Merge with Tacheometry
The two articles Tacheometry and tachymeter contain duplicate information and should probably be merged. --Michael Daly (talk) 23:34, 16 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Agree - Leonard G. (talk) 18:10, 6 September 2009 (UTC)


 * You agree but the merge tag you added identifies an entirely different pair of articles to be merged. Tacheometry and tachymeter contain duplicate information.  Tachymeter and tachymetry scale also contain duplicate information.  Which pair should be merged, or should all three? --Michael Daly (talk) 03:23, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Merge Tachymeter scale
A previous suggestion to merge with Tacheometry seems to have failed for lack of interest. Information in Tachymeter scale seems to be duplicated here, maybe that article could be merged into the Watches section? At least for a start.... -- David Spalding ( ☎   ✉   ✍  ) 00:47, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Agree-- PremKudva    Talk   11:25, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Disagree-- Two halves of article are completely unrelated. Split article into Tachymeter(Surveying) and Tachymeter(Watches).  Create disambiguation page. Twredfish (talk) 20:31, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Something must be done-- Both views are valid. As it stands now, there is duplicated information, which is not good. I will go ahead with the split, which makes interwiki links more logical. -- Egil (talk) 07:41, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

French page
Just so you know, I don't know how wikipedia links different language articles together but the French link points to "Compte-tours" witch is tachometer and not tachymeter. Once on the french page "Compte-tours" the english links points rightly to tachometer. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 145.242.11.3 (talk) 13:24, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I changed the link to Tachéomètre. Is this the right one? — Mr. Stradivarius  ( drop me a line ) 15:12, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

Tachéomètre is the right french word for tachymeter IMO but that page on wikipedia is not about the one on watches but only about the Total station used to calculates angles/distances. But it's better than the previous page as it's the same topic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 145.242.11.3 (talk) 16:01, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
