Talk:Wedge (golf)

Merge
I strongly disagree with this merge. Please discuss such things before doing them. I think there is enough independent information on the different types of wedges for them to each have there own article. If you are going to merge, at least do it right. I spent a lot of work on the lob wedge article and you moved it in here with the rest of this crap. Chris lk02  Chris Kreider 16:51, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
 * The more I think about this, the more I strongly disagree. We should have a cover article on golf wedges with exceprts from each individual article. (using the from main article template). I am at least moving lob wedge back to where it was.   Chris  lk02  Chris Kreider 16:53, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

SW origins
There were no jets in 1931, according to a quick google Sarazen was being given a flying lesson by Hughes. According to the wikipedia article on jet engines, the (modern type of) jet engine was just being developed and patented by whittle and some german person during 1928-32. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.145.210.178 (talk) 23:28, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Merge information from multiple pages
This page, iron (golf) and golf club, as well as all of the individual wedge pages, have at least redundant and sometimes contradictory information. If we want a page separate from iron (golf) for wedges, then that page should probably contain, at most, a couple of paragraphs on the subject along with the main article redirect. This page should probably contain only a couple short paragraphs per wedge along with the overall "history" section.Liko81 (talk) 17:39, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I have edited the page to reduce the amount of information given multiple times, and have also reduced title nesting. The History section, while closely tied with the history of the sand wedge in particular, does offer more history than I would want to put in the Sand Wedge summary and so I've left it, but removed history specific to only the gap and lob wedges and generalized the introduction of other wedges.
