There are three (or arguably four) redundant pages about Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, each with largely similar information. First, there is the page about them as twins: Mary-Kate_and_Ashley_Olsen. Then, each twin has her own page: Mary-Kate_Olsen and Ashley_Olsen. ADDITIONALLY, there is a stub about their twins-focused production company, Dualstar, which repeats some of the info on this page and doesn't seem to have info that couldn't easily be incorporated into the other pages.
I propose that we merge the three (or four) articles into two articles, by dissolving the Mary-Kate_and_Ashley_Olsen page and making sure that all the information on that page is included on the twins' individual pages. So this Mary-Kate page would be one of the two TARGET articles, and the Mary-Kate_and_Ashley_Olsen page would be the FROM article.
Are there other famous twins that have three pages about themselves: one for each twin, then one for the twins as a duo? It seems very redundant, and I don't understand why it has existed this way on Wikipedia for so long. The twins page only has 10 very short paragraphs about their twin acting career, and 3 short paragraphs about their twin fashion career, so it seems like those paragraphs could be integrated into each woman's individual page.
I very much welcome the input of other editors! Aroundthewayboy ( talk) 12:23, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
