==Merger?==
:''Main page for merger comments [[Talk:Webster's Dictionary]]''

Today I decided to work on extensive revisions to [[Webster's Dictionary]] and in poking around found a stub at [[Webster's New International Dictionary, Second Edition]] and a longer article at [[Webster's Third New International Dictionary]].  It seems to me it would be best to consolidate the second and third material at Webster's Dictionary, because it is the  familiar name and it would put the history of the work, which has appeared under several names in one spot; then put in redirects under the other names.  Would anyone with comments please contact me on my talk page? [[User:PedanticallySpeaking|PedanticallySpeaking]] 16:40, Oct 27, 2004 (UTC)

== Recreated ==

I wonder if a new article is necessary.  Last year I deleted what was here and consolidated the material at [[Webster's Dictionary]].  I see someone has recreated this article, however.  [[User:PedanticallySpeaking|PedanticallySpeaking]] 15:20, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
:I think it's okay to have a separate article, but if so, it should definitely be longer than the section at [[Webster's Dictionary#Webster's Third New International]]. This should be the main article about Webster's Third, with just a brief summary at [[Webster's Dictionary]]. Or else this should be re-merged there and the redirect re-created. --[[User:Angr|Angr]]/[[User_talk:Angr|<sub>{{IPA|tɔk tə mi}}</sub>]] 18:02, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

:I'm for keeping it all with ''Webster's Dictionary''.  Unless someone plans major additions here, I'm going to redirect this to that article, as it was until a few weeks ago.  [[User:PedanticallySpeaking|PedanticallySpeaking]] 20:44, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

== Re-re-created ==

This edition specifically has been the subject of two books and several articles, as well as being the most controversial dictionary of all time. Time for it to have its own article.&mdash;[[User:Chowbok|<span style="background:black; color:white; font-weight: bold;">Chowbok</span>]] [[User talk:Chowbok|<span style="color:black;">☠</span>]] 01:00, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
