Actually it’s not even a default gadget (although it may make sense to make it one…).

It doesn’t need to be merged. Items that are about the same concept need to be merged, not items that serve no purpose. If one item is about a real concept, while the other one is a technical item (the disambiguation item), they aren’t about the same concept. > If this should not be done merge.js should put up a big warning to never merge any disambiguation items — in which case this is still a UI bug in merge.js. This is a good idea. By the way, the UX of merge.js has several rough edges (e.g. when it does show an error/warning message, it’s often hard to understand), so it’s not surprising that there’s yet another one.
