Merging Ronson and Lagonda ?[edit]

Hi, I've just translated the page Ronson flamethrower in french. But I read now on this page that the Lagonda flamethrower received the codename "Ronson" sometimes. Shall these two pages be merged? Waiting for advices. Cheerfully, ChoumX (talk) 14:17, 14 December 2012 (UTC).[reply]

ChoumX: There is a misunderstanding here, the ronson and the lagonda are quite distinct although they were being developed at much the same time. The whole thing is rather confusing and I think it fair to say that the logonda article leaves something to be desired. Gaius Cornelius (talk) 15:52, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
