This article is very similar in scope to Arba'een. The two articles need to explain why they are different to each other or they need to be merged. The articles even share the same picture. This should have been spotted before this went to the main page. Victuallers (talk) 12:10, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Oppose: I think you are misunderstanding two different concepts. Arba'een is a day which is of importance for Muslims specially Shia Muslims. While Arba'een Pilgrimage refers to the act of going to Karbala on foot on this day. The pilgrimage (which is done on foot), as the world's largest annual gathering, is notable enough to have its own page. There are various sources dedicated to this specific thing and not on the "day". Arba'een needs to be trimmed so that the repeated materials are deleted.

About the same topic, but see the above discussion for other comments. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 16:51, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Emir of Wikipedia: What does it mean? the proposal's already spoiled above. --Mhhossein ^talk 11:52, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • In my view they are the some topic, both the pilgrimage and the day. The discussion above only had two members so I am a not sure if that is enough for consensus. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 12:03, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Before removing merger tag it is placed on talk page that Arba'een Pilgrimage is commemorated only in Karbala (Iraq) whereas Arbaeen is commemorated in the different countries and numerous cities of the world. For further reference, if WP has a page of Atom, then why there is need of pages for Proton and Electron? We have (In brief) for specific info and excerpting point to point knowledge.
