Hatnote

[edit]

I noticed the hatnote was removed. The cited policy says that hatnotes are not necessary if the name are not ambiguous. However, it seems to me that "K.C. Jones" and "K.C. Jones" are, well, the same name, and folks looking for the basketball coach may end up here. Or do I misunderstand the policy? ThanksJohnelwayrules (talk) 23:20, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. - K.C. Jones (the basketball coach) was a star football player -- at least in high school -- probably no room for confusion, but why not give readers the option?Johnelwayrules (talk) 23:24, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I interpret (which may not necessarily be correct) WP:NAMB that if there is an article that is already disambiguated, such as K. C. Jones (American football), the hatnote is not needed, since you had to type in the "American football" portion or click on a wlink that one can assume is correct. K. C. Jones definitely needs the hatnote since it's ambiguous which KC Jones the article is talking about. — X96lee15 (talk) 01:22, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
