Introduction of links to this page do not "take".

Have added cross-references to this page, for the first seven search hits appearing here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=Macromolecular+Assembly&title=Special%3ASearch&fulltext=1

and these yet appear in red. I haven't the resources to resolve why these cross-references appear to be broken. Prof. D. Meduban (talk) 22:21, 20 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

May just have been a caching issue. I did a few more, and they look fine on my end. -- Daniel Mietchen - WiR/OS (talk) 23:00, 22 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge proposal

Only now found this page and I think that Biomolecular complex page is more-or-less about the same topic. Should "Macromolecular assembly" and "Biomolecular complex" be merged into one article? Kazkaskazkasako (talk) 12:57, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal

I propose to merge Biomolecular complex into Macromolecular assembly. The former is the short article, the latter the more comprehensive. Critically, the short article states in its "See also" section, "Macromolecular assembly: macromolecular assembly in biology is the same as biomacromolecular complex." This is nearly accurate, but not quite—the subset of biomolecular complexes (short article title) that are biomacromolecular complexes, most all of them, are a proper subset of all of the macromolecular assemblies (long article title), an article which will ultimately include non-biological examples—but this statement is close enough to being true that the short article itself argues in favour of its being subsumed. (And, no presented material at the short article needs be excluded/omitted in a merger.) 2601:246:C700:9B0:48A6:82D4:5919:3B87 (talk) 15:21, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support. --Iztwoz (talk) 07:13, 29 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Done

Merge proposal

I propose to merge Macromolecular cages into this article. The topics are similar. Wikipedia has many lightly curated articles on this area. See Talk:Supramolecular chemistry#Merge and organization proposals. So, having fewer better articles is probably a good idea. Also [Macromolecular cages]] is a homework project, which are usually weaker.--Smokefoot (talk) 16:13, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
