Merge into Help:Redirect?

It looks like this page Wikipedia:How to make a redirect has the same purpose as Help:Redirect#Creating and editing redirects although the information is written differently. In particular, only this page has an inputbox that helps users create a redirect. I'm thinking maybe this page should be merged into that one. Thoughts? Krubo (talk) 07:41, 2 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I second that. Shubjt (talk) 13:30, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support. This seems to be a redundant page. C F A 💬 23:02, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

agreed. Seems to be just a slightly more out of date/less comprehensive version of Help:Redirect. I don't really see the value in having both of these two pages Tomatoswoop (talk) 01:34, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support, It's better to merge. Gaplow43286 (talk) 05:54, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support Yes, they both have the same purpose. Who am I? / Talk to me! / What have I done? 15:34, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support Duplicates content. Ca ^{talk to me!} 01:08, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Most of what's here already seems to be covered there, and the content which isn't could be easily merged. – Michael Aurel (talk) 06:50, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think sometimes a quick, simple page is easier for beginners to follow, like Help:Archiving (plain and simple). — Qwerfjkl talk 16:59, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support The information of the second article can simply be added at the bottom of the page. As both articles are discussing the same feature. Rager7 (talk) 23:47, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
