Talk:Crow (disambiguation)

Since the word Crow has a number of meanings, I turned this into a disambugation page. I moved the original article on the type of animal called crow to Crow (Animal), and I moved the original talk page that was here over to that page as well.

That seems a bit extreme to me. Wouldn't it be better to keep the article on the bird here, and then have a disambiguation page at Crow (disambiguation)? - Nat Krause 05:35, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)

I think since it has already been done it's better to keep this as the disambugation page. And I think it's a little bit more efficent to do it like this, if a user goes to crow with the intention of seeing one of the articles not related to the bird then they would have to manually click on a link to reach the disambugation page, then click on the link found on that page to go to the article they intended. This way, they only have to click on one additional link instead of three links.

I disagree. There needs to be a Crow (disambiguation) page. When one use of the word so outshadows the alternate meaning, this is generally the rule. Most people are talking about the bird when they say "crow". The movie "The Crow" would most likely be looked-up as "The Crow" when doing a search. The only time someone might simply type in "crow" without any qualifiers is for the tribe. In such an instance, he or she would more likely type in "Crow tribe", in which case we should create the page Crow tribe as a redirect. I have to agree with Nat on this. --Corvun 07:49, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC) (Just realized my handle might betray my POV on the subject)

I vote for a separate Crow (disambiguation) page. Crow must be a bird. — Monedula 08:17, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)
