Definition that doesn't belong on DAB page[edit]

I removed the following (VERBATIM) from the dab page. I noticed that it contained no links. If it is legitimate it should be spun into a separate article and linked to on the dab page. If it is already an article, a link and single-sentence description would be sufficient.

Hydra - A little know cell group. Currently under the leadership of one JC 'Hydra'. Whenever a leader dies two new ones take his place, movement is based on the Mythical Hydra who grew two heads everytime one was removed.

In any event, an unlinked definition that does not belong on a dab page. (See disambiguation pages for more info.)

Requested move[edit]

Hydra (disambiguation) → Hydra — no recognized primary topic; new stub at Hydra was the same topic as Hydra, Saronic Islands (and is now a redirect until this gets fixed). JHunterJ 11:50, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The following is a closed discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was speedy moved as uncontroversial; the disambiguation page had been at Hydra until today and was moved without discussion and without and good basis. If anyone thinks there is a basis for the island being at Hydra, please propose that move for discussion. older ≠ wiser 12:35, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think this page should be called Hydra (disambiguation) and the page about the monster from Greek mythology should just be Hydra. No doubt that's what most people are looking for when they search for "Hydra". --dllu 12:36, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the page was created for Hydra (genus), and recently recast as a duplicate of Hydra, Saronic Islands, so there may yet be some doubt as to what the primary topic should be. -- JHunterJ 12:48, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
