The result was merge to Banks dory. Consensus is to merge Gloucester dory, Swampscott dory and Cape Ann dory into Banks dory.
The opinions that this is the wrong venue and this should have been a talk page merge discussion have merit, but then discussion of the merge did continue here anyways and I find that it has sufficient consensus. The strongest argument is that all three sub-articles only have one single source, and it is the same exact book source for all three, making it almost impossible to write about them as truly distinct topics. However, I absolutely would not oppose further talk page discussion about the merge that may result in different consensus about keeping the topic separate or not (assuming more sourcing is uncovered). ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 16:31, 18 October 2016 (UTC)
