[edit] Name articles

Category:Surnames and Category:Given names shouldn't be flagged as {{hndis}} or put into Category:Lists of ambiguous human names, unless there are multiple people known by just the surname or just the given name. {{surname}} no longer redirects to hndis. See WP:MOSDAB

Restored: Adam (name), Adam (disambiguation), Adolph, Adriano, Agnes (name), Agnes (disambiguation), Aiko, Aimee, Alan, Allan, Allen, Albert, Alejandro, Alexander, Amanda, Amane, Amelia, AMY, Amy, Amy (disambiguation), Andrea, Armistead, Arnold, Aron, Balázs, Beatrice, Bob (disambiguation), Bob, BOB, Jennifer

Discussions: Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages)#Hndis needs its own Manual, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Allen (surname), Talk:Jennifer

Steps:

  1. Edit the WP:MOSDAB#Examples of individual entries that should not be created and replace "In most cases, do not list names of which Title is a part, unless the persons are very frequently referred to simply by their first or last name (e.g. Galileo, Shakespeare)." with "For places or names of which Title is a part, list them in a "See also" section unless the subject is very frequently referred to simply by the single name (e.g. Galileo, Shakespeare, New York)." or similar, so that other editors don't fall into the same usage vs. specification conflict. Done.
  2. If the Title is already a disambiguation page, move the list of people to a "Title (surname)" page, so on Patton, for example, George S. Patton (often referred to as just "Patton") and the places and things would remain on the base page along with a Patton (surname) link, which would list people with the last name who aren't commonly known by just it.
  3. Create a new template for the Surname disambiguations, that would be more applicable (surnames don't "pages that might otherwise share the same title") so that they would be in Category: Surnames instead of Category: Lists of ambiguous human names, to distinguish the disambiguation of "Smith" from the disambiguation of "John Smith". Done.

[edit] Other disambiguations

WP:D#Disambiguation pages now agrees (more) with WP:MOSDAB#Individual entries.

Tip of the day...


What writing style to use

Wikipedia articles are formatted according to the Manual of Style. It sets standards for attributes like link formatting (list external links in their own section at the bottom of an article), capitalization (do not capitalize all words in section headings), punctuation (remember the serial comma), sections (an informative lead section is important), and many other stylistic details. There are separate guidelines for biographies, citations, titles, dates and numbers, and proper names. The naming conventions set standards for titling articles, such as do not capitalize all words and use the singular form wherever possible. You don't have to use all these rules and recommendations when you update an article, but please do not be alarmed if others edit your writing accordingly.
