wikiHow:Merge Team
[edit] What is the Merge Team?
The merge team is a group of volunteer editors that comb through wikiHow articles, looking for articles or groups of articles that can be merged to make a more comprehensive single article. There are those who comb through articles and tag them for merging, there are editors who actually complete the merge, and there are "finishers" who wrap up the article by adding pictures and polishing the edits.
[edit] Become a Team Member
The great thing about the Merge Team is that anyone can be a member! No single editor or group of editors is responsible for all merging, so please feel free to merge away! This team is merely a group of editors who incorporate merging into their daily work on wikiHow.

Poring over the merge policy as if it's the constitution, leaving long, detailed and almost apologetic comments on discussion pages explaining why I placed or removed a merge tag, and keeping a close eye on carefully nurtured frequent merge targets. |
