Talk:List of Rahula College alumni

Merge discussion for Rahula College
An article that you have been involved in editing, Rahula College, has been proposed for a merge with another article. If you are interested in the merge discussion, please participate by going, and adding your comments on the discussion page. Thank you. Cossde (talk) 13:33, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

List will be populated soon (Wo2gana (talk) 00:36, 10 May 2013 (UTC)).


 * Populated with how many items? Will all alumni be from Rahula College? As the sole contributor, why not avoid the merge and just paste all the content into Rahula College and populate that. That article is small and can accomodate the list. Visitors shouldn't need to go to another article just to find the list. Please consider adding it there and replacing this article with a redirect. Merging is a waste of work for us. What do you think? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:48, 10 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Your opinion is appreciated. # - Populated with how many items? - how can I tell you right now. What is the minimum to create a List (more work now for you) ? # - Will all alumni be from Rahula College? - no from Outer Space College in Mars (more work for you). Hmm...hmm Cheers, (Wo2gana (talk) 02:13, 10 May 2013 (UTC)).


 * Sorry. I said "Will all alumni be from Rahula College?" because I saw the lede "Rahula College Matara" and thought there might be other Rahula Colleges somewhere that would be included.


 * Can you guess how many items? If more than, say 100, I would think this list is worth a standalone article. What's your guess? Actually, please just paste the content into the main article and expand it there. You can always break it away later, with ease.


 * The thing is that a merge discussion is under way and you can save us all a lot of trouble by just moving it yourself right now. The chance of the merge discussion ending up with this being a standalone list is slim. Why not take the path of least resistance, and what serves visitor best?

(1) Sorry. I said "Will all alumni be from Rahula College?" because I saw the lede "Rahula College Matara" and thought there might be other Rahula Colleges somewhere that would be included.

''You thought (master of your thoughts is you) myself is deficient in sense, judgment or understanding to include other Rahula College alumni in to List of Rahula College alumni - Rahula College Matara ? There may be many other Rahula Colleges in Sri Lanka like for example Rahula College Katugastota.

Common intelligence is that any series of items, names, words et cetera presented one after the other is a list.

(3) Path of least resistance

''What's your guess? Is this list less trouble for you ?''

 * You are too easy and impartial. Thanks for taking time to educate a member of the editing community just like you (Wo2gana (talk) 22:42, 12 May 2013 (UTC)).


 * Support merge to main article until list is large enough to break away. The main article is easily large enough to accomodate the section. This will best serve visitors. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:16, 12 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Articles merged. Cossde (talk) 13:14, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
