I don't think the keyboard has a MIDI IN port. Only MIDI out —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.216.130.73 (talk) 15:03, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal

I propose that we move Roland AX-1 to a new umbrella name, Roland keytars, and merge into it any reliably sourced content from overlapping topics Roland AX-7, Roland AX-Synth, and Draft:Roland AX-Edge.

Guideline WP:PRODUCT encourages large, comprehensive articles. It says, "Avoid creating multiple stubs about each individual product." The pages on these four models of Roland keytars cite, in total, one independent reliable source, the other cited sources being user-generated, press releases, or the company, so there's no evidence that each model is independently notable. (Indeed, the notability of the entire line is unsettled. If no additional sources are found, the line could be further merged into the corporation article, but I will leave that possibility for consideration in the future.)

I think that the content in the four model pages could easily be explained in the broader context of Roland keytars, and the proposed Roland keytars article will be a reasonable size when the four-into-one merger is complete. --Worldbruce (talk) 07:05, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Worldbruce: Yes please, do it. No one will oppose you. Popcornduff (talk) 14:47, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I went ahead and did it myself. I'm on a cleaning spree of awful Roland articles. Popcornduff (talk) 14:57, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Oakshade: Upon unmerging Roland AX-7, you wrote in your edit summary There was zero support for this merge. This survived an AfD as "keep" which was the last true gauge of consensus. In the three months the merge was advertised, no one objected, and two editors backed merging. I'm sorry I didn't notice the prior AfD when I proposed the merge. It would have been courteous to notify you and the other editors involved in case you didn't have the article watchlisted (something I have remedied above for those still active). Is it the idea of merging that you object to, or would you like more or different content merged? --Worldbruce (talk) 06:44, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
