Recommendation to Merge

I recommend that this article be merged with Warp Force Empires. This game was renamed to Warp Force Empires by the publisher in 1984—announced in the May–June issue of The Space Gamer. [1] Although its player communication system was revised in the process, the earlier version called Warp Force One is not likely to meet the standards of notability from what I can tell. If it does, it can always be split back out.

If it's truly a rename and essentially the same game, then I have no objection to a merge. Do we know which name was used longer or has more sources so we can determine which article name should be retained? BOZ ( talk) 22:16, 2 April 2022 (UTC) reply
BOZ, I recommend merging this article, Warp Force One, into the other one, Warp Force Empires. The available sources run for four years from 1980 to 1984 for Warp Force One and five years for War Force Empires from 1984 to 1989. There are quite a few more sources available for the latter vs the former, so it makes sense to consolidate under that one, IMO, since most of the material in a fully-developed, combined, article will reflect that title.

I have placed all the relevant information from this article into the other article, Warp Force Empires. IMO, this article can now be deleted. Airborne84 ( talk) 23:37, 7 April 2022 (UTC) reply

That's not really necessary, it can just be redirected. BOZ ( talk) 23:39, 7 April 2022 (UTC) reply
Works for me. If no one else objects, I can do it later next week. No particular rush. Airborne84 ( talk) 22:26, 8 April 2022 (UTC) reply
