Duplicate of librettist Arthur J. Jackson

Post by JamesBrigham »

I've learnt information about Arthur J. Jackson who contributed lyrics to a few Gershwin compositions from the musical La La Lucille before dying in 1922 aged 29.
I added this new information to his entry here: https://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Jackson,_Arthur
This included his birth and death dates, nationality (he was born and died in the USA so assume he is a US citizen) and also included the photo of him from his obituary.
In the interest of transparency, below are links to the sites where I took this information:

https://peoplelegacy.com/arthur_james_jackson-634X59

Gravestone information:
https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/204 ... es-jackson

Obituary in the Jewish Criterion Vol. 58 No. 16, p.14
https://digitalcollections.library.cmu.edu/node/24688

Article on Wordpress with more biographical information:
https://gershwin100.wordpress.com/2022/ ... she-means/

BUT now I realise he has 2 entries on the IMSLP site as this category is also him: https://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Jackson,_Arthur_J.

How can these two entries be merged, please?
