Merge

I suggest a merger with the Clan Sea Fox article, since they have a common history. --Neufeld 20:57, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

I second the motion. ClanWolverine101 04:45, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
I would love to be involved with that project, if I ever run out of Clanners to write about lol... --Rebs 20:45, 25 March 2012 (PDT)

It might take a little while. I'm still churning out the bios, but soon most of the Operation Klondike characters and their support cast will be in hand. Then this, so that links to both names go to the same page, with everything (including the name change) being well explained. --Rebs 21:59, 25 March 2012 (PDT)
Don't worry about the links. When you merge the two articles, Diamond Shark would point (redirect) to Sea Fox, so anyone clicking on Diamond Shark in an article would find themselves on Sea Fox. You could have redirect point to a specific section within the merged article, but that wouldn't be required.--Revanche (talk|contribs) 04:40, 26 March 2012 (PDT)
The big challenge here is that much content is specific to an era (especially the touman). Ideally, we tell the story of the Foxes/Sharks as one big story. Then in the touman, since their structure changes so much, we show the snapshots from each era.
Oh BTW made some changes in its history. As written, we had the Coyote version of events in the Diamond Shark article. Seeing as how Nicholas instituted Zellbrigen after his brother Andery died, and Andery died in the Pentagon campaign, I can't see how the Coyote version of events holds water. The Clans: Warriors of Kerensky explicitly says that Operation Klondike was fought using SLDF tactics, not Zellbrigen. 24.99.61.188 06:39, 17 November 2012 (PST)
