Merge Items and Tags
planned

David Jaggi
I have created some objects which are very similar or tags which cover the same area. It would be good if we can merge the tags, items to a single one. The content of a page could then just be appended.

Tag Aliases & Tag Merging

Let's say I have the tag #Health. When I'm typing and tagging fast, I might also create tags like #Healthy or #Salud, or #Healing which are all the same thing, but unfortunately I now have four tags.
It would be great if we could
- merge similar tags and put those tags into some sort of 'aliases' field; and
- with those aliases, type any of the different names we have and it all be organized in the same tag.
Oh yeah, thank you guys so much for this awesome product. I was using Obsidian and Notion and Day One, and it's nice that I can keep everything in one place now. I switched over to 'believer' because even though there are improvements to be made, I can feel the love you all have for the product.

Another request for this. I keep accidentally making duplicate tags.

One reason this feature feels important is that Capacities often creates duplicate tags on accident. Having a quick way to merge them would make life a lot easier.

I'm hoping the Merge objects will also include merging blocks. I continue to be unclear what value grouping blocks provides. For example, if I select a group of blocks, I do not have the option to apply a tag - either to the group or even to the individual blocks in one operation.

Yes, at least the possibility to rename it .. that would help (I can't find it ..)

Vittorio Scarano: You can rename the tags by clicking in the title field.

also, when we delete an objects property it should give an option to transfer the content to another property

Yes - my tags are getting out of control. It would be good to be able to merge/consolidate them from time to time (or perhaps an AI driven merge suggestion)

Yes, merging is important. For tags it should be easy, as tags are just 'appendages' and a cross-cutting view at some information set.
For the pages and other objects, either an explicit function (select many and merge; prompt for a new name or select from the existing ones) or a simple rename to an already existing name should do the job. For example, logseq would prompt you asking to merge the notes if you try to rename it and another note with the same name already exists. That's good approach.

It would also be really nice to merge two objects. It's easy to accidentally create a new Person - and I sometimes want to merge two records together.
