- Maybe if we looked at it as "migrating answers" and not "merging questions"? Keep the duplicate question - closed as a dup with link to the canonical question - and just move the answers to the open question?AnonJr– AnonJr2009-12-08 21:02:26 +00:00Commented Dec 8, 2009 at 21:02
- That sounds like a reasonable way to merge them IF you can't change the title to match search queries that would also have returned the other one. If you can massage the title -- or the titles already turn up in the same queries -- then I don't see any point in keeping both questions.tvanfosson– tvanfosson2009-12-08 21:28:53 +00:00Commented Dec 8, 2009 at 21:28

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. stack-overflow), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
