User:CorenSearchBot was not mistaken in tagging the accompanying article with {{csb-wikipage}}, but it might be worth having it tag a little slower, especially when the titles differ only as to having the sfx " (disambiguation)" or not.

Possible addl entries edit

I expect these verbs not likely to be encyclopedic, & perhaps Wikt candidates:

  • In grassroots political campaigning, especially in AIDS advocacy, the tactic of asking pointed questions to political candidates in public forums, with the intent to elicit public promises from the candidate for better policy
  • The term "bird dog" can be used as a verb to refer to the action of someone riding in the back of a pick-up truck or in the tailgate of an SUV.
  • The term "bird dog" can be used in project management as a verb to describe the actions of an individual who ensures that all aspects of the project are seen through to completion.

The corresponding entries of course need to be radically shortened if they do become entries on the accompanying Dab page.

  • Used in the trucking industry - especially on the CB radio as truckers talk to each other.

A bird dog can be noun which means a radar detector.(Taken from Urban dictionary) Example from Steve Earle's song "Guitar Town": "I'm just out of Austin bound for San Antone With the radio blasting and the bird dog on" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.230.203.161 (talk) 15:17, 26 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
