[[:1Up.com]] → {{no redirect|1Up Network}} – This move was previously discussed [[Talk:1Up_Network#Merger%20proposal|here]] because the 1Up Network was merged to 1Up.com in order to preserve its edit history.

I would like [[1Up.com]] to be moved to [[1Up Network]] because 1Up.com is simply the website for the 1Up Network. [https://www.gamedeveloper.com/pc/ziff-davis-sells-1up-network-to-ugo-hearst-closes-egm GameDeveloper.com] appears to use 1Up Network and 1Up.com interchangeably and I can't find any sources indicating that they are separate entities. The staff page for 1up.com ([http://www.1up.com/do/minisited0ed.html?cId=3145547 here]) says, "ever wonder who the people are behind the sites and magazines you love? Here's the 1UP Network Staff Page, where you can find and meet all the people responsible for creating and running all of our 1UP network properties." The fact that the staff page of the website calls itself the 1Up Network indicates to me that 1Up.com is the URL for the 1Up Network. I don't know of any other examples where a Wikipedia page for a podcast network is the URL for the podcast network. For instance, [[crooked.com]] redirects to [[Crooked Media]], [[maximumfun.org]] redirects to [[Maximum Fun]], [[iheart.com]] redirects to [[iHeartRadio]], [[earwolf.com]] redirects to [[Earwolf]], [[gimletmedia.com]] redirects to [[Gimlet Media]], [[wondery.com]] redirects to [[Wondery]], and [[qcodemedia.com]] redirects to [[QCode]].

== Merger proposal ==
{{Discussion top|result=The result of this discussion was an uncontroversial merge. [[User:TipsyElephant|TipsyElephant]] ([[User talk:TipsyElephant|talk]]) 15:52, 7 June 2022 (UTC)}}
I propose merging [[4 Guys 1Up]] into [[1Up Network]] because the two are so closely related and this page is almost exclusively supported by primary or unreliable sources. I don't think this would survive an AfD, but merging it seems like a clear choice to preserve some of this content.
