:::I vote for a "NO" on the matter. Should the description on [[Blood malediction]] be seen as "true":<blockquote>''A person suffering from blood malediction is known as a Maledictus.''</blockquote> Then I don't see why they should be merged; it'd be like proposing to merge [[Lycanthropy]] and [[Werewolf]], which on this wiki are separate articles. That's just my opinion though, hopefully more people can voice their opinion cuz I'd rather the {{tlx|Merge}} template to be removed soon.

This makes ''no sense'' to merge these two pages after yesterday's revelations. A maledictus' blood curse is totally different from Astoria's blood curse. One turned you permanently into a beast, the other kill you. One is given genetically from mother to daughter, the other is not "a genetically inheritable illness". That's enough to make the difference between both.<br>

Actually, if we want to be really precise we should have: one page for maledictuses' blood curse, one page for Astoria's and one general page about blood maledictions. Just like we would do with any spell, potion, curse, etc... [[User:Lady_Junky|Lady]] [[Message Wall:Lady_Junky|Junky]] 07:22, September 26, 2018 (UTC)

Merge?

I think this page should be merged with Blood malediction, as the pages cover vary similar information. As a curse/illness, that title also is more appropriate imo. -Tfwmuggle (talk) 20:15, August 12, 2018 (UTC)

These are most likely two diferent curses, one weakens and is fatal, the other turn the infected one into a beast. The exsistence of other blood curses is already mentioned in the article. What do the others think?Rodolphus (talk) 15:52, August 13, 2018 (UTC)
Keep them as distinct, I think. We have separate pages for Lycanthropy and Werewolves, and here what you have is the disease-curse and what you call those infected by it, in effect. Separate pages with links to one another is fine and more accurately represents what is going on with the two phenomena. Estrildis (talk) 01:28, August 15, 2018 (UTC)
I vote for a "NO" on the matter. Should the description on Blood malediction be seen as "true":

A person suffering from blood malediction is known as a Maledictus.

Then I don't see why they should be merged; it'd be like proposing to merge Lycanthropy and Werewolf, which on this wiki are separate articles. That's just my opinion though, hopefully more people can voice their opinion cuz I'd rather the {{Merge}} template to be removed soon.
