Still no.

The Demonic Statue is not going to be merged with the Ten-Tails article, because throughout the entire series it has served as a completely different function than the demon it came from. That would be like saying "The tailed beasts are just names given to the Ten-Tails chakra, they should be merged back." And before you piss on that with "different characters and souls and blah blah", it still proves my point; it served an entirely different function.

The Shinju is the Holy Tree, which is part of the incarnation known as the Ten-Tails. The reason I am against seperating them is because the Shinju article would literally just be the first paragraph in the Background section of it's article. There is little reason to separate them when the article will just be a stub. Basically it is the opposite of the madness of your original desire of jamming 3 articles into one. And no there is nothing you can say to deny that, because the entirety of the Shinju has only been explanations of what happened years and years ago. You'd be more useful if you simply said "Rename "Shinju" to "Ten-Tails" if that is irritating you so godsdamned much.

I know you get a tingle in your strange at the thought of merging everything into Kaguya's article, but from an organizational standpoint, there is absolutely no reason to do so. As I keep stating, over and over and over again, the information as we present is is not wrong. It is presented in a way that makes it easier for the average user to understand. For the majority of the story, and hell for just about everyone not named Kaguya the three (Demonic Statue, Ten-Tails, Kaguya herself) were referred to as three separate things, and is organized as such.

So in conclusion, no. The Ten-Tails and the Shinju will not be separated, as that serves literally no point when the resulting page will just be a single paragraph from the current Shinju page. I am more willing to rename the Shinju back to Ten-Tails, however as the Shinju is already just a footnote in the Ten-Tails history anyway. The Demonic Statue will not be deleted and merged into the Ten-Tails article because it existed as an entirely separate entity for the entirety of the manga.
