Metro M1 (Prague) → Metro M1 – No need to disambiguate – Midas02 (talk) 02:02, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:09, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Midas02: Keeping the disambiguator would help clarity. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:09, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. "Metro M1" can be changed from a redirect into a disambiguation page. "Metro M1" can refer to many other Metros, including Milan Metro Line 1, M1 (Istanbul Metro), M1 (Copenhagen), Bucharest Metro Line M1, and many others. Khestwol (talk) 09:23, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment even if "... (Prague)" was not a disambiguator, this would still be useful for topic clarification. Greg Kaye 10:21, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose clearly ambiguous (Prague) is essential. In ictu oculi (talk) 11:24, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Anthony Appleyard, Greg, for future purpose, your comments are fair, but they are not WP policy. Disambiguators are only used to disambiguate, they are not intended to provide additional information, see WP:TITLE and WP:DAB. So as long as there is no article ON Wikipedia with the same title/similar meaning, the disambiguator should not be used. --Midas02 (talk) 15:30, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Khestwol's suggestion is valuable, that's what I'll quickly implement then, and this move request can be CLOSED.

User:Midas02 "So as long as there is no article ON Wikipedia with the same title/similar meaning, the disambiguator should not be used. --Midas02 (talk) 15:30, 10 May 2015 (UTC)" that's not correct, WP:DAB clearly says otherwise.
