OK, I deliberately chose a provocative title. But the issue I want to raise is this: should we merge this site with Christianity SE?
Of course, there are strong arguments for a separate site. But I'm looking purely at the numbers:
On the Christianity site, I expressed my concern that it would fail (and discussed the issue of number of visitors).
So, purely looking at the numbers, should we merge these sites? Or is it perhaps too early to be concerned at the numbers?
Update: reflecting on this, perhaps the split in itself is not the problem but the timing. That is, we have two new sites starting at more or less the same time with a similar audience / contents. Perhaps we should merge, and then only consider a split when the new site is a success?
