AfD is flawed, because if you suggest cutting any of this stuff down, merging, or whatever, little Wikipedia cliques pop up and prevent anything from being done.
Those annoying people who insist on pointing out that there is no consensus for deletion rampages sure are killjoys, aren't they? Gosh darn them to heck!
I'm sure there is plenty that ought to be merged, though. Pending that, the important thing is that Star Trek pages (for example) get categorised properly.
AfD has nothing to do with merging, though, except that it's often recommended as part of a keep vote for something to do with the article after its AfD listing is finished. Anyone can merge an article any time without going to AfD to get "permission" about it. I've merged plenty of articles myself that way.
