Both articles cover the same topic. Merging them into one article will make them more comprehensive. Separate articles not needed here as now considering the limited content. DTM ( talk) 08:59, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
Salami tactics, we can be sure, were invented by a child […] Tell a child not to go in the water and he’ll sit on the bank and submerge his bare feet; he is not yet ‘in’ the water. Acquiesce, and he’ll stand up; no more of him is in the water than before. Think it over, and he’ll start wading, not going any deeper; take a moment to decide whether this is different and he’ll go a little deeper, arguing that since he goes back and forth it all averages out. Pretty soon we are calling to him not to swim put of sight, wondering whatever happened to all our discipline.

According to the article, salami slicing tactics involve encroaching influence and ownership over a thing. All of the examples in the frauds section are instead about penny-shaving. There is no creeping possession of a whole, they're just taking tiny bits over time. As such, I think the whole Financial Frauds section should be removed. It's not bad information for what it is but it's not relevant to the subject of the article. I'm left to wonder how they got there in the first place, and how they managed to remain for so long. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JHarris ( talk • contribs) 23:29, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
Remove the financial frauds. Coins are shaped like salami slices but that has nothing to do with tactics. 2600:6C64:7B7F:8400:CD7B:ACE1:E61D:6F11 ( talk) 14:23, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
