Östrum

Uanfala, I removed the German village after adding Ostrum in the "See also" section which contains other titles with that spelling. I don't think it belongs in the list, that is unless the three very short dabs Ostrom, Ostrum and Oestrum are combined. MB 23:18, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

Oh that! I thought it was an error. Ö can be rendered as oe, that's a really standard thing: there even was a bot back in the day creating redirects with oe for each title with ö. The oe spelling for this village in particular is also attested in English sources (see RfD). – Uanfala (talk) 23:29, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

Uanfala, so do you agree with removing it in lieu of the Ostrum in See also, or are you saying there is a good enough reason to keep it in both dabs? MB 00:29, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

Östrum should be listed in Ostrum because terms differing only by diacritics are normally combined on the same dab page, and Östrum should be listed at Oestrum because it's sometimes referred to as "Oestrum". – Uanfala (talk) 11:18, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
