Oppose I think that these two articles are separately notable and it wouldn't make sense to fill Craig's article with too many fine details of the scandal. Mysterymanblue 09:39, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The scandal at the time gained significant media attention and was a notable event. Given how the length of this article is basically the same as the article for the scandal it would not make sense to merge. JayJayWhat did I do?02:15, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose It was a notable event in U.S. political history. The implications for LGBTQ, free speech, and American electoral politics, Senate ethics, etc. could not be adequately covered in the main Larry Craig article. There doesn't seem to be consensus for a merger, and this merger proposal is eight months old. Can the merger flag be removed now? Minnemeeples (talk) 19:18, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
