The result was Speedy keep. While a merge can be an outcome of an AfD, deletion is the primary use. AfD should not be used to discuss an article where deletion is not a possibility. A talk page discussion with a link on WP:PM will suffice. Mr.Z-man  talk ¢ 20:43, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Comment. According to WP:AFD: Articles for deletion (AfD) is where Wikipedians discuss whether an article should be deleted. Articles listed here are debated for up to five days, after which the deletion process proceeds based on Wikipedia community consensus. The page is then either kept, merged and/or redirected, transwikied (copied to another Wikimedia project, such as Wikibooks, Wikisource, Wikiquote, Wiktionary, or another language's Wikipedia, and then redirected or deleted—please note that it cannot be transwikied to Wikitravel or Wikinews), renamed/moved to another title, userfied to the creator's user page or user subpage, or deleted per the deletion policy. Therefore, a merge is a valid result of this nomination. Moreover, according to WP:MM: There are several good reasons to merge a page: Duplicate - There are two or more pages on exactly the same subject and having the same scope. Therefore, duplicate information is a valid reason for a merge. Themodernizer 20:38, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
