Organisation by subject[edit]

Twice now I've tried to organise this page according to subject, with economics first, then cosmology, then everything else. This is because there are at least two economics meanings of "inflation" and at least two cosmology ones. I've also just realised that inflaton should also be on here, since it's a one-letter typo for "inflation" and (obviously) is a closely related topic, but I see no non-awkward way to do this—or for others to add other economics meanings of "inflation"—unless the page is organised by subject. I'd like to see an explanation of why this is thought unacceptable (if in fact it is). False vacuum (talk) 22:47, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There are only 5 disambiguation entries on the page. There is no need for categories. If you really want to add categories, please do so following the style prescribed by the MOS. See Obama (disambiguation) for reference. LK (talk) 02:55, 2 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Response: (1) There are six entries now, I have already suggested a seventh (above), and part of my point was that there are likely to be others added—especially ones that relate to economics or cosmology. Please (re)read what I wrote. (2) This isn't about me. It's about the disambiguation page. I'm trying to make it as useful as possible, particularly with regard to the subjects I understand. (3) Kindly stop implicitly accusing me of violating the Manual of Style. I have carefully read MOS:DAB, and I have ensured that my edits have been reasonably compliant with it. N.b. that compliance is a goal secondary to that of usefulness, if the two should happen to conflict (this view has official sanction: see the final section of the page).
