Mountains
Silvretta panorama from the Ochsenkopf

Someone could make a disambiguation page by looking up all the various peaks in e.g. Special:PrefixIndex/Saca. I tried to distinguish the article names a few minutes ago, but the redirects and hatnotes still need to be cleaned up. --Joy (talk) 11:04, 3 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Fram I'm not sure really sure why all the reverts at Mount Sacagawea. The average English reader probably can't really distinguish any of these mountains based on whether their name has peak or peaks or mount or g or j. I doubt even that the average reader from the northwestern United States or the average geography enthusiast can do so easily. --Joy (talk) 14:44, 3 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
"All the reverts"... Anyway, there is a hatnote, what's the actual issue? In this version, some readers will need to click through, some editors will be at the right place. In your version, no one will be at the right place, but the ones at the wrong place will only need one further click instead of two.
I see you moved Sacajawea Peaks to Sacajawea Peaks (Idaho and Montana), and redirected the former to the latter. This is not a productive edit. Fram (talk) 14:51, 3 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree. By choosing to place any of these topics at any of these generally ambiguous titles we risk surprising readers. A beneficial effect of accidentally navigating some portion of readers correctly has to be weighed against a detrimental effect of having some other portion of readers frustrated that they ended up in the wrong place. --Joy (talk) 15:26, 3 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
