Talk:Precipitation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I question the choice of using a standard disambiguation page, rather than what I would think is more appropriate, where precipitation is the meteorological meaning and contains a link to precipitation (chemistry). The vast majority of links to precipitation are going to be for the meteorological meaning IMHO, at least from what I can see from using the "What links here". Unless someone objects, I will consider making this change in a few days or so. RedWolf 03:56, Mar 26, 2004 (UTC)

You're dead right about most of the links going to the weather article. I'm disambiguating ppt at the moment, don't let it put your plan though. T 23:52, 27 Mar 2004 (UTC)

See also my response on the Village pump which is the proper forum for issues like this. --Phil | Talk 12:27, Mar 29, 2004 (UTC)

I did post it on the Village Pump but the topic has already been archived (but I did find your reply). My suggested change is one of the standard disambiguation options. It most cases, the current method selected in having a standard disambiguation page works fine for me. In this case, however, I think one of the other options (as pointed out above) is more suitable IMHO. Since the chemistry definition is relatively obscure (to most people I think), I think the most well known definition should be "front and center". Look at London for example.

Ha! Found this after I had mostly replaced all the links with the disambig precipitation (meteorology), oh well. Bob Palin 06:03, 4 Apr 2004 (UTC}
