Talk:Matchbox

Article expansion
It has been proposed that this article should be merged into "Match", due to being very short, and unclear how it could really be fleshed out to a full sized article. However, these are two different and related objects. Moreover, matchboxes have become collectibles, hence notable enough to deserve a separate article. To any interested editors (including those with this hobby): please identify secondary verifiable sources to expand this article, and contribute to it. Thanks,DPdH (talk) 23:39, 19 May 2018 (UTC)

Wrong merge: Metallic or wall matchboxes are not goals of Phillumeny
The collection of matchboxes by the " Phillumeny" is made with the thousands of cardboard or wooden matchboxes spread around the world. Now, the expanded article comprehends metallic and wall-mounted matchboxes wich are not within the objective of those collectors, then being the article more general, it would be improper to merge it with Phillumeny..Mcapdevila (talk) 22:59, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
