Create a Special Page for the Merge Items Api module
completed by: Bene
mentors: Addshore, Lydia Pintscher
The Wikibase extension ( that runs http://www.wikidata.org ) has an Api Module to merge two items (called MergeItems) .
The only way to use this function currently is to use the API directly. A Special Page should be created with the same functionality as the api module so that people can use it through the site itself.
