Verbosity

Kinda wordy for a disambiguation page, isn't it? --Lkseitz (talk) 04:37, 19 November 2014 (PST)

  • Well, you know, sometimes it seems, to me, that if you can describe the basic facts about the entries in one place, then maybe it will save someone a click that would otherwise be needed to really know which of them is relevant to their search. I don't know if it causes us any problems, as long as it all fits into a neat paragraph-sized bunch on one page. I can see if we were asking people to scroll through long descriptions that would be a problem. And, I suppose, I can see that repeating information in two (or more) places could lead to coordination errors in case there are corrections or updates. I'm not averse to tightening up the prose, but I hope to preserve enough here to obviate the likely causes of ambiguity, rather than to rely on people clicking through before they can be sure. Naturally I'm not consistent on this guideline. I'm not a firm believer in consistency for its own sake. It certainly can be helpful, but until we've seen the range of situations, trying to dictate consistent responses might prejudice us from finding better approaches to solving them individually. My feeling, though, is that, ultimately, everything is fixable. Our biggest problem isn't where we've done it wrong, it's where we haven't done anything at all. --Dystopos (talk) 09:00, 19 November 2014 (PST)
    • LOL, but point taken. However, remembering to update a disambiguation page if basic facts are corrected is a problem. --Lkseitz (talk) 04:33, 20 November 2014 (PST)

Windsor Court

The Red Mountain Railroad page mentions "a station on Warwick Court near the the top of the mountain". Should this page say "Warwick Court" instead of "Windsor Court"? I can't find any mention of a Windsor Court near this location on the oldest street maps I have consulted. --Mark Taylor (talk) 15:07, 28 January 2024 (CST)

  • I think you're right. --Dystopos (talk) 09:00, 29 January 2024 (CST)
