General Taxonomy

[edit]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't there be a link to Taxonomy (general) somewhere on this disambiguation page? It seems as if there should be. APerson241 (talk) 02:14, 9 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There is now, but it has no description. It needs to be explained, as the "general" tag alone is insufficient. Powers T 13:34, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation

[edit]

As of today, 02:08, 4 May 2013 (UTC), all of the Mainspace What links here links have been disambiguated by the folks over at the Disambiguation Project. Back in March when I found this page a redirect to Taxonomy (biology), there were about 3600 What links here links. Today there are less than a thousand links with just a few to the Portal: and Book: namespaces and the rest to User: and Project: namespaces. I am noting this because I almost reverted the move over concern for the great number of articles that had links to this page, and I don't want others to come along and revert the move before realizing that all those links have already been fixed. – PAINE ELLSWORTH CLIMAX! 02:08, 4 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal

[edit]

I propose to merge Taxonomy into Taxonomy (general) and rename the page Taxonomy. Taxonomy as it stands is classified as a disambiguation page but it is a long way from being "a non-article page that lists and links to encyclopedia articles covering topics that could have had the same title" (WP:DPAGE). There's probably only one other article that could feasibly stand as "Taxonomy" and that's Taxonomy (biology). The other entries are just examples of the use of taxonomy, and I propose to list them as such in the merged article. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 11:05, 3 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
