– Having both Muzzle device and Muzzle (device) is just weird and confusing. Propose:

  1. Move Muzzle to Muzzle (disambiguation)
  2. After page move above, redirect Muzzle to Snout per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC
  3. Move Muzzle (device) to Muzzle (mouth guard) per WP:NCDAB. These can cover human mouths, not just animals. "Device" fails to disambiguate it from many other muzzle devices. The OED uses the phrase "openwork guard"
  4. Move Muzzle device to Muzzle attachment (disambiguation). There are many "muzzle devices", including mouth guards. Front sights are also devices on a gun's muzzle, or muzzle devices, but they're not muzzle attachments such as flash suppressors or silencers.
  5. Spit hood/spit mask should include not just human versions, but those used for camels and llamas.
  6. Hatnotes all around

  • Comment It looks like my solution isn't going over very well, but don't let that stop anyone from propsing one or more other ways of cleaning up this situation. These dab pages and redirects obviously need work, so do fix them. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 02:51, 30 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
