What's also interesting to note is that Wikipedia disambiguations pages are not titled "name (disambiguation)". Seems like its not really needed to them however.

:Actually I kinda take that back, some of them would have that title but I don't know if its the true correct way. [[User:Dots|<font color="red">Do</font>]][[User talk:Dots|<font color="blue">t</font><font color="purple">s</font>]] [[File:MewtwoMS.png]] The Star Fox 09:48, 25 June 2013 (EDT)

(disambiguation)

This wiki is extremely inconsistent. Some pages have (disambiguation) tacked on the end, while others don't. What do you think we should do? Air Conditioner AC.png Now with ROLLBACK! 19:09, 19 September 2012 (EDT)

Before anyone does something else, I just want to clarify that you're supposed to comment under the thing you support. Air Conditioner AC.png Now with ROLLBACK! 19:25, 19 September 2012 (EDT)
Bump. Air Conditioner AC.png It's getting better all the time! 21:03, 22 September 2012 (EDT)
If I don't have any votes to the contrary by tomorrow, I'm going ahead with moving everything. Air Conditioner AC.png -.-- -.-- --..! 19:12, 25 September 2012 (EDT)
More discussion is needed, so bump again. Air Conditioner AC.png I am the air con. 16:48, 24 October 2012 (EDT)
If I don't see a strong argument from the "Keep it as is" people/refutation of my argument, I'm going ahead with moving everything tomorrow. Air Conditioner AC.png The wiki's OTHER penguin 16:37, 7 November 2012 (EST)

We have three options. Discuss.

Keep it as is

Just because it's inconsistent doesn't mean it's a problem. Toomai Glittershine ??? The Undirigible 19:16, 25 September 2012 (EDT)
Granted, it's not a big problem, and it will never have high priority on the wiki, but inconsistency is still something we might want to take care of. Air Conditioner AC.png Come together! 18:12, 16 October 2012 (EDT)
There is no problem with the disambiguations. Dots The Cute Asian NintenNESsprite.png 18:18, 16 October 2012 (EDT)
Well, it's inconsistent. Inconsistency is confusing. There's a reason why other wikis do it with Example (disambiguation). Air Conditioner AC.png Come together! 19:18, 16 October 2012 (EDT)
Well true that it is inconsistent. What else can we do? Dots The Cute Asian NintenNESsprite.png 19:27, 16 October 2012 (EDT)
You could... read the options I've provided down there↓? Air Conditioner AC.png Come together! 19:31, 16 October 2012 (EDT)
  • For. Probably really late, but the disambiguation tag is redundant in many cases. Where it is not needed, it should not be. - Ceci n’est pas un Smiddle. 12:56, 20 June 2013 (EDT)

What's also interesting to note is that Wikipedia disambiguations pages are not titled "name (disambiguation)". Seems like its not really needed to them however. Dots MewtwoMS.png The Smiley 11:58, 24 June 2013 (EDT)

Move everything to Example (disambiguation)

I support this option, as it will make it clearer to anyone who isn't sure. It sounds like nobody could possibly not be sure, but there are a lot of idiots in the world. Air Conditioner AC.png Now with ROLLBACK! 19:09, 19 September 2012 (EDT)
Other wikis do it this way with reason, the specifics are more useful for users. Toast Wii U Logo Transparent.pngltimatumTransparent Swadloon.png 19:11, 19 September 2012 (EDT)
Support Per AirCon. lol to his last point. --RoyboyX Talk 19:17, 19 September 2012 (EDT)
I support this option. I think it is awesome enough. The Awesome 20:20, 19 September 2012 (EDT)
Support for the sake of organization. --Havoc48 >:D!!! 21:10, 16 October 2012 (EDT)

Get rid of the (disambiguation)s
