(Not sure if this forum is the right place to ask this - is there a Trope Repair Shop equivalent for works?)

Basically:

GURPS Alternate Earths is 1996 (a pair of) GURPS 3rd edition books that outline a bunch of Alternate History settings.

Infinite Worlds is a GURPS 4th edition book that combines (abridged) descriptions of the worlds from Alternate Earts, together with briefer descriptions of many more worlds, and links them all together in a parallel-time-travel setting.

The result is that there's a lot of redundancy between the two pages, and also some spillover of worlds only discussed in the second book on the first books' page. Should we merge them?

Given that Alterate Earths was meant principally as a supplement to the Infinite Worlds setting (introduced in GURPS Time Travel), it probably makes sense to merge them

Proposed merges go through TRS. You launch a thread linking to one and proposing a merge with the other.
