Hi General National Congress (2014) is an original research. Any source it is a 2014 or new GNC. The GNC continued in rebellion. --Panam2014 (talk) 15:40, 19 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Agree Charles Essie (talk) 19:01, 20 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Support EkoGraf (talk) 18:47, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. General National Congress (2014) has been renamed to National Salvation Government (Libya). Since there has been no activity in this merge request since May 2017, I will remove the merge templates from the articles. Paine Ellsworth ^put'r there 13:37, 26 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Paine Ellsworth, Charles Essie, and EkoGraf: The request merge was legitimate. I think we have to transfer the sections of the article devoted to the activity of GNC from 2014 to 2016 on this article. --Panam2014 (talk) 23:54, 1 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There was no intent to deem otherwise, Panam2014 – the merge templates were removed solely because of the length of time this merge discussion has been open with no apparent action and closure. Feel free to either complete this merge as supported by the above consensus, or to reopen this discussion by replacing the merge templates. I'm okay with either choice. Paine Ellsworth ^put'r there 02:51, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed: The other article should focus exclusively on the National Salvation Government. Charles Essie (talk) 02:58, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Support: EkoGraf (talk) 08:28, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Done --Panam2014 (talk) 15:54, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in General National Congress[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of General National Congress's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Merge[edit]

Hi @Paine Ellsworth, Charles Essie, and EkoGraf: I have merged the two parts. --Panam2014 (talk) 22:23, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You. Charles Essie (talk) 23:30, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. EkoGraf (talk) 07:48, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Paine Ellsworth, Charles Essie, EkoGraf, Dekimasu, and Pppery: Now, I think we should create an article for the Tobruk-led government. And for the both add the list of the ministers.--Panam2014 (talk) 12:17, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, and maybe one for the "High Council of Revolution". Charles Essie (talk) 16:00, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
