:Wow, good work, Dawn. I tried to clarify the difference between "creating" the disamb page and what goes into the page. You need a link to the page to "create" it. Unfortunatley, most people are going to find themselves in this position when they go to the [[Books]] page and see a book already exists with that title. I think we have to start from the very beginning and really go step by step. It is still confusing (or daunting), but I think you have made this pretty clear. Maybe someone else can comment on this. --[[User:Kay T|Kay T]] 14:10, 1 September 2007 (PDT) | :Wow, good work, Dawn.

| + | ::Thanks KayT. I think you did a good job at clarifying. My only note would be usually the page that is to become the disambugation page is already created. Because it is the naked title which is someone's usual first attempt at adding a book of that title. So to me, adding the extra info on the [[Books]] page isn't creating the to-become-Disambugation page, it's creating the page(s) that you'll be transferring info to. --[[User:DawnBurn|DawnBurn]] 01:26, 3 September 2007 (PDT) | ||

This was created to hopefully allow other readers/wiki'ers to create pages. I made it a Help file instead of in the main, but I think all the help files are in the main. Feedback welcome. I'm going to try to figure out if I can create templates for the Disamb. page and/or the visual flags that Wiki uses for the fixing old links instead of the Category addition. But I'm not sure where that will go. --DawnBurn 15:48, 31 August 2007 (PDT)
