[edit] Shouldn't this go to the ice cream flavor?

I think this should be about the ice cream flavor, instead of some obscure book. --71.70.221.221 16:24, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Good point - I added a link to redirect people looking for the ice cream flavor.--Kubigula (talk) 16:33, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

As I think about this a bit more, I think that this shouldn't be the default article for "Rocky Road". I suspect most people looking for rocky road are looking for the ice cream flavor, so perhaps that should be the redirect, with an {{otheruses}} tag to a disambiguation page. This article should probably be moved to Rocky Road (book). Any comments?--Kubigula (talk) 16:42, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

I stand (self) corrected. "Rocky road" is already a redirect page to the ice cream flavor. Checking "what links here" for this article results in most links being intended for a TV show article that doesn't exist. So, unless I hear objections, I will be bold and move this to Rocky Road (novel), create a stub on the TV show and create a dab page to address the confusion.--Kubigula (talk) 23:11, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
As I started to do all this, I decided maybe I shouldn't fix it what isn't that clearly broken. The current scheme is OK, and I don't think I have enough interest to do even a stub on an 80s TBS TV show. I'm also not sure there is really enough confusion to necessitate a disambiguation page. I leave the suggestions above in case anyone else thinks it needs doing.--Kubigula (talk) 05:45, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
