Merge
"Conjunture" is not a standard term in English-language economics. In many languages, it is a common term ("conjoncture" in French; "coyuntura" in Spanish). But in English the standard term is simply business cycle. This page should be redirected to (or merged into) business cycle. Rinconsoleao (talk) 16:43, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

Conjuncture is not merely economics
This has been been pointed out before, but nothing came of it, it seems.

According to Wiktionary, "conjuncture" has a much wider sense than merely (which, like, is a redirect targetting business cycle). Looking at "what links here", many articles use it in a different sense, e.g Sweden in Union with Norway uses it as elegant variation for "political union" in one place.

While I can go through the What Links Here to change those articles for which this link is incorrect. perhaps a better solution is to replace the redirect with a DAB.

The term "conjuncture" does not appear in the target, so there is little MOS:LINKCLARITY with this redirect. We have als:
 * Conjuncture (2008-2009)
 * Conjuncture (international relations)
 * Institute of Conjuncture

and redirects


 * -> business cycle
 * -> business cycle
 * -> business cycle
 * -> conjuncture (international relations)

 * I've WP:BOLDly edited the articles linking to . Some via political conjuncture, some via economic conjuncture, some directly to conjuncture (international relations), and some I have just unlinked as something of a false friend. Per MOS:SPECIFICLINK, WP:SURPRISE, MOS:LINKQUOTE and so on, not merely on whimsy. 94.21.219.19 (talk) 09:21, 20 December 2018 (UTC)
