Merge from[edit]

Merge all [List of colonial governors in 15xx] into List of territorial governors in the 16th century.

There are too many "List of colonial governors in 0000" pages, and they are not well maintained, nor simple to maintain. For example, the territorial and colonial governors in 2016 is very nearly the same as governors in 2015. It is very combersome to verifiy, maintain, and navigate the hundereds of pages like this. For earlier times it should merged into lists of state leaders by century. For more recent centuries, they can split by either decade or another method. Also see discussion at Talk:List of territorial governors in the 21st century#Merge from. tahc ^chat 19:23, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Since there is no objections and this user has starting merging/redirecting pages, I will take it as WP:CON to merge. The my-year pages are really in poor shape and the by-year already has all their data and much more. tahc ^chat 15:51, 27 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
