Comment: I did not nominate the article, I ((Prod))ed it. If it has been brought to AfD so be it! But an article cannot be deleted and merged so you are opposing your own nomination. Scolaire (talk) 12:04, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I am not opposing my own nomination because that would be silly! Yes, an article can actually be deleted and merged. Snappy56 (talk) 15:46, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
See Performing the merger: Three ways are given, all of which involve deleting text from the source and converting it to a redirect. This cannot be done if the article has been deleted, for obvious reasons. Conversely, deleting an article after cutting and pasting text makes it a delete, not a merge.
