Merging issues solved for now. Thanks for the input!

Hello! I use the Italian interface, and the merge tool is in the upper right tabs: Altro > Unione con l'elemento... I checked the English interface, and it seems it's the Merge Wizard. I hope this helps. Have a nice day! ~~~~

Okay, thanks for your reply! Yes, this looks like the “Merge” gadget from Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets. I guess you use it with the “Create a redirect” checkbox activated (I can’t even deactivate it, but who knows what’s possible there…), but then something is broken or whatever in the gadget.

Since I don’t know what exactly went wrong, I have to make a bigger survey involving other users as well :-) This is very annoying for a couple of weeks now, because there are plenty of empty items with missing redirects. User:PLbot does indeed try to repair such cases and it is successful in most cases, but I’d prefer a situation where this workaround involving bots wouldn’t be necessary.

Nevertheless, you can of course go on with your work, and don’t worry about this one. If you notice something suspicious however, please let me know. Regards!

OK, I'll revert to you if something goes wrong. Ciao

Something went wrong: [[:Q32641997]] didn't become a redirect to [[:Q9218410]].

Thanks. Did you use the merge gadget again?

There is now a discussion at Wikidata:Project chat#Merge with quickstatements don't work? about this problem, and phab:T172649. It shows up as well when QuickStatements is used to merge items. If you have an important observation to contribute, you can either leave it in one of those places or tell me here.

Regards!

I used the Merge Wizard as usual.
