This needs to become a disambiguation page[edit]

"Squamish" as primarily article-ized as simply a wind won't do, given the importance of the Squamish people and their language; this whole page needs to become a disambig, with the content in the opening here moved to Squamish (wind).

I'll repeat the above comment and hope some BC editors take note; when I first found this the Squamish wind was the only thing here; can't even remember if the town of Squamish, never mind the nation, had the stub. Even though the wind is the etymology (not sure, actually; have to ask the Squamish Nation language folks) it's not its primary meaning; and now that somebody's brought up 43-man Squamish and the Squamish fraternity at Rutgers, which should go to the disambig page of course, so should the wind; or rather, this page should be the disambig and Squamish (wind) should be its own page - Squamish wind without the brackets being technically redundant although potentially an English usage (as in Mistral wind etc.Skookum1 16:19, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. A disambig page is the most appropriate result when a WP reader requests "Squamish". --Ds13 16:40, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I think it should redirect to the town - which is by far the most frequent use of the word. There can be a dab link at the top to Squamish (disambiguation). Fishhead64 15:48, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

orphaned talkpage, I think[edit]

I got here bychance, trying to go to Talk:Squamish but I was looking really for Talk:Squamish (disambiguation); the main Squamish link is now a redirect to the town as discussed; but this is where its old talkpage redirects to; what do we do with this content, transfer it over there, or is this page an archive of the discussion to transfer and its stays here?Skookum1 (talk) 06:33, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
