message: I don't think we need an article with the non-precise title of "potty parity". Let's merge it with either public toilet, Sex segregation in public restrooms or unisex public toilet. EMsmile (talk) 22:58, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

replies: text: EMsmile Please revisit the merger tag you added to the article page and fix it.  I suspect you were doing some cutting & pasting that day, and the link you have there for the merge discussion is almost certainly not the one you meant.  I would have corrected it for you, but since you mentioned three possible target pages, I didn't want to guess your intent.  By the way, you know that a merge can operate on any number of pages, so if it was your intent to merge all four articles, or any subset, you can indicate that in the  template by adding additional params.

replies: text:  Thanks, Mathglot, you're right. I have correcte it now. The article Sex segregation in public restrooms has in the meantime been merged into unisex public toilet. I propose to merge "potty parity" also into unisex public toilet. EMsmile (talk) 12:06, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:   Typically, the merge discussion takes place on the target talk page, the source article gets a  template, and the target article gets a . Mathglot (talk) 18:54, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thanks for this helpful hint. I have done the two templates now but I've left the discussion here because the talk page of unisex public toilet is rather busy at the moment. If you'd prefer to have the discussion there rather than here, feel free to move it, thanks. EMsmile (talk) 00:02, 16 May 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:  There is also an article called bathroom bill which is overlapping a lot as well. Could be merged with that one, too (instead of unisex public toilet). EMsmile (talk) 06:50, 16 May 2018 (UTC)

text:  Just to clarify: I am proposing the merger based on the reasons given here: WP:MERGEREASON, mainly the reasons called there "overlap" and "text". EMsmile (talk) 12:09, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

text: OPPOSE. Potty parity, as a phrase, seems to have settled down to a clear enough understanding: designing public buildings to get a given number of men and women through their sex-segregated toilets in the same amount of time. This concept, and the lobbying and laws that have developed over the past decade or two, are not at all the same arguments as used for bathroom bills. The first is framed about equality for women (and convenience for the men who have to wait for them in theatre intermissions etc.). The latter is framed about transgender rights. Potty parity is not, as a concept and phrase, about toilets open to men and women -- although it is true that one way to speed up women's pee time would be to create unisex toilets. But the ideas are different enough to warrant separate articles. Carbon Caryatid (talk) 23:03, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:  I think the article when you look carefully is actually very short. I am still not sure if it warrants its own article. Take a look at this section: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potty_parity#U.S.  It's a hotch potch of sentences, many of whom are the same or similar as to the ones in the former article on "sex segregation in public restrooms", which is now part of unisex public toilets but might be moved to bathroom bill soon. They should actually be deleted or moved because they are not focusin on the topic of "potty parity" but are talking about sex segregation, The only part in this article that is unique is the part under definition and maybe those examples given. I suggest we re-focus this article and then see how much is left over of it. EMsmile (talk) 02:37, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
