[edit] Move to Schnorrer
There is only one other link with a similar name, and that is Karl Schnörrer; a disambiguation page would require more than two articles, though: It suffices to say that Schnorrer is a Yiddish term used in other languages as well, while saying "for a similar spelling see Karl Schnörrer" --FlammingoHey 19:58, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
The first line "For the WWII ace pilot, see Karl Schnörrer" caused a long debate over its pages in May 2004. In its wake there were several polls about including him or variations to do so, the "prominent disambiguation" (that very same line) reached a majority of 9 versus 6; no neutrals. The opposition argued it should not be mentioned at all in Schnorrer, as proposed in the previous poll (no mention at all: 8 pro, 7 contra).
- WP:D clearly says that
- the most obvious idea of a lemma is the article (Alexander the Great)
- the same word may be used in another context (Alexander the Great (1956film)), it may use a Top Link
- Lists like a disambiguation page must list more than two items.
I conclude that per majority decision, and to avoid revert warring, the Schnörrer should be in top link. Note that there were ambiguous participants like the now indefinetly blocked (by Jimbo) notorious vandal User:Wik. The edit history from 24 October 2005 until 8 March 2007 is here because of this unexplained and unrequested move in the heat of a revert war. The content had only been changed slightly (two sentences added, 3 grammar, 1cat.) Unfortunatly because of this move, WP:MOVE would be violated, so there should at least be a hint in the history page to that half year. --FlammingoHey 23:45, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
- Support - the top link would do the job. Seeing as his name is Schnörrer not Schnorrer, I don't think there should be any problem. Don't German ös become oes when umlats are undesireable or not possible to type? Jimp 01:32, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
- PAGE MOVED per discussion above. I sent the talk page that was already here to /Archive 1, and the article history that was previously here is deleted, as it contained no contribution history that's missing from the current version; just a bit of edit warring. Please let me know if there are any questions. -GTBacchus(talk) 02:36, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
- Hi Jimp, yes, they do - Schnoerrer now redirects to Karl.--FlammingoHey 13:36, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
