Do not merge. Japan and WMDs should be kept split into Japanese WMDs and US WMDs in Japan. Those articles should be split further into the various types of WMDs in Japan (nuclear, chemical, biological, toxins, herbicides, precursors etc.). Johnvr4 ( talk) 17:57, 20 March 2017 (UTC) reply

Every country that has WMD has one of these pages, as you'll see if you look. They serve as an overview of the entire subject. Some do have sub-articles, though, depending on how big the subject is. Buckshot06 (talk) 04:36, 21 March 2017 (UTC) reply

What on earth does your comment have to do with the suggestion to split US and Japan weapons and concern over the size of the US Nuclear section?

Summaries are needed and then to point to a main article on that subject. Do not put the entire article of the US program whether Nuke or all US WMD programs in Japan in that section other than a summary. It would never all fit. Johnvr4 ( talk) 12:51, 23 March 2017 (UTC) reply
