I think this article should be merged with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notification_service to make one full article, rather than two stub articles about the same thing. UNSC Luke 1021 (talk) 19:19, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Another Article At least two other articles, Notification service and Push technology, are good canditates for merge. Take your pick. UNSC Luke 1021 (talk) 11:50, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep There is sufficient coverage of this topic as well as ongoing academic discussion of various push notification systems and technologies (GScholar results) which can be used as a basis for this article. High beam shows lots of ongoing research and patents so sources on the basic/general techinolgy are very likely to exist per WP:NEXIST.
Should not be merged because Notification service seems to include not only push technology but things like Reverse 911 and EMWIN. Jbh ^Talk 15:47, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Push technology may be a valid merge target instead. Jbh ^Talk 17:13, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I was going to suggest that, but Push technology is kind of confusing, so I couldn't really get a clear understanding of it. Maybe I'm just tired but if you think that it fits, then you can make your decision. UNSC Luke 1021 (talk) 11:48, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Also, did you know that the page won't link if you capitalize the 't' in 'technology'? UNSC Luke 1021 (talk) 11:48, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Articles are titled in sentence case ie "Push technology" rather than "Push Technology" or "push technology" however it is possible to create a WP:REDIRECT by creating a one line article consisting of #REDIRECT [[Original article name]] with an alternate spelling, or alternate name which will then be linkable. If there is no redirect and it is not appropriate to/you do not want to make one it is possible to pipe the display text - [[Push technology|arbitarry text]] --> arbitrary text.
