Copy and paste

I am sorry to see you do know the difference between a copy-an-past plus redirect and a merge. I suggest you look it up. - Brya 04:49, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

What is a merge, if not when "somebody copies the content into another article, empities and redirects the original article"?

A merge is when the page histories are merged, and not just the contents of the page. - Brya 04:51, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

I've almost never seen that happen. Most merges are non-admin actions.
