Close merger proposal - Anthems in Animal Farm

A merge tag dated July 2014 was added to Anthems in Animal Farm proposing a merger to Animal Farm, with discussion pointed to Talk:Animal Farm. As far as I can see the merge tag was not added to Animal Farm or, if it was, it was subsequently deleted. Animal Farm is already a very long article (250k readable prose) and since a merge in of Anthems in Animal Farm would make it even larger, I oppose the merger. I have removed the merge tag. Any editor is free to propose such a merger again under the procedure at WP:MERGE. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 16:11, 8 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Line to add to 'popular culture'

I would like to suggest adding an episode of 'Archer' S03E11' in which Animal Farm is explicitly mentioned.

"Animal Farm, is a book." "No, it isn't Lana. It's an allegorical novella, about Stalinism, by George Orwell, AND SPOLIER ALERT, IT SUCKS!"
