:The consensus seems to be, keep the pages separate, but clearly distinguished. I've done this with a clarifying comment at the top of the [[Ossian]] article, and removed the merge tags.--[[User:Nicknack009|Nicknack009]] 16:20, 15 July 2006 (UTC) |

Proposed artcle
I don't think Oisín and Ossian are duplicates. Oisín is a character from Irish and Scottish Fenian tradition. Ossian is a character from a specific work by a specific author (MacPherson). The distinction is important and should be maintained. So oppose merge. --Nicknack009 18:33, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
- Although I see from the intro of the Ossian article somebody's been muddying the waters. --Nicknack009 18:37, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
Oppose Merge
The whole MacPherson/Ossian story deserves to be told on Wikipedia however it shouldn't be told here.
Discussions of the ancient Gaelic myths should be on this page.
The Ossian episode should be noted here as just one modern reinterpretation of those old stories with a link to a separate page discussing MacPhersons works.Filceolaire 10:04, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
