- @ISNIplus, I should have updated the page instance (Wikimedia disambiguation page to human) before merging. But still they are both the same and should get along. Please take another look and it would be great if you could merge it. Thank You! Ainty Painty (talk) 10:21, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Ainty Painty, what you call an update is a change of the meaning of an item. This is a no go! It's absolutely forbidden! You can't merge different items only because of the sidelinks. If a sidelink is wrong just delete the sidelink. --Kolja21 (talk) 14:36, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Kolja21, Thank you for the clarification. However, I am curious about the existence of this item as a disambiguation page with no sidelinks. Could you please provide some insight into this too? Thank you! Ainty Painty (talk) 16:16, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
- Just take a look at the history of en:Labid. Once it was a disambiguation page: "Shhhnotsoloud moved page Labīd to Labid without leaving a redirect." So the meaning of the sidelink changed. Since Q6467066 is now unused this item might get deleted (but it should not be reused or merged). --Kolja21 (talk) 16:41, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Kolja21, Thank you for the explanation and I appreciate your guidance on this matter. Ainty Painty (talk) 16:45, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
