Party Name[edit source]

"Scottish National Party" is annoying to type out, so the category is just "SNP". But unlike Ukip who are never, ever referred to as the UK Independence Party by anyone, the SNP are commonly called "Nats" or "the Scottish Nationalists" so I think we ought preserve the full party name in the page name. (This same logic applies to the SDP, the Tories and the Lib Dems.)

I'm therefore merging the "SNP" page into this one. Lolitics (talk) 15:43, 17 May 2015 (UTC)

Because there's no chronological overlap between the page histories (there are no edits of Scottish National Party after SNP was created), I'm also going to do a history merge. Do not do this if two merged pages have overlapping edit histories.Lolitics (talk) 16:11, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
Nevermind! For some godforsaken reason MediaWiki is happy to merge the histories of any page (Tony Blair? Sure! Social Democratic Party? Why not!) except SNP with this one. So I fear TPTC's edit history is going to be lost to the sands of time... Lolitics (talk) 16:24, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
