I realise that these two articles were originally one but it's far more common to have them exist on the same page with the scottish content existing as a subsection on the main page. The only time that regional variations should be spun off in to their own artcles should be when they become too big

Well, my first thought was to find out just how many other countries actually do call their SU/SA/student representation bodies "SRC"s. I had understood it to be a term coined by the British law referred to in the original article. However, upon Googling, I see they exist in (at least) South Africa,

Hmm, I suppose the move has just replaced one sort of untidiness with another. Sorry about that. I did think of having a single "Students' Representative Council" page with a subsection on Scotland, but that approach encourages lots of subsections and the article ends up sounding like a telephone
276:
to be inlcuded in the main page, given that both articles are very short I don't think this will be a problem. If the incoming links are a problem then it shouldn't be that difficult to have them link to the specfic section of the article that they refer to.

It would appear you've not merged them. But I am very much against such a merge. SRCs are not students' unions, nor are they any sort of regional variant of them. They are quite different and separate bodies, and indeed higher in standing than unions.

Australia, and Botswana. So your point about a "telephone directory" seems like a very fair one. I guess the relatively minor effort of changing the Scottish articles will resolve the untidiness. I've tried to do all the relevant ones. –

I am the Vice President of the SRC at my High School here in Australia. Personally I think that the two topics shou7ld remain seperate as we dont see ourselfvs as a union. We work as a council not a Union.

This article continues to be an unsourced OR mess. I have looked for sources and whilst the 1889 formation in Scotland can be well sourced much of the rest of the article looks tough to source.

I completely oppose this merger. The two are different things; indeed some places have (or historically have had) both an SRC and a Union. –
379: 185:
of which are Scottish articles. Are you planning to go through them and change the links to the new SRC (Scotland) page? –
391: 33: 201:
book. Before I go and change all the links in the Scottish pages, do you have any other ideas for how to do this?

This seems to have had more than enough time for discussion and so far no one has objected so I'm going to be
21: 344:
The consensus here seems to be that the articles should remain separate, so I am removing the merge header.

Even if the article can be sourced there would be undue weight on Scotland. The choices seem to be:

Previously this page had content based entirely on Scottish SRCs. I have moved that to

aggressively stub leaving only the core information and the formation in Scotland. Or,
