Talk:HSV

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] The acronym HSV is not widely considered to refer to an Australian television station

As a matter of history, HSV previously did not point to the disambiguation page. It pointed to Herpes simplex virus, which had a back-link to the ship with letters HSV-2. I have corrected the situation such that HSV now redirects to Herpes simplex virus, but the virus article contains a link to the disambiguation page. Topics such as HSV-7 Television Station and Holden Special Vehicles are too absolutely irrelevant to warrant a top-level redirect to the disambigation page. Only Hue, Saturation, Value is comparably relevant -- all the other articles are niche-interest, local-interest, etc. ManVhv 23:10, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm sending HSV to point at the disambiguation page. None of the meanings of HSV is overwhelmingly more common than the rest (for instance, the first page of google results hits at least 4 different meanings, and while the search for “hsv+herpes” gets ~700 thousand hits, the search for “hsv+color” gets 20 million, “hsv+airport” gets 500 thousand, etc.). --jacobolus (t) 09:43, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
