[edit] Noteworthiness

I really don't know how you, Tedernst, decide what is worthy of inclusion. I'm fairly new to Wikipedia, so maybe you can teach me something about policies. Are you saying that there must already be an article in existence on something in order for something to be included on a disamibiguation page?

MoS:DP#Individual entries talks about redlinks. Sometimes there are redlinks that are obviously noteable to all. Those stay. When something doesn't seem noteable to me, I remove it, not because I'm the last word, or some kind of authority, but because most often I'm right and the other editor leaves it alone. If I'm wrong, which I seem to be in this case, then the other editor challenges me and then writes the article. Great! So now we've collectively made a better encyclopedia. Thanks for being here!

Thanks, that was a good page—I've bookmarked it. Appreciate the guidance. Unschool 12:32, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

Well, I'd be happy to write the article. But not tonight. The redlink will have to do for now. Unschool 03:58, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

By the way, I'm not saying that there shouldn't be standards of worthiness. I'll be the first to admit that I question much of what I see included in Wikipedia. I'm just asking how such standards are determined. Unschool 04:00, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
