sorry that merge didn’t work as expected for Boyd Lake State Park. i thought that if you kept the name and boundaries of the polygon place when you merged then everything from the polygon place would be kept, but it sounds like that is not true. so waiting for a curator to help would be the best / only option then in your situation.
just for reference, i pulled the numeric place ids for most of the places from your list (see below), since the numeric ids might be easier to differentiate than the place names. it also reveals the relative sequence in which the different places were created. (Note that Navajo State Park is odd because there is no duplicate on that exact name, though there is a Navajo Lake State Park place in Colorado. It’s odd because a web search seems to show that the only park named Navajo Lake is across the border in New Mexico.)
