Filipinos → Filipinos (snack food) — The term "Filipino" has been used to refer to Filipino people for many years, and the snack has existed for only several. This page existed as a disambiguation page before another editor moved the page to the snack food without a survey or discussion. I believe it's only fair to have this as a disambiguation page as I do not see how a group of snacks that have existed for several years are more notable than a group of people who have existed for much longer.--Folksong 09:12, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Support see my first set of comments on this talk page [1], although it may be more precise to use something like Filipinos (biscuit) or (brand) instead of the less specific (snack food) which could be confusing Zedla 12:56, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Discussion

Filipino people continues to be disambiguated at the top of the article, and while Filipino may have disambig to the snack, Filipinos never did before. I'm open to discussion about the controversy. Zedla 09:24, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
