Merge proposal

Since German submarine Deutschland and SM U-155 are about the same craft and, given the length of the two articles, it doesn't make much sense to have two separate articles about the same submarine. Because merchant submarines are a very rare type of vessel, I believe that the sub has higher notability under the name of Deutschland. If there are no objections, I will merge the two articles. — Bellhalla (talk) 19:40, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good suggestion. I would have done it, but I'm uncertain about how to do the infobox to show both careers. Salmanazar (talk) 17:06, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
