Grand Slam[edit]
Hi, John F. You recently added an entry about the term "grand slam" as used in bridge to the Grand Slam disambiguation page. As there is no article specific to that that term (i.e. Grand Slam (bridge)) nor is it the most common use of the term "grand slam", the disambiguation manual of style specifies that entry should not have been added to the top of the list. So, I moved it below the article entries that directly contain the topic phrase and tweaked it to be a sentence fragment without punctuation as specified (I know it sounds counter-intuitive at first). After reading through MOS:DAB, consider yourself invited to join the disambiguation project and help clean up dab pages you run across. Happy editing. Gwguffey (talk) 02:44, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
