Talk:U Know

Redirect

I redirected this disambiguation page to Yunho because that was the only entry in the list that actually had an article. After it was reverted, I suggested that a discussion should take place on the talk page if there is still a disagreement over this. Instead of doing so, it keeps getting re-reverted with edit summaries that seems to smell of WP:ILIKEIT.

Well, actually, to be fair, one of the edit summaries argues that there are "multiple valid entries". If there are, then why don't said entries have articles? Erpert ^{blah, blah, blah...} 23:27, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, each of the entries is a valid entry for disambiguation. A disambiguation page is necessary. If you think there is a primary topic, then propose moving this to U Know (disambiguation). older ≠ wiser 23:34, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I should make a proposal for your point? Anyway, WP:DISAMBIG does not state that the disambiguation pages can consist of one actual article and then literally nothing but a list of non-article similar subjects. Erpert ^{blah, blah, blah...} 02:26, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, it actually does state that. See the section Wikipedia:Disambiguation § Primary topic when a disambiguation page lists only one existing article by that name. jlwoodwa (talk) 03:25, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

BTW, you could at least wait until this discussion is over before re-reverting. Edit-warring is not a wise idea. Erpert ^{blah, blah, blah...} 02:28, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

on the contrary, WP:Disambiguation does indeed call for disambiguation when there are multiple topics that have the same or very similar names. It is not a requirement that each entry have its own article. And I'd say it's you that needs to obtain consensus rather than removing valid content. Multiple editors have indicated there is no primary topic for this. older ≠ wiser 03:03, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(←) WP:PRIMARYRED states: "If the article with the blue link is the primary topic, it should be the primary landing page (possibly via a WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT). The disambiguation page should be at a page with the (disambiguation) qualifier." That proves my point; and that the disambiguation page the way you seem to prefer it should be at a separate disambig page.

Anything else? Erpert ^{blah, blah, blah...} 05:48, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That holds only if the article with the blue link is the primary topic. The existing article is not automatically the primary topic, so this needs to be established. jlwoodwa (talk) 06:31, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that is precisely my point. You have been unilaterally overwriting the disambiguation page presuming there is a primary topic despite indications from multiple editors that there isn't. older ≠ wiser 10:16, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
