Merging medal pages

So, based on the amount of medals we've had lately that all use the exact same models (such as the ones added today, which all use the exact same models as the last set of UGC medals), I've been thinking it would be a good idea to merge pages for medals that use the same models, especially considering that most of the page content only differs in season, infobox image, and release dates/update histories. I've come up with two ways to merge them, but I thought it would be a good idea to get some opinions on this before anything gets done. The ways I've thought of are this:

  1. Merge all pages for medals with the same models, regardless of tournament type. This would reduce the amount of pages by the largest amount, though it could get confusing for different tournament types.
  2. Merge all pages for medals of the same tournament with the same models. So, for instance, the UGC Highlander season 12/13/14 medals would be one page, the UGC 6v6 season 14/15/16 medals would have another page, and UGC 4v4 season 1/2/3 medals would have another page. This would somewhat increase the page amount over the other option, but it would be less confusing as we would split each tournament type into a separate page.

I feel like the second option is the better one, but I'm not sure what we would do about naming pages when there are different models for the same tournament type (which I believe is mainly an issue with the ETF2L/UGC medals). I feel like there would be a few cases where it would be better to simply merge all the pages, such as the RETF2 EE22 medals and maybe the Gamers Assembly medals. Any opinions on any of this would be good. --Omolong (talk) 16:29, 18 March 2015 (PDT)

Or merge all UGC HL (s12/13/14) + 6v6 (s14/15/16) + 4v4 (s1/2/3) in one page and add list of medals. Title: Tournament Medal - UGC 2014 or else.
HL 6v6 4v4
  • S14 (9/2014 - 1/2015)
  • S13 (5/2014 - 9/2014)
  • S12 (1/2014 - 5/2014)
  • S16 (9/2014 - 1/2015)
  • S15 (5/2014 - 9/2014)
  • S14 (1/2014 - 5/2014)
  • S3 (9/2014 - 1/2015)
  • S2 (5/2014 - 9/2014)
  • S1 (1/2013 - 5/2014)
