:::I don't buy the assertion that we need to leave mergeable turds around because someone could one day come and expand them. If someone does want to do some serious expansion they can easily do so within a section of an existing article and if that becomes outsized for the article a [[WP:SPLIT]] can be performed. |

:::More to the point, a lot of information on the [[Die (integrated circuit)]] topic already seems to exist at [[Wafer (electronics)]]. If there is to be a merge, this may be a better target. Maybe some sloshing between these three articles (and others, I'm sure) would improve organization. ~[[User:Kvng|Kvng]] ([[User talk:Kvng|talk]]) 13:24, 20 July 2017 (UTC) |

:::: The difference between wafers and dice is that wafers are grown and fabricated as such, then [[Wafer dicing|diced]] (another separate article) into [[die (integrated circuit)|dice]] and then packaged. The fabrication and packaging steps are both so big and so important that they can easily support separate articles. |

:::: If you object to this article as a "turd", then the obvious solution is to polish it. It's a well-known subject, there are many sources and many capable editors familiar with this field. You can't claim that it's unimprovable. [[User:Andy Dingley|Andy Dingley]] ([[User talk:Andy Dingley|talk]]) 14:13, 20 July 2017 (UTC) |

Someone tagged Die (integrated circuit) for merger here back in April, but didn't set up any discussion. It's essentially a one paragraph definition, and could easily and profitably be merged here. --Wtshymanski (talk) 01:57, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
