Move?

No. Move as proposed and add a hatnote, per WP:TWODABS. "Capital Wheel" was never the WP:COMMONNAME for the Manchester wheel. 180.183.4.79 (talk) 10:43, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
(Note that Capital Wheel was as redirect until earlier today). 180.183.4.79 (talk) 19:45, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
This is a move proposal (I had expected it to be moved immediately as an uncontroversial technical request - I didn't spot that the 'old' Capital Wheel redirect had just been converted to a dab page). Maybe this article will be improved when the new wheel opens; if not, or if not by much, then the merge will most likely be appropriate. 180.183.4.79 (talk) 19:45, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merge?

  • Oppose a merge for now. Other similar wheels (see here for examples) are considered notable just by their existence. Sources are already covering the Capital Wheel not just as a wheel but for its role ion changing the regional image (e.g., here). Keep it for now and give editors some time to work on it.  AjaxSmack  12:10, 30 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
