Merge into Capital Gain
Losses are merely negative gains; one page should suffice. Further, I think that the tax ramifications of Capital Losses/Gains should be put as a separate section under Capital Gains.

I strongly agree that it should be merged into the Capital gain article. A capital loss (the concept - no its tax treatment) is always just a capital gain with a negative sign. Both are merely the profit or loss and a loss is a negative profit. The US tax treatment should be covered on
Capital gains tax in the United States; not here. This article should just redirect to
Capital gain.
