Merge... edit

At Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2017 July 30#Ukrainian Medical Dental Academy it was pointed out that we had three articles that seemed to be about a single Ukrainian University. I think it is obvious there should only be one, and that the other two articles should be merged and redirected to the remaining article -- or, if there is no content to be merged, simply redirected, preserving the contribution history.

I suggested this article as the one that should be the target, even if it doesn't have the best article name, as it is the oldest, and has the longest edit history.

DMacks tried to delete Ukrainian Medical Dental Academy -- entirely the wrong solution, for various reasons, including that later contributors would not be able to access its history, to determine if it had once had content not included in the article we ended up keeping.

Support merge of Ukrainian Medical Dental Academy, Ukrainian Medical Stomatological Academy and Ukrainian Medical and Dental Academy should all be merged, and the target should be the best title, rather than the longest history. The history for all 3 pages will remain accessible on each of the history pages, so no history it lost by choosing the best title. Their website gives "Ukrainian State Medical and Dental Academy" in its English language version, so of the existing pages Ukrainian Medical and Dental Academy seems to be the best fit.
