[edit] No article on Phoebe Snow (singer)

I worked on fixing some double redirects, and so I started untangling the Pheobe Snow redirects, and it appears I goofed.

I redirected Phoebe Laub to Pheobe Snow, but Phoebe Snow is an article about someone else.

There is a page, Phoebe Snow (singer), but that is nothing more than a redirect.

I temporarily pointed Phoebe Snow (singer) to Phoebe Snow (album), but I think it would be much better if someone would make a stub for Phoebe Snow (singer), and then the redirects that currently point to the album could point to the singer instead.

[edit] Proposal to address the "Phoebe Snow" situation

I really "stepped in it" when I started fixing some double redirects involving the singer, Phoebe Snow. One of my edits caused a link to point to the "Phoebe Snow" article, which has nothing to do with the singer. Thanks, User:Sysin, for fixing that mistake. Feeling bad about having made the mistake, I checked carefully all the other links to the Phoebe Snow passenger train article, and found a few that clearly were intended to point to the singer, and so I corrected those as well. Now all the links about either the singer or her album point to the Phoebe Snow (album) article.

I am proposing that this article be split in two: one for the album and the other for the singer, replacing the existing redirect. Then, a disambiguation page, Phoebe Snow (disambiguation) needs to be created with three entries: one for the album, one for the singer, and one for the passenger train. Then the Phoebe Snow article, about the passenger train, needs to have an {{otheruses1|the passenger train}} eye-catcher placed at the top that directs interested users to the disambiguation page.
