Untitled[edit]

There is no page for exact. The exact page is routed automatically to extortion. I don't believe that exact and extortion are by far words with the same meaning. Exact means precisely.Ericvk8 (talk) 10:55, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. Even for the use meaning "to get something from another against their will" a common use is "to exact revenge" which has nothing to do with extortion. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 12:51, 15 March 2016 (UTC).[reply]

Exact (disambiguation) → Exact – I agree with the comments above; this is a very ambiguous word, and even the supposed primary-topic verb usage doesn't have an, ahem, exact target. The mathematics usages are also highly significant, for example. There's no primary topic here. --BDD (talk) 18:31, 25 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support as the creator of the disambiguation page. I was initially fairly surprised that "Exact" redirected to Extortion, but assumed that there was previous consensus for that. SST flyer 07:47, 27 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
