Okay, uh, who wrote the first bulleted off item? I did the rest of the page, but that one I didn't do, and it's creeping me out a little. Please identify yourself.

Never mind, it's fixed.

[edit] Things that don't belong here

As per Wikipedia:disambiguation disambiguation articles are for disambiguating amongst articles that would otherwise share the same title. To quote:

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. Shakespeare, Galileo).

These entries have been removed because they do not belong here. The encyclopaedia articles on these subjects would not have the title Alicia (but would have the titles that they actually do have). Uncle G 17:58, 2005 Jun 5 (UTC)

This situation is similar to that of a redirect. From Wikipedia:Redirect:
Someone finds them useful. Hint: If someone says they find a redirect useful, they probably do. You might not find it useful — this is not because the other person is a liar, but because you browse Wikipedia in different ways.
You might not find the stuff in this article useful, but you do not know others' browsing habits. Now, Alicia could redirect straight to an article, but there are multiple famous people/things named Alicia. That is why it has to be a disambiguation page, and that is why this stuff in the article has to be kept. —Lowellian (talk) 01:35, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)
I have serious doubts whether an Alicia is famous if her last name is not remembered. mikka (t) 01:40, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
