This page should be retitled "James Whitcomb Riley (poet)" to avoid linking confusion with "James Whitcomb Riley (passenger train)," and a disambiguation page should be created. —the preceding unsigned comment is by 68.88.233.11 (talk • contribs) 17:39, December 11, 2004

No, since the train is named for Riley, there should be no disambiguation needed. That would be like having to rename George Washington to George Washington (United States President) so people don't get confusted with George Washington University. --rogerd 01:23, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

It seems this page has been vandalized. I deleted a sentence that read "Many of his phrases are present in 'yer mom's' reading of his poetry," or somesuch. I think the image has been vandalized, as well. User: GreeneC'06
