Duplicate articles
There appears to be two Gates Millennium Scholar articles: Gates Millennium Scholars and Gates Millennium Scholars Program. Unless I'm mistaken, there's only one scholarship program, which is the one and only Gates Millennium Scholarship. GabeIglesia (talk) 10:45, 15 November 2015 (UTC)

Working on merging and adding more sources, references, citations, and hyperlinks.

Working on merging.
In the process of cleaning up this article to merge it with Gates Millennium Scholars Program. I wouldn't know how to delete the page after merging, though. Jxyao (talk) 06:57, 30 November 2016 (UTC)

Tried to Merge- not sure if I have power to do so
I tried to merge the Gates Millennium Scholars page with the Gates Millennium Scholars Program page but the only feature I've been able to use is 'move' under the 'more' tab, however, it seems that feature is used to rename articles and redirect the old name/page to the new name/page. However, since both pages already exist, this option isn't working for merging.

 * thanks for all your work on this. I've done some more merge work from here to Gates Millennium Scholars Program, which is what the program is called on its website, and think this article can now be redirected there. Would you agree? Wikishovel (talk) 11:18, 12 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Completed merge - hopefully without too much duplication. Klbrain (talk) 16:15, 8 December 2017 (UTC)
