- Merge with Checkweigher and redirect to Weigh in motion. From some cursory searches, I can't actually find much use of people calling checkweighers in-motion scales online. More often, this seems to refer to a completely different device used to weigh trucks. Since that's the more common name, either a redirect with a hatnote 'or' potentially a disambiguation page would be sufficient. Definitely not worth the duplicate page though, since I can't find any distinction and duplicate pages are discouraged. Aamri2 (talk) 14:37, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 15:34, 5 September 2023 (UTC)- Redirect to Check weigher. There's no point in having two articles on the same subject, and of the two, check-weigher is in much better shape. There is really no material here that needs to be merged. I don't favour redirecting to Weigh in motion as this is a completely different application and scenario. Better to treat that as a "see also". Elemimele (talk) 16:41, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

Relisting comment: We have contradictor guidance here on Merge and Redirection. Just seeking an opinion or two to settle this difference of opinion on target articles.

- Redirect to checkweigher, that seems like the more reasonable option to me. I don't really see much that would be worth merging. Actualcpscm scrutinize, talk 10:48, 27 September 2023 (UTC)]
