Requested move 13 March 2017 edit
- The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: Not moved. It is clear that moving this article over the history of a similar merged article would not be appropriate, and there is no consensus for that here. Suggest discussion continue at Talk:Prostitution in Africa#Ghana and Senegal before any firm decisions are made, per Andrewa's comments below. — Amakuru (talk) 11:08, 3 April 2017 (UTC)
Sex trade in Senegal → Prostitution in Senegal – I really intended this article Sex trade in Senegal to be about prostitution and thought sex trade is a good a descriptor and then realized that Prostitution in Senegal would be a more appropriate title.

- Move per nom as per the format of the other countries' articles. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 03:22, 14 March 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose. If we wish to have an article at Prostitution in Senegal, we should instead reinstate the previous article at that title and merge and redirect this page to it, thus preserving the edit histories. Andrewa (talk) 22:10, 22 March 2017 (UTC)
- OpposeTrade is more suitable for use in business.--Tr56tr (talk) 01:10, 23 March 2017 (UTC)

Discussion edit
This is a real mess. There were previous articles at Prostitution in Senegal and Prostitution in Ghana that were merged to Prostitution in Africa. Both of those previous articles were started and largely built by Dwanyewest, who now has started two new articles and wants them both moved over the redirects, see Talk:Sex trade in Ghana#Requested move 13 March 2017. This all seems out of process to me, and has created a significant and unnecessary task preserving the edit histories, if the moves go ahead. Andrewa (talk) 09:09, 21 March 2017 (UTC)
I have posted heads-ups at WikiProject Africa and WikiProject Sexology and sexuality asking for help with this.
The easiest solution is to merge and redirect these new articles to Prostitution in Africa, as was done with the previous articles. But that may not be the best solution. Comments please. Andrewa (talk) 09:40, 21 March 2017 (UTC)
- I believe there is enough information and sources to justify a solo article. Dwanyewest (talk) 16:45, 21 March 2017 (UTC)
- That may be so, but recreating articles you created in the first place that had since been merged is not the way to do it. We now have a situation where the histories of the (original) merged articles must be preserved for copyleft purposes, because it's less work to do that than to work out exactly what and whose contributions have been incorporated into the other article.
- I still believe that the neatest solution now is to merge and redirect your latest articles too. Then, if you wish to split out solo articles, discuss that per wp:split#Procedure If unsure...
- Interested in other ideas... particularly from people prepared to do the work involved (and I recognise you are one of those). Andrewa (talk) 03:22, 22 March 2017 (UTC)
- The original text moved to the above topic.
- Butsex trade is closer business than prostitution.Prostitution is a moral judgment.--Tr56tr (talk) 01:10, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
- Not sure whether you mean we should or should not move... can you explain? Andrewa (talk) 22:01, 22 March 2017 (UTC)
- Please note that Tr56tr has modified a post to which I had already replied, possibly not realising that this violates the talk page guidelines. Andrewa (talk) 01:43, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
Whatever happens to this RM, no further moves, merges or splits affecting this topic should take place without discussion. Talk:Prostitution in Africa#Ghana and Senegal is probably the place to start. Andrewa (talk) 22:39, 22 March 2017 (UTC)
