*'''Merge''' ''[[Harvest Moon DS: Sunshine Islands]]'' into ''[[Harvest Moon DS: Island of Happiness]]''.

*'''Merge''' [[Aliovit]] into [[Kajberunik]]. Both articles are talking about the same place/thing and Aliovit is unnecessary if there already is an article on Kajberunik. [[User:Spino-Soar-Us|Spino-Soar-Us]] ([[User talk:Spino-Soar-Us|talk]]) 04:38, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
*:{{Not done}} [[Aliovit]] was simply redirected to [[Kajberunik]] on 11 February 2025.

*'''Merge''' [[1966 Singaporean by-elections]] and [[1967 Singaporean by-elections]] articles into [[1966-67 Singaporean by-elections]] as because that both of the articles had in common with history relating to the en-masse resignations of [[Barisan Sosialis]] throughout 1966. This is my first time requesting this because I not sure what to do or initiate a request like this. Thanks.

*:You should add <nowiki>{{merge-to}}</nowiki> templates, etc., on the articles as discussed above & make a section on the talk page of one of the articles. Ideally, also make a section with a link to the discussion on the talk page of the relevant [[WP:WIKIPROJECT|WikiProject]]; I think there's probably one about elections, to elicit people with opinions. The procedure, I think, is then that if nobody complains for a week you can go ahead and do it. [[User:Mrfoogles|Mrfoogles]] ([[User talk:Mrfoogles|talk]]) 18:54, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

*:::{{Not done}}. Nominator did not open a merge discussion thread at either article's talk page, and other editors have since removed the merge tags, on 1 March 2025. If nom is sure such a merge should proceed, the please propose the merge properly, with a rationale given in a merge discussion at a relevant article talk page. I would suggest, however, that the idea is almost certainly mistaken, as WP covers elections and the like in separate articles when they are separate events, as these two were (separated by more than 4 months). <span style="white-space:nowrap;font-family:'Trebuchet MS'"> — [[User:SMcCandlish|'''SMcCandlish''']] [[User talk:SMcCandlish|☏]] [[Special:Contributions/SMcCandlish|¢]] 😼 </span> 22:01, 7 March 2025 (UTC)

At the very top it is mentioned that Proskynesis was used as part of religious ritual for Greeks and Romans and it consisted of kissing the land or the limbs of a respected person. In the Roman form this consisted in bringing the kiss from ones lips towards the statue of a deity with ones's fingers, this is also described in the page Adoration. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Pincermitosis|Pincermitosis]] ([[User talk:Pincermitosis#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Pincermitosis|contribs]]) 10:20, 9 December 2024 (UTC)</small>
