thread_title:  External links modified 

message: It is proposed that the content from Colin McCool with the Australian cricket team in England in 1948 should be merged into this article and when the merge is completed that the page should be redirected to this article.--John Cline (talk) 05:36, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Oppose, though mainly because no reason is given, so I favour maintaining the status quo, especially as the articles are both of "Good" status. I would reconsider my position if sufficient argument is provided for a merge. Harrias talk 10:52, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm going to withdraw the request , as you said: in favour of maintaining the status quo. Aside that, I couldn't find an actual policy-based rationale supporting the merge and the extrapolations I tried to pursue began sounding more and more like versions of "I don't like it" than anything else. I appreciate your participation here, and wish you the best.--John Cline (talk) 22:18, 28 March 2019 (UTC)
