I stopped by the Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links page and decided to try my hand at one of the listed To Do items:
Wizard of Oz1
  • I looked at one that was a cartoon - was it referring to the 1939 movie (best known) or the original book?
  • Another mentioned Wizard of Oz as a nickname, but went on to explain where the nickname came from - is this referential to the character?
·
Finishing up work I started yesterday:
James Avery16Most of them for James L. Avery, Sr., who is credited as 'James Avery'. I couldn't decide whether to link them with his full name or his credited name, so I ended up doing some of each.
Chris Brown20I know know more about Chris Brown (musician) than I ever had any desire to know.
James Evans4I posted a note on Talk:James Evans after doing this work because it seems to be a name that needs a disambiguation page

2-Oct-6

[edit]
I randomly selected some names from the Category:Lists of ambiguous human names page and worked through them:
Chris Brown4Picked off some low hanging fruit. This was the first time I'd seen a list of more than 50 links to disambiguate
Joseph Braithwaite0
Thomas Boggs1
James Boggs5Somehow I got logged out and these were recorded with my IP address
Howard Malcolm Baldrige0
Robert Atkins2Both dietician
Pedro Araya0
James Avery0Note: Need to go back
Mark Andrews (disambiguation)0
Willie Anderson1My last name
Walter Anderson0My last name
Tom Anderson1The MySpace guy
Tim Anderson0My last name
Thomas Anderson0My last name
Scott Anderson0My last name
Ryan Anderson0My last name
Roy Anderson0My last name
I started this because I went to High School with one of these guys and decided it would make more sense for his links to go to his page instead of the disambigution page:
Ryan Miller8
James Evans (actor)1Went back later
John Goodman (football)1
