Pages moved to user space

Earlier today, 3 people on the XA Discord #wiki channel called for 23 of the skip fretting pages which didn't have enough content to be in main space to be either moved to user space, merged, or deleted, so I moved them to user space.

(I also accidentally moved 2 other ones in error which have now been restored to main space.)

However a few hours later, a different person in #wiki argued that the 23 pages should be reinstated to main space.

I have created a public thread in #wiki and @ mentioned all four of those people in the thread. In 24 hours from now, I will check that thread and whatever they have decided, I will implement - whether that is restoring the pages to main space as they were before, merging them into a single page in main space, or keeping them in user space as they are now.

I am recording all these happenings on this talk page in case anyone who isn't on Discord is confused about what's going on and why.

Fredg999 suggested merging short skip fretting pages into the relevant EDO pages.
Fredg's suggestion was much more popular than any other proposal. In a poll in the #wiki channel, it received 10 votes while no other option received more than 5 votes. (Each voter was allowed to vote for more than one option to prevent the spoiler effect.)
The only other option that got a decent number of votes (5) was merging all the the short skip fretting pages into one big page in user space.
Still, Fredg's suggestion won out by a big margin, so for now I will begin implementing that. If the community comes to a consensus on something else, I'll change direction and do that instead, but for now I'll merge the pages into their relevant EDO page.
Do note that I'm only doing this with the short skip fretting pages. I'm leaving the longer more detailed ones as separate pages in main space since this poll and discussion were not about those - only about the short ones.
