[edit]

This page contains a great deal of information which does not belong on a disambiguation page, according to the Manual of Style for disambiguation pages. I propose creating a separate Bourne (placename) page and moving information across there, leaving only articles called Bourne on this page. Comments, anyone?

I've now done this, and also created Bourne (surname) for people with the surname Bourne. CarolGray 16:17, 14 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The placename page has been merged back in as an incomplete disambiguation. bd2412 T 15:30, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that such a long lead makes it hardly useful as a disambiguation page. I've moved the text to the section it belongs to, but of course this is unconventional: ideally, your solution (of putting the place-name meaning and articles in a separate page) is what should be followed. Don't know why it was merged back! Shreevatsa (talk) 15:19, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Moved information

[edit]

I moved the facts about the word bourne to a new article, Bourne (stream). Arms Jones (talk) 16:05, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
