[edit] About disambiguation pages
The point of a disambiguation page is not to list every possible definition or use of a particular word in the English language; disambiguation pages are meant to assist a Wikipedia user in finding an existing page whose topic is (or could be) the actual word used in their search query.
Before adding a topic to this page, ask yourself:
- If you were looking for this topic on Wikipedia, would I simply and only type the word "shadow" as my search word?
- Are there people who might simply refer to your topic by only using the word "shadow"?
Please see Wikipedia:Disambiguation and Wikipedia:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages) for more info.
[edit] Edits to page on Mar 30, 2008
Having said that, these are the edits I made to this page:
- Removed any red-links or references to topics which lack coverage elsewhere in Wikipedia; left a couple which could perhaps be expanded at a future date.
- Removed link to Anino, which was added due to the fact that it is also the tagalog word for "shadow". See: Wikipedia:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages)#Foreign languages.
- Removed MANY entries due to the fact that they are topics which simply include the word "shadow", for example: Shadow government, Shadow Hand etc... It is doubtful that a person would simply type "shadow" in an attempt to find a page of one of these specific topics
- I have however left links such as Acoustic shadow, Dodge Shadow and Shadow Racing Cars on this page, because these things can be referred to by some as simply "shadow" or "the Shadow", particularily by industry insiders.
- Moved link to SHADO to "See also" section
- Split shadowing from this page. There was a link to Dichotic listening prior to my edits, and although "shadowing" may be a component of the topic, Dichotic listening in itself is not "shadowing" and so I've just removed it entirely
Certainly if anyone disagrees with anything I've removed they can feel free to place them back on this page. Marchije (talk) 16:37, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
