I am not extremely happy of creation of the separate article [[Mutsuhito]]. IMO no big need to say that a name can be a Japanese male first name. Policy that comes into mind: Wikipedia is not a dictionary. (nor an almanach). The info thus written on the page is unencyclopedic, IMO.

:I agree. What really irritates me, though, is that this page was created as a disambiguation page. Disambiguation pages are created in Wikipedia to "resolve ambiguity--meaning the conflicts that occur when articles about two or more topics have the same natural title." While I don't really mind such name/disambiguation pages as [[Aiko]], where there are at least two notable people with the name [[Aiko]], this disambiguation page is useless because there is zero amiguity existing. That is, there's no other notable Mutsuhito in existence in the world. This disambiguation page should really be a redirect to [[Meiji Emperor]]. Even if someone of minor importance named Mutsuhito makes his way into Wikipedia, this redirect should remain as most people searching for "Mutsuhito" would be searching for the Japanese Emperor; a separate page specifically for disambiguation should then be created (e.g. [[Mutsuhito (disambiguation)]]).

::I don't think it was created that way. I just checked the history and this page started as a redirect, then Emperor Meiji's article was moved here, then it was moved out and changed back to a redirect and then Gryffindor changed it to a disamibuation page. In any event, I also agree that it should not be a disambiguation page. I think doing so breaks all kinds of Wiki conventions and I agree there is no chance of confusion with anyone else. I think you were right to change it back. -[[User:Jefu|Jefu]] 08:50, August 17, 2005 (UTC) |

:::I looked through the page history and see what you mean. Thanks for the reply and clarification. :) [[User:Aoi|青い(Aoi)]] 09:03, 17 August 2005 (UTC) |
