Article exists under Paranormal City and I have tried to redirect to Paranormal City; however, editor has surpassed the WP:3RR rule reverting my and another editor's redirection. The individual appears to be better know under the name Paranormal City; hence the redirection to Paranormal City. Regardless, two articles are not necessary. reddogsix (talk) 02:37, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge in one way or the other, probably to Paranormal City, but either way, we only need one article on this individual.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:25, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge per nom and Johnpacklambert. If the subject's "acting career" section can be cited (it currently isn't), then I'd personally advocate making Mark Kevlin Ryan the target of the redirect. As this title may be better placed to cover "both". Whatever the target of the merge/redirect, as noted, there is absolutely no reason to have two articles covering substantively the same subject. Per WP:MERGEREASON. (Once merged, a separate review of the cites, COI and tonal issues might be appropriate). Guliolopez (talk) 09:40, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge anything mergeable to Paranormal City and redirect the title. As already said above we will have only one article about him, even the existing article has multiple tags. But the newbie editor either want change the name or want to make two separate articles per edit summary. If he however want only name change he can do so later at RM, for two articles that's outright No–Ammarpad (talk) 10:31, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge into Paranormal City per Ammarpad. A quick Google search appears to show that Ryan's middle name is "Kelvin" rather than "Kevlin", so if redirects are created, it may be necessary to do so for both spellings (and probably an entry in the Mark Ryan disambiguation page). ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 14:14, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • FYI - The non-Wikipedia Paranormal City band page page lists the correct spelling as "Mark Kelvin Ryan". reddogsix (talk) 17:11, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
