Merge/redirect

1. In RationalWiki:Duplicate_articles/Archive14#Merge_Buttered_cat_theory.E2.80.8E_with_Murphy.27s_Law, there was a consensus to merge, but actually finding the content to merge is limited. It probably is missional, but it doesn't have enough content to have an article. As such, it should be merged. The reason, however, as to why not to just use RW:DUPLICATE, is because it was used and didn't work out. This is the next step. Andrew5 (talk) 15:36, 19 November 2021 (UTC)
2. Merge and preserve the content from Buttered cat theory as appropriate. There is some good text in it and a couple of interesting references too. I do not feel that the complete deletion of the article and simply putting in a redirection is appropriate. —cosmikdebris ^talk stalk 16:03, 19 November 2021 (UTC)

   The main issue is that it would put undue weight on this, bloating the article with this one thing and making it disproportional unless everything is expanded. Andrew5 (talk) 20:12, 19 November 2021 (UTC)

   The content in Buttered cat theory could be compressed as most of it seems to summarize the content of the referenced Georgia Tech article. —cosmikdebris ^talk stalk 20:21, 19 November 2021 (UTC)

   As of right now, all that exists is one bullet point and to not add undue weight,a full section is needed. Andrew5 (talk) 21:29, 19 November 2021 (UTC)

   Merged. Should we add a redirect or nah? Jake Holmes^{yell at me} 17:01, 27 November 2021 (UTC)

   I am about to do so. Andrew5 (talk) 18:19, 27 November 2021 (UTC)

3. Merge, add redirect. Bongolian (talk) 17:50, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
