Proposed merge of [[Jewellery of Tamil Nadu]] into [[Jewellery]]

{{atopr

| status = withdrawn

| result = The result is not merged as I have withdrawn this proposal.

WP:MERGECLOSE allows for WP:involved closes. ~ Aselestecharge-paritytime 20:26, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

Jewellery of Tamil Nadu currently is mostly a listing, which is unencyclopedic. Apart from that, the article is badly sourced. However, the text here could be suitable in Jewellery#Indian subcontinent. If this is not the case, I am open to deletion. ~ Ase1estecharge-paritytime 13:14, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

:Looks like this can merge per WP:SILENCE, but I am quite sure how to merge it. Help merging if you can. ~ Ase1estecharge-paritytime 14:51, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

:Oppose The last thing we want is that list here. Otherwise there's not much. I'd leave it, & hope for improvement. Or a merge to Culture of Tamil Nadu. Johnbod (talk) 16:00, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

::Looks like I somehow missed this message on my watchlist...

::I will reply later. ~ Ase1estecharge-paritytime 10:24, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

::{{Re|Johnbod}} Re-evaluating, it looks like merging into this article is not the best idea. It looks like merging will give a disproportional weight to that specific culture.

::

::As for merging to Tamil Nadu, it also looks like this will give a disproportional weight to it.

::

::I think I will simply withdraw this proposal then. ~ Aselestecharge-paritytime 20:19, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

Africa was missing, and needs more examples

As Africa was missing from the continental overviews, I have just added this continent and placed the jewellery of the Berber countries in North Africa under Ancient Egypt. Obviously, there should be more African traditions of jewellery added, but I will have to leave this to more competent editors. Munfarid1 (talk) 17:16, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
