Article is pretty much a lower-quality version of List of theatres in the Melbourne City Centre Boneymau (talk) 03:09, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Withdrawn by nominator Okay, I didn't think of merge as an option, but that seems to be the consensus so I'll progress that. Boneymau (talk) 05:28, 15 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Why is this at AFD? Without reviewing the two articles mentioned, I gather that the two should be merged. Or both should be improved. Which editors can do. If the deletion nominator doesn't want to do the heavy lifting, they could simply open a discussion section calling for merger and set up merger proposal tags. --do ncr am 02:01, 13 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Upmerge to List of theatres in the Melbourne City Centre. Just do it, almost a completely redundant article. Just boldly upmerge and redirect. Aoziwe (talk) 11:27, 13 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge. Again, this AFD is not needed. --do ncr am 15:59, 13 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge - I understand that in practice, AfD is often easier than getting a consensus through RfC, but in a case like this, just mention you think the duplicate pages should be combined in the talk page, wait a day or so to see if there is any objection, and if not, go ahead and do the merge.
