Aceolus and Acius

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This stub seems redundant with Acheolus and Acius. Not sure why this combo stub is necessary. Gjs238 (talk) 23:58, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
 * The stub was a redirect to Acius, but after the Acheolus article was started an article pointing to the two seemed to make more sense than a redirect pointing to one or the other. The sources usually treat the two saints as a pair. Possibly Acheolus and Acius should be merged into this one. There are a surprising number of articles on pairs or groups of saints that were martyred together, where little or nothing else is known of them individually.

 * Keep and Merge the two individual articles into this one - There aren't a whole lot of sources on them, but those that are already in these articles, and that I've found with searches, all seem to discuss them exclusively as a pair. On top of that, the two current separate articles are nearly identical in content, as they are both being based off of the same sources that discuss them together.  It would make more sense, in this case, to make this the primary article and have the two individual articles redirect here instead.  Rorshacma (talk) 00:03, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep and merge per Rorshacma. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:07, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
 * I can do the merge after a close as keep: basically just copy over Acheolus and tweak the lead to refer to both saints. They both have the same date of death etc.. Aymatth2 (talk) 13:37, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
