Proposed merge
editThe following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
The SENS Research Foundation as an organization merged into the Lifespan Research Institute sometime last year, and since neither is an exceptionally long article, they can be merged on Wikipedia with everything historic to SENS being included in a section on the merged topics.

- Support merge. With the merger between the organizations, it makes sense to discuss them in the same article and will provide a clearer narrative for readers. Schazjmd (talk) 13:31, 14 July 2025 (UTC)
- Disagreed. Please review recent updates on LRI wiki. SENS Research Foundation requires it's own historic wiki page as it has 15 years of independent existence. 192.155.159.235 (talk) 21:07, 15 July 2025 (UTC)
- These are two relatively short articles. The independent existence of the SENS Research Foundation can easily be included in the article on its current entity. BD2412 T 21:28, 16 July 2025 (UTC)

*Oppose. There is precedent in health-field Wikipedia articles involving mergers for keeping the pre-merger article intact, eg, CommonSpirit Health, Corewell Health. The SENS article just needs to be converted where needed to past tense. 5Q5|✉ 12:09, 25 July 2025 (UTC)
- 5Q5, even if there's precedent in other situations, is there any reason why these two specific articles should remain separate and that WP:PAGEDECIDE doesn't apply here? Thebiguglyalien (talk) 🛸 00:47, 10 December 2025 (UTC)
- Withdrawing my oppose, based on a closer review of the iffy refs and the merge target Lifespan Research Institute could use the material. 5Q5|✉ 13:06, 10 December 2025 (UTC)
- Support, the article is really short and it needs the context. FaviFake (talk) 20:26, 23 November 2025 (UTC)
- I've tagged the articles as ready to merge. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 🛸 03:17, 14 December 2025 (UTC)
Shouldn't the merge be in the other direction? SRF no longer exists; LRI is its current form. ~2026-30088-06 (talk) 10:36, 20 May 2026 (UTC)
- Fixed. FaviFake (talk) 10:52, 23 May 2026 (UTC)
