== [[enclosure (disambiguation)]] ==

Is there no 'guideline-friendly' way to list the different types of 'enclosure' wikipedia describes: in going through references to the word [[enclosure]], I found many mis-links (including for example one from an article about a boeing plane about an 'enclosure' of some component involved in a failiure), and subtle ones relating where it's not quite clear if it's a physical object such as a wall or the 'legal process of ...' mentioned in the main [[enclosure]] article. they look highly ambiguous to me because they're often in 'historical-place' related articles. I sense what i'm really after is a 'search index' and yes I know the guidelines state 'a disambiguation page is not a search index' but it seems to me these pages can perform this function, they should (these 'mis-links' wouldn't have happened if [[enclosure]] itself was the disambiguation), so it seems like it's the best place to list *everything*. I had also tried moving a subset off to another place ('animal enclosure') but that also met resistance. [[User:MfortyoneA|MfortyoneA]] ([[User talk:MfortyoneA|talk]]) 16:28, 28 September 2017 (UTC)

Is there no 'guideline-friendly' way to list the different types of 'enclosure' wikipedia describes: in going through references to the word enclosure, I found many mis-links (including for example one from an article about a boeing plane about an 'enclosure' of some component involved in a failiure), and subtle ones relating where it's not quite clear if it's a physical object such as a wall or the 'legal process of ...' mentioned in the main enclosure article. they look highly ambiguous to me because they're often in 'historical-place' related articles. I sense what i'm really after is a 'search index' and yes I know the guidelines state 'a disambiguation page is not a search index' but it seems to me these pages can perform this function, they should (these 'mis-links' wouldn't have happened if enclosure itself was the disambiguation), so it seems like it's the best place to list *everything*.
