[edit] Disambiguation?

There are at least three Afognaks now: Afognak the island, Afognak, Alaska, the former village located on the island, and Native Village of Afognak, the federally recognized tribe of Alutiiqs descended from the inhabitants of Afognak. It seems wise to me to change this page's name (i.e., to move it) to "Afognak Island" and use the page called Afognak as a disambiguation page pointing to the three (so far) Afognak-related pages. I'm seeking consensus if there are other editors for whom this is an issue, pro or con. Thanks. --Yksin 21:24, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Typical Wikipedia practice in this situation is to put the most general article under the primary name, and then write a disambiguation page. I'll write that now. -Harmil 02:22, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, that works great. Good to know the best practice in this regard. --Yksin 16:16, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
