Merge suggestion[edit]

Propose merging HMAS Jervis Bay (AKR 45) into this article along the lines of HSC Manannan which has both a civilian and military history. Both are about the same vessel with a fair amount of content forking. The individual service histories aren't long and complicated enough to require separate articles.

Oppose - both of these articles have enough content to merit their own separate articles. Further oppose based on my response to another merge request this user posted for two similar pages; Oppose - per the very reasons cited by the opposer. This vessel has both a military history and a civilian history, there is no need to conflate the two. Take for example the similar article, such as the MV Dublin Swift [aka Westpac Express (HSV-4676)] page, where documenting two different histories in a single article can lead to confusion. Even though the two pages in this proposal currently have limited content, we can see from the examples of similar vessels such as HSV-2 Swift and HSC Manannan that these articles can grow. Wikipedia is not made of paper, so we don't need to save room by needlessly condensing articles. There are other ships that have multiple articles documenting multiple histories, for example;

These are a few examples where merging was neither wanted or needed. Merging is not needed for no these pages as well. - wolf 07:04, 3 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
