Talk:Lemon (disambiguation)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is from the "The Market for Lemons" page:
"The term "lemon," meaning a defective (typically used) car, did not enter the language of economics as a result of this paper. Instead, it came from the famous "Lemon" Volkswagen advertisement of the 1960s."
Which is correct?

Well, it doesn't look good when one page links to another that contradicts it. I'll remove the "entered the language" part but keep the link to the article.

I've heard that a lemon is also a Russian term for a million dollars. Is this true? And if it is, does it merit mention on this page? --137.122.200.45 (talk) 16:16, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Edits made Mar 18 2008
Performed disambiguation clean-up as per MOS:DAB
- Added Wiktionary link
- Removed links to 2 songs titled "Lemon Tree"; there are already links to them on the Lemon Tree dab page
- Also moved link for Lemon Myrtle to the Lemon Tree dab page since it seemed more logical
- Created Lemon (surname) page and moved people with the name "Lemon" to that page.
- Added links to Lemon (surname) and Lemon Tree to "See also" section.
- Removed "See also The Market for Lemons" from the entry for lemon (automobile). The "Market" link is mentioned on lemon (automobile)
- Also removed the following for they do not belong on a "Lemon" disambiguation page. These are topics which include the word "lemon", but are not senses of of the word "lemon" that correspond to encyclopedic topics whose articles could logically be titled simply "Lemon":
- lemon battery, is a battery made using a lemon.
- Lemon Demon, Neil Cicierega's internet band.
- Salts of Lemon, a bleaching agent made from Potassium oxalate (and the links were both red anyway...)
