Talk:Colm Merrick

New MSP

Colm Merrick has been elected as MSP for Glasgow Anniesland [], so this page should probably be filled out from the usual sources BertieB (talk) 15:16, 8 May 2026 (UTC)

Merge of Draft page

The page at Draft:Colm_Merrick is good though has some unnecessary bits ("is the candidate..."). I am happy to do a manual fold-in of the content if so desired? BertieB (talk) 12:07, 9 May 2026 (UTC)

I've done a first pass pulling in most of Draft:Colm_Merrick, so I have removed the merge req banner; I assume this is right approach but of course welcome correction. Thanks for the draft @Moondragon21! BertieB (talk) 12:20, 9 May 2026 (UTC)

Thanks @BertieB. Can the history be merged too? Moondragon21 (talk) 12:09, 10 May 2026 (UTC)

I'm happy for someone who has the capability to merge to do so :) BertieB (talk) 19:39, 10 May 2026 (UTC)

Because the two articles have WP:PARALLEL edits in their histories, I've converted the draft into a redirect and added the {{copied}} banner to this page to handle attribution. There was also already some form of attribution in an earlier edit summary as advised by WP:Merging. Rjjⁱⁱⁱ (talk) 03:59, 11 May 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for doing that @Rjjiii BertieB (talk) 14:04, 19 May 2026 (UTC)

BLP refimprove no longer needed?

The 'additional references needed' notice is probably not needed as we have a number of good sources for all the material currently on the page. It can be left in place for a few days as the page might see some continued attention following the election and it would serve as a useful reminder. -- BertieB (talk) 12:25, 9 May 2026 (UTC)
