I just came upon the articles [[Dark]] and [[The Dark]]. I haven't read either of the novels these come from, but based on the articles it seems to me that the use of "The" isn't sufficient to disambiguate the two; in fact, it seems like both subjects are referred to as "the Dark". I think the articles should probably be moved to [[Dark (Fear of the Dark)]] and [[Dark (The Twilight Streets)]]. I can do the move and fix the links, but before I did I wanted to make sure that nobody objects (particularly since I haven't read the source material). —[[User:Josiah Rowe|Josiah Rowe]] <sup>[[User talk:Josiah Rowe|talk to me]]</sup> 06:44, May 13, 2012 (UTC) | I just came upon the articles [[Dark]] and [[The Dark]].

I just came upon the articles Dark and The Dark. I haven't read either of the novels these come from, but based on the articles it seems to me that the use of "The" isn't sufficient to disambiguate the two; in fact, it seems like both subjects are referred to as "the Dark". I think the articles should probably be moved to the Dark (Fear of the Dark) and the Dark (The Twilight Streets). I can do the move and fix the links, but before I did I wanted to make sure that nobody objects (particularly since I haven't read the source material). —Josiah Rowe talk to me 06:44, May 13, 2012 (UTC)

Archivist's notes[[edit source]]
Since the work has been done, the need for this thread is now obviated. Seems a perfectly ordinary application of dab terms.
