Are the Time Agency wrist strap and Vortex manipulator the same thing? I think they are, as in the Pandorica Opens, River got a time agency wrist strap, but it was called a vortex manipulator all the time. Surely time agency wrist strap is just the unscientific name for it? I think the pages should be merged.

Also, if they are to stay separate, then they will need to be revised. The vortex manipulator would only have the functions of time travel and teleporting, and then the other things would be part of the time agency wrist strap, yes?

I'd like some input on this before I do anything. The Thirteenth Doctor 23:23, July 18, 2010 (UTC)

apparently, the time agency wrist strap teleports, the vortex manipulator just travels to different places in the time/space continum. Codename: 122.59.153.89 05:52, July 19, 2010 (UTC)

I'd support a merger, 'Time Agency wrist strap' sound like a name we've given it. Looking at the what links here lists, there's certainly more going to vortex manipulator. --Tangerineduel 12:58, July 19, 2010 (UTC)

How do we merge them then? Does an admin have to do it? --The Thirteenth Doctor 20:26, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

So can we merge them then? --The Thirteenth Doctor 09:43, September 1, 2010 (UTC)

Yep they can be merged. An admin needs to do it as it's a process of deleting pages, restoring etc to preserve the page's history, something I'll do after I hit save on this. --Tangerineduel 12:30, September 2, 2010 (UTC)
