This article duplicates the more thorough content at Melbourne General Post Office. The name Melbourne General Post Office seems to be in more general use. I have merged all relevant content from this article to Melbourne General Post Office. Callanecc (talk) 13:42, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Now that you've done the merging, be bold and just redirect this as a plausable search-term.  Lugnuts  (talk) 13:52, 28 April 2012 (UTC)


 * REDIRECT - I've taken the time to be WP:BOLD and have created the redirect - if it is to satisfaction, can someone close the AFD please? Pmedema (talk) 19:50, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Question. I thought there was a guideline about merging recently created articles into the older ones, whereas this merge occurred the other way 'round. Is that correct? StAnselm (talk) 20:42, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Nah, as long as you comply with WP:CWW it doesn't matter whether the newer or older article ends up with the content. Generally, newer articles are merged into older ones, but that's just because they are normally smaller and it's easier to merge a small article into a big one. Here the opposite happened and that's fine. Jenks24 (talk) 21:04, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
