You merge pages by adding relevant content from the page you're "getting rid" of to the page you're keeping, then you change the page you're not keeping to a redirect to the page that you are keeping. (If the page history of this page is important to keep for attribution purposes for content that could be added to Obsidian, then this page would need to be kept as a redirect for that reason, but as far as utility as an actual redirect, it doesn't make sense, so if the community doesn't care about attribution then a deletion would be needed, which does require sysop userrights.)

TL;DR: Merging doesn't inherently require an admin (any old user can do it, but the user should really get consensus like the consensus in this comment chain), but merging might require an admin in this instance if the page is deleted instead of just redirected (which really only would be desired here if deemed necessary to be able to link back to credit for any moved-over content via the history of this page).
