I propose merging [[Stephen Paddock]] into [[2017 Las Vegas shooting]]. I think that Stephen Paddock is not notable without the 2017 Las Vegas shooting; and, therefore, the content in his article can be merged into its own [[2017 Las Vegas shooting#Perpetrator|section]] within this article. While the Stephen Paddock article is well-written and even received a [[Wikipedia:B-class criteria|B classification]], much of the content is unrelated to what makes him arguably notable and thus I think can be condensed into a section instead of its own article.[[User:Geeky Randy|Geeky Randy]] ([[User talk:Geeky Randy|talk]]) 23:21, 19 January 2024 (UTC) |

Merge proposal
I propose merging Stephen Paddock into 2017 Las Vegas shooting. I think that Stephen Paddock is not notable without the 2017 Las Vegas shooting; and, therefore, the content in his article can be merged into its own section within this article. While the Stephen Paddock article is well-written and even received a B classification, much of the content is unrelated to what makes him arguably notable and thus I think can be condensed into a section instead of its own article.Geeky Randy (talk) 23:21, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
