Template talk:Merged-to

Move to "Merged to"
Following the new fashion and to be in line with Split to I suggest that this template is moved to Merged to. -- Magioladitis (talk) 08:28, 22 December 2013 (UTC)

Please add  on a new line directly after the opening. This adds the  class for use with bots and scripts. Chlod (say hi!) 12:08, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

Alternate wording needed
This template says "the content was merged into FOO and now redirects there". This is not accurate if the redirect is later turned into another article or even redirected somewhere else. Should there be a parameter to change the wording to drop the "now redirect there" part when not applicable. Or maybe just drop it entirely for simplicity. MB 03:21, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
 * If the page is updated as you describe, I suggest replacing this template with the more general Copied. Per the lead of WP:Merging, both copying and redirecting are parts of the merge. Flatscan (talk) 04:24, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
 * @Nihiltres, can you automate this? This template is used on article Talk Pages after a merger. Can you check if the article still redirects there and adjust the wording accordingly. The present wording is probably correct in the vast majority of the 16,000 transclusions. But I found one where the article was changed from a redirect to a dab page, and another where it was still a redirect but to a different target than at the time of the merge. As time goes on, "and now redirects there" will be wrong more often. MB 21:45, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Sure, it should be fairly simple combination of Module:Redirect and a conditional. What should the wording change to if the article no longer redirects to the specified target? Just remove the "and it now redirects there"? {&#123; Nihiltres &#8202;&#124;talk&#8202;&#124;edits}&#125; 22:09, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
 * @Nihiltres, yes just drop it. The rest is still accurate. What happens if the target is different because of a move? In that case, the bot would have updated the target to avoid a double redirect but the redirect still goes to the place with the merged content. MB 22:33, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
