Might need merging change

I only really made this article to split content out of Property. I have no idea what the difference between this is and Physical property. Maybe this could be merged into that. Or maybe it could be like en:Property (philosophy) with a little tweaking?

If somebody smart wants to fix it, that'd be great. Or just tell me what I need to do.

The relevant pages are listed at Property (disambiguation). Osiris (talk) 03:50, 6 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

I am not that qualified myself, but I believe Material property is a subset of Physical property. Chenzw  Talk  03:57, 6 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
Oh that would make sense. I'm assuming "material" doesn't include intangible stuff like fire or electricity but physics does... Enough difference for an article or do you think merge them? Osiris (talk) 04:06, 6 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
In En, this title redirects to a huge en:List of material properties. So I think it is a more general term than either chemical or physical property. This page is also a bit like a list, and I think it is OK as it is. It is not a problem or a high priority. Property (philosophy) is a whole different ball game, and would require reading in the philosophy literature before starting on it. Macdonald-ross (talk) 09:44, 6 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
