Merge "Powerlacing shoes" to Nike Mag? No way! Actually, it should be the other way around, merge "Nike Mag" to Powerlacing shoes. Nike Mags do not lace themselves, they don't have a light up logo and they aren't part of the BTTF universe. Doc: "Here Marty, put on these Nike Mag (TM) brand shoes that were manufactured three years ago. Marty: "Nike Mag (TM) brand shoes! All right!! These are a lot better than anything I have back in 1985, just as Nike shoes are better than other types of footwear." —Unsigned comment by McFord (talk • contribs).
- I understand that. I placed merge tags on both articles so that we would be able to decide which was the better direction. As the Mag is an out-of-universe term, we could redirect it to "powerlacing shoes" or even "powerlacing Nikes" but then cover the real shoe in the behind the scenes section. -- Riffsyphon1024 16:17, January 10, 2013 (UTC)
- Is “Nike MAG” really out-of-universe given it’s molded into the back of the screen-used shoes? I don’t recall any reference to them being called the “Air MAG” though. Tonyruscoe (talk) 23:03, January 26, 2015 (UTC)
- Maybe that's the confusion. In the time since I left this comment, I have seen the Mag part on the back of the shoes. -- Riffsyphon1024 06:20, January 27, 2015 (UTC)
- In which case, it sounds like these two articles just need a bit of editing rather than merging. I'll take a stab at that. – Tonyruscoe (talk) 20:08, January 28, 2015 (UTC)
