Talk:New Covid

Merge discussion
This article appears to be a duplicate of the article VUI – 202012/01 on the new strain of the virus. Llewee (talk) 20:08, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * My bad! I didn't realise we already had one. Kilopylae (talk) 20:08, 21 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Support merge - as per above --John B123 (talk) 20:37, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Support redirect of New Covid (which has much less in it and a dubious title), to VUI-202012/01 (much more comprehensive). 109.255.90.188 (talk) 20:50, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Support merge, also as per above.  —Biscuit-in-Chief :-)  (/tɔːk/ – /ˈkɒntɹɪbs/) 21:06, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * The current topic seems to be the same though "New Covid" could be a term for any of several mutations such as Cluster 5.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 22:05, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment I see it is more actually like a redirects for discussion rather than discussion for merge the article. If you want to redirect it, please discuss at WP:RfD. I rather support it become a disambiguation page instead as there are too many mutations that regard as "New Covid" such as Cluster 5. 36.68.186.36 (talk) 22:48, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Support merge - make this one a disambiguation page until we get List of SARS-CoV-2 strains. --mfb (talk) 04:50, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Support redirect of New Covid, a name that will become redundant when a newer strain emerges. 81.154.122.28 (talk) 07:30, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Support merge into List of SARS-CoV-2 strains. JackFromReedsburg (talk &#124; contribs) 13:44, 22 December 2020 (UTC)


 * I merged one sentence about the spread in London. I didn’t merge content about Twitter trends or the name "New Covid" as they're not reliably sourced. Otherwise, the content is redundant. If people want to turn "New Covid" into a disambiguation page or find another target, go ahead. Fences  &amp;  Windows  16:24, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
