularly useful, but it would preserve the edit history. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 01:16, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
