Merge proposal

Personally, I'd suggest not pulling off the proposed merge--just because the effect's identical doesn't make it merely the same skill with a different name in every language, and I feel merging Critcal +5 and Zeal together would be tantamount to Bulbapedia merging Air Lock and Cloud Nine together.

However, if consensus for merging does somehow gain steam, I suggest reversing the order of what's proposed--that is, Critical +5 into Zeal, acting like Critical +5 is the tagged article and Zeal is the tag's target. As far as stuff that's only appeared in the core series is concerned (non-core stuff has created some inconsistencies, but that's partly due to the whole Tellius naming mess getting Heroes involved), it's usually the most recent official English name to appear implemented in an in-series installment that gets the article title (ex. VIP Card over Member Card), which in this case would be Zeal (Awakening, compared to Radiant Dawn for Critical +5). I could write a very lengthy explanation as to the workings of how naming precedence typically goes, but I've got work to do...--Shiningpikablu252 (talk) 03:16, 22 January 2018 (UTC)

That comparison with Pokémon abilties doesn't really make sense because those two both appear in the same games together while Zeal and Critical +5 don't. One precedent I have for this is FE9 Cancel (different names in all languages) being merged into Pavise. PikaSamus (talk) 03:36, 22 January 2018 (UTC)

Also the reason I suggested merging this into Critical +5 and not the other way around is because it would be the first step in a process of merging all the Critical +x skills (I put a tag on Critical +25), which if successful would set a precedent in merging Stat + skills like we already do with Fire Emblem Heroes (so, Resistance +2 and Resistance +10 would be merged into the Resistance + page, for example).
