Article lead

Change Electronic mail (email or e-mail) to 'email (short for "electronic mail", alternatively spelled "e-mail",'' I think that "email" should be listed first as it js the title of the article, most common name for the subject, and used throughout the article.

:Done since there seems to be no objections, though I’ve capitalised it since it’s at the start of a sentence. novov talk edits 11:11, 22 September 2024 (UTC)

Unfinished merge of {{no redirect|Email system}}

From a search through Email's revision history, it seems the merge of {{no redirect|Email system}} was never completed. It is worth attempting, as email systems are a robust topic of study. Tule-hog (talk) 22:49, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

Merge proposal

{{Discussion top|result=To not merge; unsuitable target; there is some sense that topic related to apnea might be a better target. Klbrain (talk) 18:46, 15 April 2025 (UTC)}}

{{ping|JJelax}} I propose merging Email apnea into Email#Issues due to the lack of notability, small size, and overlap. IntentionallyDense ^(Contribs) 02:22, 2 December 2024 (UTC)

:Oppose. I disagree with merging. The email article is about the technology while email apnea is about something comparable to sleep apnea. Email apnea is really about apnea while working or using a screen; the use of the word "email" in the name of the concept is an instance of synecdoche. We wouldn't merge butt dialing into buttocks. Quarl ^(talk) 03:56, 16 December 2024 (UTC)

::Just to clarify that Email apnea is a Phenomenon not a validated health condition like sleep apnea. The same argument could be made that “Email bankruptcy” isn’t related to email because it’s a type of fatigue. IntentionallyDense ^(Contribs) 21:34, 16 December 2024 (UTC)

:No opinion on the merger, but this should be listed at WP:UA lol. JuxtaposedJacob (talk) | :) | he/him | 08:26, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

::Just add it yourself! :) I can do stuff! (talk) 22:00, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

:Oppose. Email Apnea is just the name for the effect that happens as a result of Email or computer use as a whole. I really don't see how email apnea can be merged into email. I can do stuff! (talk) 14:54, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
