Merger proposal[edit]

Hi. I think this article clearly falls under the (unintentional) content fork category and all four Reasons for merger apply. I propose merging Secretariat of Public Security into Secretariat of Security and Civilian Protection, since the latter has the updated title. It would probably make more sense if the History subsection contains the evolution from the Secretariat of Public Security to the National Security Commission, and finally to the Secretariat of Security and Civilian Protection, with a subsection for each, as, admittedly, all three had/have quite different attributions, but not enough as to be considered completely different departments, and ultimately serve the same main objective. A good example for the layout of continuity/evolution could be the Article on the ever-changing Oficina de la Presidencia de la República.

Support as providing a more holistic view and being less fragmented. I made this to cover the gap, and there's a lot of topic here. The merged article could probably absorb content from es:Comisión Nacional de Seguridad as well. Raymie (t • c) 07:11, 14 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Strongly oppose This is a Cabinet-level post charged with supervising the National Guard (Mexico). No one would suggest that the FBI or Scotland Yard should be relegated to obscure sections of their countries' government pages, and this article should not be either.

Closing, given the uncontested objection; 5-year history gap between organizations also suggests a lack of continuity. Klbrain (talk) 09:54, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
