Merger proposal

Proposal: merge articles University of Qatar and Qatar University, same subject and overlapping content. Chuckiesdad/Talk/Contribs 05:39, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"University of Qatar" is an out-of-date page, which reflects the name of the institution under a previous administrative structure. Much of the content also appears inaccurate and/or improperly cited. That page would be best be automatically forwarded to the more accurate "Qatar University", with further updates occurring there.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Mshulmanqu (talkcontribs) 06:02, 2009-03-08

  • I agree, however, the title itself is an inaccuracy, as the "University of Qatar" as a legal entity no longer exists. "Qatar University" should be the name, to distinguish the change. When someone can find an appropriate source detailing how this was done, it would be a good thing to add. Also please note: the 2009 statistic is not cited.

I think it would be best to forward the "University of Qatar" entry to "Qatar University"Mshulmanqu (talk) 10:22, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
