Merging Disc (galaxy)
[edit]- I wholeheartedly agree! Merge with a clear conscience! Lusanaherandraton 08:11, 28 July 2005 (UTC)
- OPPOSE, because disc (galaxy) is an article about a component of a galaxy, like bulge, arm, halo, whereas disc galaxy talks about a type of galaxy, where a galactic disc is a standard component of (also bulge, but not arm, since arms are only found in the disc galaxy subtype known as spirals) 132.205.44.134 23:10, 29 July 2005 (UTC)
