Talk:1st Academy Awards

message: It is suggested that the associated page 1st Academy Awards nominees and winners be merged into this one combining all information about the awards for this year on one page, and removing duplicated material. Thanks for your comments. Markhh (talk) 21:04, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Not really anything to discuss! The two articles are basically identical, but this one follows the naming convention of all of the others so it is the better choice. I shall enact. Manning (talk) 03:46, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

text: Merge follow-up - there was no material on the 1st Academy Awards nominees and winners that was not already in this article as far as I could tell. Here's the diff for the final version in case anyone wants to double-check. Manning (talk) 03:52, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: The problem with those tables is they increase the readibility of the page. Consider the 86 ceremonies use the current table, and there are much more awards in the subsequent years. © Tbhotch™ (en-2.5). 01:13, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
