Talk:The nails

Redirecting to dab page[edit]

I have reverted the retargeting of this to Nail. That was not particularly helpful as that dab page has a great many entries, but there are only two entries that could possibly mean "the nails". Arguably, there should be disambiguation between The Nails (band) and the merchants tables but that would at best mean a disambiguation page of just two entries (which we mostly try and avoid) and besides "The Nails" is already disambiguated by capitalisation. I have added a hatnote to the target for further disambiguation. Spinning Spark 23:25, 7 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:DISAMBIG, if there is a broadbased term, then the term including its pluralism needs to go to the disambig page including its definite article versions. --Oakshade (talk) 03:22, 8 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, the guideline is not quite that prescriptive. I think we would serve our readers better with a disambiguation for just "the nails" (nothing else on "nail" is a likely target), but I'm not going to go to war over it. Spinning Spark 08:41, 8 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
