Template:Merge
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Merge can be used when there is valid information on a page that otherwise should be deleted. The editor who places this template on a page can suggest
another page where some or all the information can be placed.
Usage
To use, copy or type the following at the top of the page that needs to be merged (removing the reasons and adding your own):
{{merge|article to merge into|reason for merger}}
Do not put the article you propose to merge in brackets; the template will automatically link to it.
Remember to put a reason for the merger, failure to do so may result in tag being removed.
Sample output
The template below has been deliberately filled in incorrectly
 | This page should be merged, then deleted.
The editor who placed this tag failed to give a rationale by using the format {{merge|article to merge into|merge rationale}}. Check the talk page for a rationale. If one is not there, you may immediately remove this tag.
