Moving[edit]

Forgive me if I'm being ignorant, but I believe that KBS is most used for Korean Broadcasting System. Most of pages linked to KBS were for that page, and I spent quite a lot of time disambiguating all those pages; they numbered over a 100. I may sound annoyed, and I am a bit, but more than that, I was just wondering why it was moved without discussion. The Korean Broadcasting System page clearly had a disambiguation link at the top of the page. The other uses of KBS are relatively minor in comparison; looking at those pages, they're not as notable as Korean Broadcasting System is.

It's fine if I'm wrong. And I don't necessarily want a revert, because all the pages link to the full name now. It's just the principle. If the main use for an acronym is a certain ... "thing", then the link should redirect there. FBI directly goes to the Federal Bureau of Investigation; that page has a disambiguation link at the top. This is what Korean Broadcasting System had until recently. It's also because this change affected a LOT of pages that simply linked KBS. In such a case, talking about it beforehand would be greatly appreciated. :) SKS2K6 02:13, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm the one who made this page a disambiguation page. I'm sorry I should have checked "what links here" and discussed it first. I was searching Kyoto Broadcasting System and typed KBS in the search box. Because it did not lead to the desired page nor the disambiguation page, I thought it's appropriate to make KBS a dab page. Until then, I did not know there is KBS in Korea and how commonly KBS is used to refer to the Korean company. I'm not going to oppose if this page is to be a redirect again. --Kusunose 09:48, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, it's okay now. It's just that there was a link was at the top of Korean Broadcasting System, for all other KBSs. KBS is most used for that network, at least on Wikipedia. It's the most notable. SKS2K6 19:26, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
