Disamg for one entry

[edit]

Regarding this revert, the only entry on this page is Electromagnetism. Everything else is just a huge see also section, and if those see also's were considered entries they would volatile WP:PTM. Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 11:08, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think they'd all violate WP:PTM. These are specialised things that wouldn't be found under, say, Electromagnetic or Pulse (disambiguation). Might be worth putting them in proper groupings, though. Done Ms7821 (talk) 11:30, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Bkonrad has added a comment saying "many (mostly) unambiguous partial title matches; perhaps this should be a broad concept overview rather than a disambiguation". I'm inclined to agree - this isn't really a disambiguation page. I do think redirecting people looking for electromagnetic to electromagnetism is unhelpful.

This is much more of an Outline of Electromagnetism that needs heavy cleanup, then it is a disambig page, and I don't see how a real disambag could be salvaged from this page. Unless someone has comes up with a better idea, I think this ought to be renamed, and then (hopefully) cleaned up. I don't understand why you "think redirecting people looking for electromagnetic to electromagnetism is unhelpful". Of coerce "barely any of these topics are covered on the electromagnetism page", the Electromagnetism article covers electromagnetism (or if you prefer "electromagnetic stuff") in general. "Electromagnetic" is simply the adjective form of "Electromagnetism". Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk)
