Two article disambiguation pages.
I had two disambiguation pages speedy-deleted when I was following the rule "Even if there are only two articles, if you can't decide which is more important, you should make a disambig page and redirect to it." I think that is a good guideline, but if that is not how things are actually done the guideline should be changed. Should two-article disambiguation pages be forbidden? - Starfield 14:36, 6 September 2009 (EDT)
- From what I understand, the reason we've avoided them is because there's no point. If you arrive at the wrong article, it should always have a disambig tag to direct you to the other one. Thus, it's the same amount of clicks regardless.--RosicrucianTalk 14:39, 6 September 2009 (EDT)
- And the other issue is that you made these disambig pages and changed the redirects without fixing pages that used the redirects. So now there's a bunch of pages that link to a disambig page rather than the proper article as a result.--RosicrucianTalk 14:42, 6 September 2009 (EDT)
