Future Work

[edit]

I've started this article out very short, but a quick look over Google Books shows that there's plenty of additional material mentioning Urtak that could be added. If I get back to it, or if someone else gets the urge first, there should be enough information for a decent-sized article. Alephb (talk) 00:13, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

[edit]

User:Tagishsimon, I've noticed your merger suggestion. I had not been aware of the existence of Urtaku, but now that I know I absolutely agree they should be merged. Is this some kind of formal process that has to be discussed for a while, like a deletion, or is this just something where I can go ahead and create the merged article myself. I'd suggest that the location of the final article be Urtak (king of Elam), because my cursory search says that's a somewhat more common name for the guy, but it doesn't make much difference either way. I'm guessing that once we have the final merged article, we just turn the other one into a redirect, right? Alephb (talk) 00:24, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There's no ceremony. Grab any of the content of Urtaku you want to salvage, and overwrite it all with #redirect [[Urtak (king of Elam)]], remove the {{merge}} from Urtak (king of Elam) and you're good to go. I find the list of kings of Elam slightly mind blowing; the fact we have documentation from then. And. HYN to you :) --Tagishsimon (talk) 00:30, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It is amazing how much we have on the Ancient Near East. All right, I'll merge things together. Alephb (talk) 00:41, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
