| If it is a planet (as in [[Logopolis]]), or similar, then the story should take the main use. At the very least, it should be a disambig page - and not to the planet page.

| ==Unnecessary Disambiguation Pages==
| |
| I've been going through the articles and I've come to the conclusion that some of the disambiguation pages are unnecessary. These are mainly the ones that have only two articles linked (admittedly, in some cases these are needed). If there are only two, then all that is needed is to put a link at the top of the article pointing to the other page of the similiar name (see [[Quinn]], [[The Beast]] and [[Think Tank]] for examples of this).
| |
|
| |
| Here are some of the unnecessary disambiguation pages of this kind that I have found:
| |
|
| |
| *[[Air lock (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Arc of Infinity]]
| |
| *[[Cassandra (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Castrovalva]]
| |
| *[[Empty Child]]
| |
| *[[Family of Blood]]
| |
| *[[Kroton (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Logopolis]]
| |
| *[[Matrix (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Reset]]
| |
| *[[Space pirate (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[The Daleks (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Time machine (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Trion (disambiguation)]]
| |
|
| |
| Another problem I have with the Disambiguation pages is the number of them that have "(disambiguation)" after them (again, I admit that these are sometimes necessary). Here are some that I think don't need it:
| |
|
| |
| *[[Bad Wolf (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Baker (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Beyond the Sun (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Black Orchid (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Charon (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Crane (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Cyberman (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Davis (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Dr. Who (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Dawn of Time (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Miranda (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Solar system (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Time Meddler (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Toby (disambiguation)]]
| |
| *[[Twilight of the Gods (disambiguation)]]
| |
|
| |
| I have some ideas on what times the exceptions should be made, but I'm not entirely sure how I can put it into words. I'm sure something can be worked out. [[User:Doug86|Doug86]] 07:41, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
